Virgil Trucks carried a no-hitter into the 7th inning at Shibe Park where the
Philadelphia Phillies beat the Washington Nationals by the score of 5 to
0.

It was a good day for Philadelphia thanks to Vic Wertz.  He lined a single in
the 1st inning, ripped a one-base hit which brought home a run in the 5th
inning and rifled a three-run blast in the 7th inning.  Philadelphia banged
out 11 hits on the afternoon.  

Trucks(2-0) was credited with the shutout. The right-handed Trucks lost his
no-hit bid when Bobby Doerr singled with two outs in the 7th inning.  Don
Newcombe(1-2) was the losing pitcher.  He got hammered, allowing 10 hits and
3 walks in 6 innings.  

'Trucks was the man today,' Mark McGonigle said. 'He had just about every
pitch working.'
