Games of Saturday July the 13th, 1957

Dick Rand, pictured here, played a major role in the Pirates 12 inning win over the Milwaukee Braves on Saturday. He scored the tying run in the sixth inning after tripling in two runs to make the score 5-4. Then in the top of the 9th he blocked home plate and tagged out th potential winning run (Red Schoendienst on a 1-17 chance #17). The Buccos won the game in the bottom of the 12th inning on a Frank "Ouch" Thomas rbi single. The reason Frank gets the "Ouch" and not "The Big Hurt" is that he is only hitting in the upper .230's. His actual season average is .290.
