TEAM RISP- Indians: 4 for 16 Reds: 1 for 4
The Cincinnati Reds halted a 5 game slide and nipped the Cleveland Indians 5
to 4 at Crosley Field in a hard fought contest.
In the 3rd inning Cincinnati scored 2 runs with the help of 3 hits. The key
offensive moment was provided by Ted Kluszewski who made the crowd come alive
when he smashed a two-run homer. Cleveland made it exciting in the 9th, but
they were unable to push the needed runs across.
The victory was credited to Bob Porterfield(12-5) who went 7 innings, allowing
3 runs. Porterfield got help from Ernie Johnson who was credited with his
23rd save. Tom Morgan(2-5) absorbed the loss. He allowed Cincinnati 5 runs
in 4 innings of work.
'It's been a rough ride lately, but this was a good win for us' said Rob
Hickok, 'Maybe this will put us back on track.'
