The visiting Cardinals tighten their hold on first place by shutting out the Reds twice‚ winning 3 – 0 and 7 – 0. Flint Rhem allows 3 hits in the opener to beat Si Johnson‚ then Syl Johnson wins the nitecap over Larry Benton. The Reds are credited with a triple play in the 6th inning of game 2‚ going from LF Nick Cullop to C Lena Styles to 3B Joe Stripp to SS Leo Durocher to 2B Tony Cuccinello. Cooch’s last out is a hidden ball trick and since the ball is never returned to the pitcher‚ a triple play is recorded. It’s Cooch’s third successful hidden ball trick in two years‚ and the second in which Durocher assists. It is also Cooch’s third triple play in two years.
