TEAM RISP- Athletics: 9 for 24 Reds: 3 for 5
WEB GEMS- Bot 5th: Gil Hodges robbed Grady Hatton of a base hit.
Jim Piersall slammed 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI and Bob Lemon had a strong
outing as the Philadelphia-AL Athletics crushed the Cincinnati Reds 22 to
5.
Piersall was a source of great heartache for the Cincinnati faithful all day.
He just kept pounding out hits! He clubbed a solo home run in the 5th inning,
doubled in the 7th inning, doubled bringing in a run in the 8th inning and
blasted a solo shot in the 9th inning. Philadelphia-AL kept the scorekeepers
busy in the 5th inning when they had 7 runs on 8 hits and the 7th inning
which saw them plate 5 runs on 3 hits. Philadelphia-AL dominated offensively
as they scored in 6 different innings.
Lemon(12-7) allowed no runs in 6 innings, and picked up the victory. Lemon got
help from Camilo Pascual who was credited with his 4th save. Bob
Keegan(6-11) was tagged with the loss. He served up 3 gopher balls in 3
innings.
'I didn't feel that good when I came to the park today,' Piersall said. 'I'm
glad I decided to play!'
