Homeruns- W.Moon(6th), F.Robinson(13th), G.Crowe(13th)

Frank Robinson and George Crowe hit their league leading 13th homeruns of the sea-

son and drove in two runs apiece at Crosely Field where the Redlegs beat the
St. Louis Cardinals by the score of 5 to 4 and climb into 2nd place tie with Phillies.

Cincinnati jumped on top of St. Louis in the 5th inning when they tallied 2
runs on 1 hit. The critical plate appearance was by George Crowe who made
the crowd come alive when he popped a two-run clout over the fence (his 13th
of the season). Cincinnati managed 7 in their victory.

The win went to Don Gross(4-2) who allowed 4 runs in 7 and 1/3 innings. Tom
Acker earned the save, his 2nd. Lindy McDaniel(1-3) was the losing pitcher.

'I had a little blister on my index finger before the game, but I thought it
was nothing.' Gross said. 'I was lucky I got a win because I couldn't put
the ball where I wanted it.'
