31,564 fans were treated to a fine game at Forbes Field as only one run
separated the combatants at game's end. The Pittsburgh Pirates plated 6 runs
in the 7th inning and won by the slimmest of margins, 8 to 7.
Frank Smith(1-1) was brilliant in relief and registered the victory. He was
flawless in relief in his 1 inning. New York-AL threatened in the 9th but
Pittsburgh was able to put down the rally.
Ellis Kinder recorded the save, his 4th. Carl Erskine(1-4) ended up with the
loss in relief. He pitched 1 and 1/3 innings and surrendered 2 hits and no
walks.
