Richie Ashburn hits his first major league homer‚ a leadoff inside-the-park home run‚ off Thornton Lee’s third pitch. It runs Ashburn’s hitting streak to 18 games but it’s the Phils’ only run‚ as the Giants win‚ 7 – 1. Bill Rigney leads off the 1st‚ 3rd‚ and 5th innings with hits‚ while Sid Gordon adds a three-run homer in the 5th. Lee is a complete-game winner over another ex-American League hurler‚ Walt Dubiel.
