NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1957 National League Date: 6/15/1957

CHICAGO AT PITTSBURGH Cubs............ 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 7 - 8 11 1 Pirates......... 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 2 8 2 Win:Littlefield(1-1) Loss:Kline(5-7) Homeruns- J.Kindall(1st) Bob Speake had 2 base hits as the Chicago Cubs rallied impressively to win in dramatic style over reeling Pittsburgh Pirates, 8 to 2. A hugely decisive outburst by Chicago in the top of the 9th inning quieted any Pittsburgh hopes for a victory as they ripped Pittsburgh for 7 runs on 6 hits. The highlight belonged to Jerry Kindall who silenced the crowd when he lofted a three-run 'big-fly' (his 1st of the season). Overall Chicago out-hit Pittsburgh 11 to 8. Dick Littlefield(1-1) went 2 innings allowing no runs for the victory. Ron Kline(5-7) was the loser. Bob Scheffing was all smiles after the game, 'To pull a game out in your last at bats, is a beautiful feeling - and did you see how quiet it got out there? You could have heard a pin drop when we took the lead. But, hey, that's what makes baseball so great - as the great sage Yogi Berra says, 'it's not over 'til its over.' CINCINNATI AT NEW YORK Redlegs......... 2 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 3 - 6 9 0 Giants.......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 0 3 1 Win:Nuxhall(6-1) Loss:Miller(1-5) Homeruns- T.Kluszewski-2(3rd), W.Post(4th) Joe Nuxhall held New York scoreless on just 3 hits and first baseman Ted Kluszewski smashed 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI as the Cincinnati Redlegs beat the New York Giants by a score of 6 to 0. Kluszewski had a good evening at the plate. He cracked a two-run shot in the 1st inning, doubled in the 3rd inning and ripped a solo home run (his 3rd of the season) in the 7th inning. Cincinnati managed 9 in their victory. Nuxhall(6-1) was credited with the shutout. The loss was charged to Stu Miller(1-5). He gave up 6 hits and 5 walks in 6 innings. 'All of my pitches were working tonight,' Nuxhall said. 'I felt really good out there, and heck, I think I could have gone longer.' MILWAUKEE AT PHILADELPHIA Braves.......... 1 0 0 0 1 0 3 1 0 - 6 12 0 Phillies........ 0 0 1 0 0 0 2 0 0 - 3 10 2 Win:Spahn(7-3) Loss:Cardwell(5-3) Homeruns- E.Mathews(10th), F.Torre(2nd) Eddie Mathews had 4 hits and 2 RBI and Warren Spahn completed the game without help from the bullpen as the Milwaukee Braves defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 6 to 3 at Connie Mack Stadium. Spahn(7-3) gave Milwaukee a solid outing. He allowed 10 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings. Milwaukee totaled 12 on the night. Don Cardwell(5-3) was the losing pitcher. He allowed 9 hits and 2 walks in 6 and 2/3 innings. ST. LOUIS AT BROOKLYN Cardinals....... 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 1 4 0 Dodgers......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 0 6 2 Win:McDaniel(2-6) Loss:Newcombe(6-2) Save:Wilhelm(5th) At Ebbets Field, the Brooklyn faithful were treated to an intriguing pitcher's duel. Lindy McDaniel(2-6) finally bested his Brooklyn counterpart, Don Newcombe(6-2), by the score of 1 to 0. Newcombe gave up the game's only run when St. Louis scored in the 3rd inning. That was all McDaniel needed. St. Louis had just 4 hits for the night. Hoyt Wilhelm recorded his 5th save.
