WEB GEMS- Top 8th: Bill Carrigan blocked the plate, saving a run!

Cincinnati Reds won a dramatic crowd-pleaser over Philadelphia-AL Athletics at
Palace of the Fans pulling it out in their last at bats, 9 to 8.

The game was decided in the bottom of the 9th inning.  Hal Chase laced a
base-knock.  Harry Hooper stepped up next and he stroked a one-base hit.  Art
Devlin then banged out a single giving Cincinnati the win as 8,352 happy fans
joyfully celebrated.  The game was a wild affair with the lead changing hands
6 times.  

Pat Ragan(4-5) got credit for the victory, pitching 2/3 of an inning and
allowing no runs. Bert Humphries(4-5) took the loss in relief.  He gave up 3
hits and no walks without retiring a batter.
