WEB GEMS- Bot 9th: Bobby Thomson robbed Carl Scheib of an extra base hit.
Bobby Thomson had 4 hits and 3 RBI as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the
Philadelphia-AL Athletics 13 to 8 at Shibe Park.
Thomson enjoyed a big day at the plate. He smashed a solo-shot out of the
park in the 4th inning, ripped a base-knock which scored a run in the 6th
inning, lined a one-base hit in the 8th inning and stroked a base-hit in the
9th inning. Pittsburgh kept the scorekeepers busy in the 5th inning when
they had 4 runs on 5 hits. Philadelphia-AL scored in 5 different innings,
but their shaky pitching kept them from victory.
Billy Pierce(4-5) picked up the victory, allowing 6 runs in 7 and 1/3 innings.
Ellis Kinder gained credit for his 5th save. Mike Garcia(7-3) ended up with
the loss. He surrendered 12 hits and 1 walk in 6 innings.
