WEB GEMS- Top 5th: Hal Jeffcoat robbed Ken Keltner of a Homerun!
Hal Newhouser took a no-hitter into the 7th inning as the Washington Nationals
topped the hopeless Philadelphia Phillies by a score of 2 to 1 at Shibe
Park.
Newhouser(12-6) was tremendous on the mound for Washington. He surrendered
only 2 hits and 2 walks in 9 innings. The left-handed Newhouser lost his
no-hit bid when Stan Musial tripled with one out in the 7th inning.
Washington had only 3 hits for the afternoon.
Bill Wight(2-9) absorbed the loss. He couldn't find the plate, issuing 9
walks in 6 innings. 'Newhouser gave us exactly what we needed today.' Gordy
Renaud said. 'When he threw the fastball he threw it for strikes. They were
really fooled by his change. Most of the time he had them chasing it.'
