NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1957 National League Date: 4/23/1957

CHICAGO AT MILWAUKEE Cubs............ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 - 1 5 1 Braves.......... 1 0 0 2 0 0 0 1 - 4 6 0 Win:Buhl(1-0) Loss:Rush(0-2) Bob Buhl went the distance as the Milwaukee Braves defeated the Chicago Cubs by a score of 4 to 1 at County Stadium. Buhl(1-0) was very good in the win. He didn't give up much, just 5 hits and 2 walks in 9 innings. Milwaukee had just 6 hits for the afternoon. The losing pitcher was Bob Rush(0-2). He pitched 7 innings and surrendered 4 hits and 3 walks. CINCINNATI AT ST. LOUIS Redlegs......... 5 0 1 0 1 0 1 0 2 - 10 12 1 Cardinals....... 1 0 1 2 2 5 0 1 - 12 16 2 Win:Jackson(1-0) Loss:Nuxhall(0-1) Save:Wilhelm(1st) Homeruns- G.Crowe(1st), E.Bailey(1st), K.Boyer-2(2nd) Ken Boyer slammed 2 homeruns as the St. Louis Cardinals defeated the Cincinnati Redlegs 12 to 10 at Sportsman's Park. Boyer was a one-man wrecking crew. He delivered a base-hit resulting in a run in the 1st inning, smashed a two-run homer in the 5th inning and cleared the bases with a Grand Slam homerun (his 2nd of the season) in the 6th inning. Due to a poorly pitched ballgame, scoring in 5 different innings was still not enough for Cincinnati to come away with the victory. Larry Jackson(1-0) got the win allowing 3 runs in 7 innings. Hoyt Wilhelm recorded his 1st save. Joe Nuxhall(0-1) was the losing pitcher. He got hit hard, allowing 12 hits and 3 walks in 5 innings. 'It's almost like the ball was trying to hit my bat,' Boyer said. 'Whenever I would swing, the ball found the sweet spot.' PITTSBURGH AT NEW YORK Pirates......... 0 1 0 1 0 0 4 0 1 - 7 9 0 Giants.......... 0 0 0 0 3 0 0 0 0 - 3 11 1 Win:King(1-2) Loss:Gomez(0-2) Save:Face(2nd) Homeruns- D.Groat(1st) Catcher Hank Foiles had 2 base hits as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the New York Giants by the score of 7 to 3 at Polo Grounds. Nellie King(1-2) pitched well enough in relief to get the win. He was reached for 4 hits and 2 walks in 3 and 2/3 innings lowering his ERA to 3.60. Pittsburgh banged out 9 on the afternoon. King got help from Roy Face who was credited with his 2nd save. Ruben Gomez(0-2) took the loss. He surrendered 6 runs and 8 hits in 7 innings. PHILADELPHIA AT BROOKLYN Phillies........ 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 - 1 4 0 Dodgers......... 1 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 - 2 5 2 Win:Craig(1-0) Loss:Hearn(0-1) Homeruns- E.Bouchee(1st), C.Furillo(3rd) Roger Craig tossed a complete game as the Brooklyn Dodgers defeated the Philadelphia Phillies by the score of 2 to 1 at Ebbets Field. Brooklyn drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning scoring a single run using 2 hits. Brooklyn had just 5 hits for the night. Craig(1-0) lasted until the end allowing 1 run for the win. Jim Hearn(0-1) took the loss. He surrendered just 5 hits and no walks in 8 innings.
