Phillies Make Pirates 3-1 Losers
Ben Harris pitched well enough to win, but it was not to be. The Pittsburgh Pirates, despite Harris's fine outing, dropped a 3-1 decision to the Philadelphia Phillies at Forbes Field. The Pirates, now 48-57, have lost 5 straight.

The Pirates had been locked in a 1-1 tie with the Phillies going into the top of the sixth inning. That changed quickly when the 20-year old second baseman Bruno Betzel came to the plate. Betzel hit a 2-run double on a first pitch sinker from Pittsburgh hurler Ben Harris. It was Betzel's 13th double of the year.

"We'll put this win in our pocket and go after the next one," said Betzel.
