NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1957 National League Date: 5/3/1957

CHICAGO AT PHILADELPHIA Cubs............ 0 0 0 1 0 2 0 1 0 2 - 6 11 1 Phillies........ 0 0 0 2 0 0 1 1 0 0 - 4 11 1 Win:Hillman(1-1) Loss:Roberts(0-4) Homeruns- D.Long(1st), L.Walls(1st), S.Lopata(3rd) Dale Long went deep and had 4 RBI as the Chicago Cubs beat the Philadelphia Phillies in 10 innings by a score of 6 to 4. The score was tied at 4 after nine. Chicago won it in the 10th inning. Bob Speake led off the inning for Chicago when he doubled. Two outs later Lee Walls came up and he bombed a two-run dinger (his 1st of the season). The game was a wild affair with the lead changing hands 5 times. Dave Hillman(1-1) got credit for the victory, pitching 3 innings and allowing 1 run. Robin Roberts(0-4) was given the loss. He gave up 6 runs and 11 hits in 10 innings. CINCINNATI AT NEW YORK Redlegs......... 0 0 0 3 0 1 8 0 1 - 13 17 1 Giants.......... 0 0 1 0 1 0 1 2 3 - 8 12 1 Win:Klippstein(3-0) Loss:Burnside(0-3) Homeruns- G.Bell(2nd), G.Harris(3rd) Gus Bell blasted a homerun and had 4 RBI as the Cincinnati Redlegs defeated the New York Giants 13 to 8 at Polo Grounds. Bell led the offense for Cincinnati. He stroked a single in the 1st inning, doubled which was good for two runs in the 7th inning and ripping a solo home run (his 2nd of the season) in the 9th inning. Despite scoring in 5 separate innings, New York could not get the win. Johnny Klippstein(3-0) went 7 and 2/3 innings allowing 5 runs for the victory. Pete Burnside(0-3) was hit with the loss. He allowed 8 hits and 3 walks in 5 innings. MILWAUKEE AT PITTSBURGH Braves.......... 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 1 7 1 Pirates......... 0 1 1 0 2 0 3 3 - 10 17 1 Win:Kline(2-2) Loss:Burdette(0-3) Homeruns- H.Aaron(3rd), F.Thomas(3rd) Ron Kline tossed a complete game and left fielder Frank Thomas had 5 hits and 5 RBI at Forbes Field where the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Milwaukee Braves 10 to 1. It seemed that Milwaukee pitching was serving up softballs for Thomas to hit. He laced a single in the 2nd inning, stroked a base-hit scoring a run in the 3rd inning, banged out a one-base hit in the 5th inning, doubled plating a run in the 7th inning and lofted a three-run 'big-fly' (his 3rd of the season) in the 8th inning. Pittsburgh had 17 hits for the night. Kline(2-2) allowed 1 run on the game. Lew Burdette(0-3) was the losing pitcher. He surrendered 7 runs and 14 hits in 7 innings. The Pittsburgh ballclub's record now stands at 6-8. With this loss, Milwaukee has a 5-5 record of late, 6-7 overall. ST. LOUIS AT BROOKLYN Cardinals....... 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 0 - 1 9 3 Dodgers......... 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 0 - 2 3 1 Win:Podres(1-0) Loss:Wehmeier(2-2) Save:Roebuck(2nd) At Ebbets Field, the Brooklyn faithful were treated to an intriguing pitcher's duel. Johnny Podres(1-0) finally bested his St. Louis counterpart, Herm Wehmeier(2-2), by the score of 2 to 1. In the bottom of the 5th inning Brooklyn scored 2 runs. St. Louis made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across. Ed Roebuck recorded his 2nd save. Wehmeier suffered the loss. He allowed just 2 runs and 3 hits in 8 innings. 'It's a disheartening loss, no question about it' said Fred Hutchinson 'But we have to get over it and get ready for the next game.'
