TEAM RISP- Nationals: 0 for 3 Pirates: 2 for 10
Early Wynn had 2 base hits and he pitched 8 strong innings as the indomitable
Pittsburgh Pirates bested the Washington Nationals 3 to 1 at Forbes
Field.
Pittsburgh started with a bang, jumping out to an early lead in their half of
the first scoring 2 runs on 2 hits. After two outs Walker Cooper started the
rally when he doubled. Willie Mays came next and he cleared the fences for a
two-run home run. That early scoring was all that Wynn(25-3) needed. Wynn
got relief help from Ellis Kinder who was excellent in relief and gained
credit for his 6th save.
Warren Spahn(5-10) took the loss. He got hammered, allowing 11 hits and 5
walks in 8 innings. The Pittsburgh ballclub's record now stands at a league
leading 85-53. Not able to get much going in recent weeks, Washington is 2-8
of late and now has an overall record of 47-91, worst in the league.
