Dodgers survive a rollercoaster 9th inning in win

What a thrilling game today in front of 26,432 at Ebbets Field, as fans saw their Dodgers hold on to their lead despite pressure in the 8th and 9th innings.  The Phillies entered the 8th trailing 6 to 1.  They scored 2 in the eighth and 2 in the 9th, but ended up losing the game 6-5 to Brooklyn.  Dodgers starter Dutch Leonard was injured in the game and pitched just 2 innings.  Therefore, the Dodgers had to rely on their shaky bullpen to get the victory.

Buzz Boyle went 4-for-5 with a triple and 3 singles; Tony Cuccinello and Joe Stripp had 2-hit games for Brooklyn.  Let's explore those exciting 8th and 9th innings for Philadelphia.

Andy High led off the 8th with a walk.  Then, Ethan Allen singled to put runners at 1st and 2nd.  Johnny Moore then walked to load the bases with 0 outs.  Kiddo Davis struck out.  Jimmie Wilson then hit a single, scoring 1.  Bucky Walters would add a sacrifice fly to score a run.  Harvey Hendrick struck out.  Then in the wild 9th, pinch hitter Al Todd led off the inning with a single.  Lou Chiozza grounded into a force out.  Andy High then popped out.  With 2 outs, Ethan Allen hit a double.  Then, Johnny Moore walked to load the bases.  Kiddo Davis walked, scoring a run.  Jimmie Wilson walked, scoring a run.  But the game ended on a ground out from Bucky Walters.

"Boy, that game had my blood pressure up," Manager Williams said.  "I didn't like it one bit!"
