NEWSPAPER GAME STORIES FOR 1957 National League Date: 7/13/1957

CHICAGO AT PHILADELPHIA Cubs............ 0 0 0 0 1 3 0 0 1 - 5 7 0 Phillies........ 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 1 0 - 4 4 2 Win:Drabowsky(7-5) Loss:Farrell(0-4) Homeruns- C.Tanner(6th), R.Repulski(7th), C.Fernandez(7th) Moe Drabowsky took a no-hitter into the 7th inning and Walt Moryn had 2 base hits as the Chicago Cubs defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 5 to 4 at Connie Mack Stadium. The game was won by Chicago with a run in the 9th inning. After an out was recorded, Moryn drew a walk. Dale Long came to the plate and doubled. Ernie Banks then was walked intentionally to load the bases. Cal Neeman followed and he hit a sacrifice fly scoring the run. Chicago took care of Philadelphia with no trouble in the bottom of the 9th. Drabowsky(7-5) picked up the complete game victory, allowing 4 runs. The right-handed Drabowsky lost his chance for a no-hitter when Richie Ashburn singled with nobody out in the 7th inning. Turk Farrell(0-4) was the loser in relief. He gave up 1 run and 1 hit in 3 innings. MILWAUKEE AT PITTSBURGH Braves.......... 0 1 1 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 2 6 0 Pirates......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 - 0 7 1 Win:Spahn(10-5) Loss:Law(3-8) Warren Spahn tossed a complete game shutout as the Milwaukee Braves defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates by the score of 2 to 0 at Forbes Field. Spahn(10-5) looked very much in control throughout the night. He didn't give up much, just 7 hits and 3 walks in 9 innings. Neither team managed to score after the 3rd inning. The loss was charged to Vern Law(3-8). He allowed 6 hits and 3 walks in 9 innings. ST. LOUIS AT NEW YORK Cardinals....... 2 0 2 2 0 0 1 0 0 - 7 11 1 Giants.......... 2 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 - 4 7 2 Win:Jones(8-4) Loss:Gomez(10-10) Homeruns- A.Dark(3rd), S.Musial(15th), G.Harris-2(10th), D.Rhodes(9th) Sam Jones was able to finish what he started and was credited with a complete game as the St. Louis Cardinals outscored the reeling New York Giants 7 to 4. Stan Musial led the offense for St. Louis. He blasted a solo shot (his 15th of the season) in the 1st inning, doubled which plated a run in the 3rd inning and doubled which scored a run in the 4th inning. St. Louis finished with 11 hits in the victory. The win was credited to Jones(8-4) who went the whole way allowing 4 runs. The losing pitcher was Ruben Gomez(10-10). He was hit hard and gave up 11 hits and 2 walks in 7 innings. CINCINNATI AT BROOKLYN Redlegs......... 0 0 0 0 0 5 2 1 0 - 8 12 1 Dodgers......... 3 0 0 0 0 0 0 1 0 - 4 11 1 Win:Klippstein(10-2) Loss:Newcombe(10-4) Save:Freeman(7th) Homeruns- G.Crowe-2(28th), D.Snider(19th) First baseman George Crowe ripped 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI at Ebbets Field where the Cincinnati Redlegs beat the Brooklyn Dodgers 8 to 4. Crowe was in a groove all evening. The Brooklyn fans hated to see him approaching the batter's box. He doubled in the 2nd inning, lofted a three-run bomb in the 6th inning and blasted a two-run home run (his 28th of the season) in the 7th inning. Cincinnati had 12 hits for the night. The win went to Johnny Klippstein(10-2) who allowed 3 runs in 5 innings. Klippstein got relief help from Hersh Freeman who gained credit for his 7th save. Don Newcombe(10-4) was the loser. He surrendered 5 runs and 7 hits in 5 and 2/3 innings. 'I had good swings tonight,' Crowe said, 'Everything felt right'.
