Buck Weaver homered and had 3 RBI at Shibe Park where the Washington Nationals
beat the Philadelphia-AL Athletics 5 to 4.

Washington came through with the game-winning runs in the 8th inning with 2
runs using 2 hits.  Larry Doyle led off and started the attack as he banged
out a single.  Rebel Oakes got his chance to keep things going, but he went
down on strikes.  Ed Konetchy then doubled driving in a run.  Weaver followed
next and he would ground out scoring the final run of the inning.
Philadelphia-AL had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short.

The win went to Fred Blanding(5-5) who allowed 4 runs in 7 and 1/3 innings.
Smoky Joe Wood preserved the game for Blanding, recording his his 14th save.
Joe Benz(1-1) was tagged with the loss in relief.  

Gordon Renaud was in a talkative mood in the clubhouse, 'Great game! If only
we could win all of the close ones - wouldn't that be nice! Since that's not
going to happen, I think I'll savor this one for a little while.'
