First baseman Nippy Jones had 2 base hits as the Philadelphia Phillies bested
the Pittsburgh Pirates 8 to 6 at Forbes Field.
Philadelphia came up with 7 runs in the top of the 6th inning with the help of
5 hits. The biggest moment was provided by Cass Michaels who helped quiet
the crowd when he doubled clearing all three ducks off the pond. Pittsburgh
threatened in the 9th but Philadelphia was able to put down the rally.
The win went to Art Houtteman(3-0) who allowed 1 run in 5 innings. Tiny Bonham
recorded the save, his 6th. The loss was charged to Billy Pierce(3-4). He
was not very effective, surrendering 6 runs in 5 and 1/3 innings.
