The floundering Pittsburgh Pirates endured an embarrassing pasting as a potent
Cincinnati Reds lineup tallied 17 runs while Monty Kennedy(3-4), with relief
help from Ted Wilks, allowed Pittsburgh 4 runs.

Pittsburgh was unable to climb back into it after Cincinnati went ahead for
good in the bottom of the 6th inning as they scored 5 runs on 4 base hits.
The crucial at-bat was provided by Jackie Robinson who made the home-town
crowd a happy bunch when he stroked a base-hit scoring two baserunners.
Cincinnati lit up the scoreboard in the 6th inning when they had 5 runs on 4
hits and the 8th inning with 9 runs on 10 hits.  Cincinnati had 20 hits
overall, while Pittsburgh had 8.  

Wilks earned the save, his 1st.  Allie Reynolds(2-2) was hit with the loss.
He was unable to control the Cincinnati offense and allowed 9 hits and 3
walks in 5 and 1/3 innings.  

Cincinnati now has a record of 19-16.  With this loss, Pittsburgh has a 3-7
record of late, 9-14 overall.
