Cincinnati, July 5. Pittsburgh held a 5-4 lead going into the 8th, when Early Wynn came in to relieve Bob Lemon. Wynn gave up the tying run in that inning, and the winning run in the 9th. Reds win, 6-5. Paul Erickson (5-3, 2.04) got the victory. St. Louis, July 6. The Pirates rout the Cardinals 8-0 at Sportsman's Park. Warren Spahn (11-7, 2.12) pitches his 8th complete game and 3rd shutout. Nels Potter (4-10, 2.59) takes the loss. St. Louis, July 7. Sunday double-header. Don Newcombe (9-4, 3.18) gets a 2-1 win over Howie Pollet (5-11, 4.32) in Game 1. Early Wynn pitched the ninth for his 3rd save. In Game 2, Virgil Trucks gave up a HR to Whitey Kurowski in the first inning, and suffered a wrist sprain. Early Wynn came in and pitched 6 2/3 innings, getting a 4-3 win. Woody Abernathy earned his 3rd save. Jake Wade (1-2, 3.72) took the loss. Trucks had to be put on the 15-day DL, and Wynn will take his spot in the rotation. This leaves the bullpen very thin. To fill the roster spot, the Bucs called up C Don Wheeler ( .336/1/14 in AAA). After the All-Star break, the Pirates will return to Forbes Field on Thursday the 11th.
