Whitney led the offense for Boston. He stroked a single knocking in a run in the 2nd inning, delivered a solo blast (his 16th of the season) in the 4th inning and doubled in the 8th inning. Boston lit up the scoreboard in the 8th inning scoring 4 runs. Offensively, Boston was a juggernaut. They scored in 6 separate innings. Betts(10-13) lasted until the end allowing 2 runs for the win. Curt Davis(12-16) was given the loss. He was unable to control the Boston offense and allowed 10 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings. BROOKLYN AT NEW YORK Dodgers......... 0 1 0 0 1 2 0 0 0 3 - 7 13 1 Giants.......... 0 0 0 2 0 1 1 0 0 0 - 4 7 3 Win:Mungo(12-21) Loss:Hubbell(24-10) Homeruns- G.Watkins(3rd), R.Parmelee(4th) Left fielder Danny Taylor had 3 base hits and scored 3 times and Van Lingle Mungo completed the game without help from the bullpen as the Brooklyn Dodgers outscored the New York Giants in 10 innings 7 to 4. The score was knotted at 4 after nine innings. Brooklyn came out on top in the 10th inning. After two were out Tony Cuccinello initiated the scoring spurt when he banged out a single. Taylor stepped up next and he stroked a one-base hit. Joe Stripp then drew a walk to load the bases. Al Lopez stepped in and he doubled, and an error was also committed, clearing all three ducks off the pond. Brooklyn had a total of 13 hits for the game. Mungo(12-21), allowing 4 runs for the game, picked up the victory. Carl Hubbell(24-10) was the loser in relief. He was knocked around pretty good, giving up 3 runs in 2 innings. CINCINNATI AT ST. LOUIS Reds............ 0 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 - 3 11 2 Cardinals....... 0 0 1 1 0 0 1 2 - 5 11 1 Win:Dean(16-9) Loss:Kolp(5-5) Paul Dean went the distance at Sportsman's Park as the seemingly unstoppable St. Louis Cardinals beat the struggling Cincinnati Reds by the count of 5 to 3. Dean(16-9) pitched well for St. Louis in their victory. He allowed 11 hits and 2 walks in 9 innings. St. Louis and Cincinnati each finished the afternoon with 11 hits.

Red Lucas(10-9) went 8 and 2/3 innings allowing 7 runs for the win. Lucas got help from Bill Swift who was credited with his 2nd save. Jim Weaver(9-10) took the loss. He got hit pretty hard, allowing 10 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings.
