Both teams were tied at 1 runs apiece after nine innings. Cincinnati won the game in the 11th inning. After an out was recorded, Spider Jorgensen jump-started the rally as he drew a walk. After another out, Enos Slaughter came to bat and lifted one out of the park for a two run home run. Cincinnati took care of Pittsburgh with no trouble in the bottom of the 11th. Satchel Paige(4-3) got credit for the victory, pitching 3 innings and allowing no runs. Preacher Roe was credited with his 26th save. Ewell Blackwell(7-8) was the loser in relief. He allowed 3 hits and 2 walks in 3 innings.
