Brooklyn jumped on top of Cincinnati in the 2nd inning plating one baserunner. After two were out Vic Wertz took charge himself, delivering a solo home run. Brooklyn totaled 8 hits on the afternoon. The win went to Jim Hughes(6-3) who allowed no runs in 2 and 1/3 innings. Connie Marrero(6-2) was the loser. He served up 3 gopher balls in 4 innings. Brooklyn added another win to their mounting winning streak. Roy Purcell was thrilled following the game -- 'We're really on a roll now. These guys are playing their hearts out and I couldn't be happier for them!'
