Ken Raffensberger pitched 8 strong innings at Crosley Field where the
Cincinnati Reds beat the Philadelphia-AL Athletics by the score of 4 to
3.

Raffensberger(1-1) pitched a solid game.  He allowed just 3 hits and 2 walks
in 8 innings dropping his ERA from 2.31 to 1.83.  Philadelphia-AL tried
unsuccessfully to come back in the 9th.  

Raffensberger got relief help from Preacher Roe who gained credit for his 3rd
save.  Bob Lemon(0-1) was hit with the loss.  Rob Hickok was in a talkative
mood in the clubhouse, 'Great game! If only we could win all of the close
ones - wouldn't that be nice! Since that's not going to happen, I think I'll
savor this one for a little while.'
