In a thriller the Philadelphia-AL Athletics staged a dramatic comeback then
held on to win over the Cincinnati Reds by a score of 7 to 5 at Crosley
Field.
Philadelphia-AL came up with the deciding runs in the top of the 9th inning
when they scored 4 runs on 4 hits. The critical plate appearance was by Andy
Pafko who deflated the mood of the partisan fans when he smashed a two-run
homer. Philadelphia-AL finished with 9 hits in the victory.
The winning pitcher was Sam Zoldak(2-1) who allowed 1 run in 1/3 of an inning.
Luis Aloma gained credit for his 7th save. Frank Hiller(1-1) was charged
with the loss in relief.
'The only way this one could have been better', said Zoldak, 'was if we had
played it at home.'
