Yogi Berra ripped 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI and Bob Friend completed the game
without help from the bullpen as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Brooklyn
Dodgers 12 to 3 at Ebbets Field.

Berra had a great evening at the plate.  He clubbed a two-run home run in the
1st inning, smacked a single in the 3rd inning and smacked a three-run homer
in the 6th inning.  Pittsburgh rapped out 19 hits for the night.

Friend(7-4) was the winner allowing 3 runs for the game. Harvey Haddix(5-7)
was charged with the loss.  He served up 3 gopher balls in 5 and 2/3 innings.

'I didn't feel that good when I came to the park tonight,' Berra said. 'I'm
glad I decided to play!'
