Bob Lemon took a no-hitter into the 7th inning as the Philadelphia-AL
Athletics outscored the Chicago-NL Cubs 2 to 0.
Lemon(12-3) came through with a virtuoso performance against the Chicago-NL
hitters. He surrendered only 1 hit and 1 walk in 9 innings. The
right-handed Lemon had his no-hit bid broken up by Carl Furillo who singled
with two outs in the 7th inning. Philadelphia-AL managed only 5 hits on the
afternoon.
Leo Kiely(1-1) ended up with the loss. He was pinned with the loss despite
not allowing an earned run in his 7 and 1/3 innings of work.
'Lemon pitched a gem of a game', Ron Mead recounted. 'He kept our batters off
balance the entire game.'
