Redlegs Score 8-2 Triumph Over Pirates
New York.
Southpaw Joe Nuxhall scored his first victory in almost a month today when he checked the Pittsburgh Pirates on seven hits and pitched the Cincinnati Redlegs to an 8-2 triumph with the aid of Don Hoak's two-run homer. Nuxhall, who scored his only other victory of the season on May 8, blanked the Pirates until the ninth when they scored both their runs on Frank Thomas' two-run double. The victory gave Nuxhall a life-time record of 20-8 against the Pirates. He helped himself by driving in two runs with three hits.
