WEB GEMS- Top 2nd: Harvey Kuenn robbed Bill Virdon of a base hit.
Top 5th: Roy Campanella blocked the plate, saving a run!
Ted Kluszewski launched 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI as the Cincinnati Reds bested
the Washington Nationals 7 to 2 at Griffith Stadium.
Kluszewski was a source of great heartache for the Washington faithful all
day. He just kept pounding out hits! He lofted a three-run bomb in the 1st
inning, doubled in the 3rd inning, blasted a solo shot in the 5th inning and
lined a base-hit in the 6th inning. Cincinnati had 15 hits overall, while
Washington had 8.
Tom Poholsky(8-3) picked up the victory, allowing 1 run in 6 innings. Ray
Crone was credited with his 2nd save. Murry Dickson(6-7) was given the loss.
He got hit hard, allowing 15 hits and 7 walks in 8 innings.
'I felt great out there today,' Kluszewski said, 'Maybe I should make a
regular habit of getting to bed on time!'
