TEAM RISP- Athletics: 7 for 15  Reds: 3 for 9

It was a wild evening in Crosley Field where the spectacular Philadelphia-AL
Athletics defeated the Cincinnati Reds by the score of 17 to 10.

Dusty Rhodes was a seemingly constant irritant to the hometown fans as he
provided much of the offense for the visitors.  He blasted a two-run home run
in the 1st inning and doubled bringing in two baserunners in the 1st inning.
Philadelphia-AL bats were very productive in the 1st inning which saw them
score 9 runs on 9 hits.  Philadelphia-AL finished with 19 hits while
Cincinnati ended up with 9.  

Johnny Antonelli(12-5) picked up the victory, allowing 9 runs in 5 innings.
Bob Porterfield(14-6) ended up with the loss.  He gave up 12 runs in 3
innings and saw his ERA jump from 3.42 to 3.89.
