Ernie Banks hit a homerun as the Chicago-NL Cubs defeated the Cincinnati Reds
in 10 innings 4 to 3 at Crosley Field.
The game was deadlocked at 3 after nine full innings. Chicago-NL was
victorious in the 10th inning. After an out was recorded, Banks smashed a
bases-empty 'big-fly'. Chicago-NL banged out 8 hits on the afternoon.
Whitey Ford(20-3) picked up the victory, allowing 3 runs in 9 innings. Ford
got help from Dixie Howell who was credited with his 6th save. Willard
Schmidt(16-4) was charged with the loss in relief.
'I was a little good, a little bad and a little ugly.' said Ford, 'I was just
giving us a chance to win.'
