The Nationals top the Reds, 2 – 1, in 13 innings. Jayson Werth drives in Danny Espinosa with the winner. He becomes the first player to drive in the winner in a 13-inning game on Friday the 13th since 1963. In an odd note, the scorer of the winning run in the 1963 game was none other than Werth’s grandfather, Dick Schofield Sr.

1965 – Roberto Clemente clubs one to the deepest part of the park and it’s pulled down by Willie. So what else is new? No, no, not that Willie; this is that other Willie, Dodger center fielder Willie Davis. Bill Miller of the Pasadena Star-News reports: “Claude Osteen was working on a one-hitter until two were out in the 7th. The second out was Davis’ big contribution. ‘Davis made at least three outstanding catches, but that ball he pulled down in the 7th inning was the big one,’ said Walter Alston. He referred to a 400-foot drive off the bat of Roberto Clemente which sent Davis back to the wall.” Clemente takes another tack with Davis his next time up, with similar results: “Davis robbed Clemente again in the 9th with a sparkling catch. This time he took the ball off his shoetops.”

Another day, another epic Yankees-Red Sox battle. Today, the Yankees play the game under protest, claiming the Sox did not properly signal an injury before removing pitcher Josh Beckett trailing 5 – 0 in the 5th inning, thus giving reliever Manny Delcarmen more time to warm up than warranted. For the second night in a row, the Sox come back from a five-run hole, taking a 7 – 5 lead in the 9th thanks to an error by RF Marcus Thames on Marco Scutaro’s fly ball. Jonathan Papelbon, who blew a save the previous night, allows a run in the bottom of the 9th, but strikes out Randy Winn with runners on second and third to end the game. The contest starts almost an hour late because of rain, is played in a constant drizzle, and lasts a marathon 4 hours and 9 minutes, making it the longest nine-inning game played so far this season.
