Philadelphia Pockets 8-2 Win Over Pittsburgh
The umbrellas came out during the Philadelphia-Pittsburgh contest at Forbes Field.

Philadelphia shortstop Pee Wee Reese was a significant contributor in his team's 8-2 triumph over the Pittsburgh Pirates. He was 3-5 with 3 singles and a walk, while scoring 2 runs for the Phillies. The loss lowers the Pittsburgh record to 12-4.

Philadelphia relied on the bat of Del Ennis to get the win. The left fielder ripped a run-scoring triple in the top of the first inning to put the Phillies ahead, 1-0. For the game, Ennis had 1 double and 1 triple in 5 at-bats.

"Winning never gets dull," said Ennis.
