The Blues kept threatening and Raschi kept stranding them. Paige was Paige; but the Reds' hitters had clutch home runs.
Code:

COL 2 4 1

L: Ed Bahr 0-2
POG: Bobo Newsom 7 IP, 5 H, R, 3 BB, 6 K

Ed Bahr carries a no-hitter into the 7th. Too bad his Bison teammates couldn't do more with the bat.
Code:
BRO 6 8 2

The first regular season meeting between the Yankees and Dodgers.; I really intended to do a 'radio' broadcast for this game, but I think I will hold that gimmick for sometime later.
Exciting game though. Hank Wyse is well on his way to being his generation's Ed Whitson, balking home the first Dodger run of the game. Cal Abrams, who reached on Wyse's inning opening error, scored the run. They're not booing; they're yelling "Hooooooks." Hooks was given the lead in the 5th, but gave up a 3-spot in the 6th. The Yankees were done.
Hugh Casey almost imploded again but managed to strand his two walks. Curt Davis was needed to throw the 9th; possible changes coming for the Dodger's pen?
Code:
SLS 5 10 1 10th
POR 8 11 0

L: Bill Fleming 0-2

The Beavers score 3 in the 9th to tie and 3 more in the 10th to win. The Beavers are the only unbeaten team left.
Code:
PHO 2 9 1
SAC 3 7 0
W: Fred Hutchinson 2-0
L: Dizzy Dean 0-1
HR: Claude Thoby (1)
POG: Claude Thoby 2-3, 2 R, RBI, BB, K, HR
Attendance: 12,764
Dizzy Dean was ugly effective; complete game, one walk, and two strikeouts. We had a couple rallies built around an error and a misplayed bunt. Heck, Phoenix even helped by running themselves out of innings. The Salons did not deserve to win, but we'll take it.
Code:
OAK 1 3 0
SEA 6 11 2
W: Ed Heusser 1-1
L: Ralph Winegarner 0-1
POG: Ed Heusser W, 8 IP, H, 0 R, 2 BB
Attendance: 25,390
With his Rainiers holding a 1-0 lead, but threatening for more, Rogers Hornsby pinch hits for Ed Heusser. Heusser had a 1-hitter at that time, but the Rajah wanted more runs. Josh Gibson and Larry Doby have back-to-back pinch hits to key a 5-run rally. Hornsby didn't want to play them, instead choosing to showcase struggling Lennie Pearson as his "starting" Negro. The production of Gibson and Doby (5-6 combined as pinch hitters, and 8-16 overall) is going to force his hand soon.
Code:
CUB 6 13 0
WAS 1 9 4
W: Russ Bauers 1-1
L: Alex Carrasquel 0-1
POG: Bobby Sturgeon 3-5, R, 4 RBI, 3B
Attendance: 25,559
The Cubs show what they can do when they get an extra base hit or two. You need more than singles to win consistently. Of course, 4 errors by the Senators don't hurt either.
