Hal Newhouser had a complete game at Griffith Stadium where the Washington Nationals beat the Pittsburgh Pirates by the score of 5 to 2. Washington drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning when they tallied 3 runs on 2 hits. That early run support was all that Newhouser(8-9) required. Pittsburgh had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short. Eddie Lopat(5-8) absorbed the loss. He allowed 8 hits and 5 walks in 6 innings. 'We didn't get the key hits when we needed them' Andy Spector said. 'We did what we could, we just didn't pull out the win. What can you say?'
