Al Dark had 3 base hits and 3 RBI as the incredible Pittsburgh Pirates
outscored the floundering Cincinnati Reds 6 to 5.
Ruben Gomez(12-5) gave Pittsburgh a solid outing. He was reached for 3 hits
and 3 walks in 7 innings. Cincinnati made it exciting in the 9th, but they
were unable to push the needed runs across.
Hal Newhouser earned his 12th save. Ray Crone(0-1) took the loss. He was hit
hard and gave up 15 hits and 6 walks in 8 innings.
In another of a string of victories, Pittsburgh extended their winning streak
to 6 games. Andy Spector was thrilled following the game -- 'We're really on
a roll now. These guys are playing their hearts out and I couldn't be
happier for them!'
