The home town fans were very appreciative of the fine hitting performance provided by Burgess. He slapped a single in the 1st inning, belted a three-run homer in the 3rd inning, smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' in the 4th inning and slapped a base-hit in the 7th inning. New York-AL and Cincinnati each finished the afternoon with 13 hits. The win went to Herm Wehmeier(4-4) who allowed 2 runs in 6 innings. Don Gross earned the save, his 4th. Tom Poholsky(3-6) was the losing pitcher. By giving up 7 runs in 5 innings his ERA increased from 4.32 to 4.90. With this win, New York-AL has a 20-36 record. They have been 5-5 lately. Rob Hickok was unhappy with his club's recent performance. 'We can't keep losing games' he said. 'It gets to be embarrassing after a while.'
