At Forbes Field the Pittsburgh Pirates outscored the San Francisco Giants 5 to

2.

 

Pittsburgh jumped on top of San Francisco in the 5th inning when they scored 2

runs on 1 hit.  The big moment was provided by Dick Schofield who made the

crowd come alive when he popped a two-run clout over the fence (his 1st of

the season).  San Francisco had 8 hits in the game while Pittsburgh had 4,

but Pittsburgh had the more timely hits.  

 

The winning pitcher was Joe Gibbon(1-0) who allowed 2 runs in 8 and 2/3

innings. Roy Face gained credit for his 7th save.  Jack Sanford(1-3) was

given the loss.  He surrendered 3 hits and 2 walks in 5 innings.
