TEAM RISP- Nationals: 4 for 13  Reds: 4 for 15

Roy Campanella smacked 3 homeruns and had 6 RBI at Crosley Field as the
Washington Nationals came back dramatically to top the Cincinnati Reds by the
score of 13 to 11.

Washington had the winning rally in the 9th inning as they scored 4 runs on 4
base hits.  Washington provided plenty of action in the 5th inning with 4
runs on 5 hits and the 9th inning which saw them plate 4 runs on 4 hits.  Joe
Nuxhall was perfect in relief and got the save, his 5th.  

Roy Face(1-1) got credit for the victory, pitching 4 and 1/3 innings and
allowing 1 run. Paul Minner(2-5) was the loser in relief.  

'The only way this one could have been better', said Face, 'was if we had
played it at home.'
