Hodges had a big evening at the plate. He popped a two-run clout over the fence in the 5th inning, banged out a single bringing home two baserunners in the 6th inning and laced a one-base hit in the 8th inning. Cleveland finished with 14 hits while Pittsburgh ended up with 2. The win was credited to Bob Lemon(17-8) who went 7 innings allowing 3 runs. Joe Dobson(3-13) took the loss. He pitched 6 innings giving up 7 hits and 3 walks. Wth the win Cleveland now has a record of a league leading 81-41. Pittsburgh will hope that this loss is only a 'blip' on their recent 8-2 run - and not a start of a new trend.
