WEB GEMS- Top 7th: Buddy Kerr robbed Del Ennis of a base hit.

Preacher Roe pitched 7 strong innings as the Cincinnati Reds beat the New York
Yankees by a score of 4 to 2.

Cincinnati had 2 runs cross the plate in the bottom of the 7th inning.  The
crucial at-bat was provided by Eddie Robinson who elicited a roar from the
hometown fans when he ripped a base-knock plating two runs.  Cincinnati
out-hit New York for the game, 9 hits to 3.  

The winning pitcher was Roe(3-1) who allowed 2 runs in 7 innings. Ted Wilks
gained credit for his 5th save.  Ken Raffensberger(3-2) was the loser.
