Ted Kluszewski had 4 hits and 3 RBI and Johnny Klippstein went 9 strong
innings as the Cincinnati Redlegs topped the Chicago Cubs by a score of 10 to
2 at Wrigley Field.
Kluszewski led the offense for Cincinnati. He laced a base-knock in the 1st
inning, delivered a single in the 5th inning, smashed a two-run homer (his
45th of the season) in the 7th inning and doubled knocking in a run in the
9th inning. Cincinnati finished with 14 hits in the victory.
The victory went to Klippstein(9-8) who went the distance allowing 2 runs. Bob
Rush(13-13) was hit with the loss. Cincinnati scored big getting 8 runs off
him in 6 and 2/3 innings.
'All of my pitches were working today,' Klippstein said. 'I felt really good
out there, and heck, I think I could have gone longer.'
