Braves Take Down Dodgers, 9-7
It took 15 innings, but the Boston Braves were able to beat the Brooklyn Dodgers, 9-7, at Ebbets Field. Johnny Hopp provided some offensive muscle for Boston. He went 4 for 7 with a double, 3 singles, and a walk, while scoring 3. Brooklyn, with the loss, is 11-13.

Boston used the timely hitting of Joe DiMaggio to seize the win. The center fielder stroked a 2-run single in the top of the 15th inning to put the Braves on top, 9-7. It was his only hit in 6 at-bats, but it was a game-changer.

"We got the victory," said DiMaggio. "That's all that matters at the end of the day."
