Browning propelled Louisville to victory. He doubled plating a run in the 1st inning, blasted a solo shot in the 7th inning and cleared the fences for a two-run home run in the 9th inning. Louisville simply wore out the New York pitching staff, scoring in 6 different innings. The victory went to Mays(4-12) who went the distance allowing 4 runs. Jack Lynch(15-20) was given the loss. He was knocked around pretty good, giving up 12 runs in 9 innings. Browning said, 'It was just all timing. I had pretty good rhythm at the plate today. You've got to take advantage of mistakes when you can. A couple pitches were definitely up a little bit - right in my zone.'
