Granny Hamner smacked 2 homeruns as the Philadelphia Phillies topped the
Cincinnati Reds by a score of 14 to 6 at Crosley Field.
Hamner was in a groove all day. The Cincinnati fans hated to see him
approaching the batter's box. He depressed the partisan hometown fans with a
grand slam home run in the 1st inning, smashed a solo-shot out of the park
(his 5th of the season) in the 4th inning and doubled scoring two baserunners
in the 7th inning. Cincinnati scored in 5 different innings, but their shaky
pitching kept them from victory.
Russ Meyer(6-5) picked up the victory, allowing 6 runs in 8 innings. Ewell
Blackwell(7-8) was tagged with the loss. 'I had a big day, but there's a lot
of credit to go around' Hamner said. 'We played well together as a team.'
