Left fielder Wally Westlake had 3 base hits as the Philadelphia-AL Athletics
rallied impressively to win in dramatic style over Philadelphia-NL Phillies,
8 to 7.
Philadelphia-AL scored the winning runs in the 9th inning scoring 5 runners on
5 hits. The biggest moment was provided by Eddie Joost who silenced the
stadium when he lost the ball over the fence for three runs. Philadelphia-AL
banged out 12 hits on the afternoon.
The win was credited to Herm Wehmeier(2-1) who went 1 inning allowing no runs.
Dutch Leonard recorded his 5th save. Joe Dobson(2-3) suffered the loss in
relief. He allowed 1 hit and no walks in 2/3 of an inning.
Jim Murphy was very happy after the game, 'It's great to come back and win it
in your last at bats! Our guys just wouldn't give up. And did you see the
fans - one minute they're laughing and screaming down all sorts of
unprintable stuff at our guys - the next minute - SILENCE! Yes sir, a very
enjoyable win this afternoon!'
