The Cincinnati Reds defeated the Chicago Cubs, 4-1, in NL action at Crosley Field. Cincinnati pitcher Bob Muncrief had a standout performance. In 9 innings, Muncrief surrendered 7 hits, while striking out 4 and walking 1. He allowed 1 run. Cincinnati goes to 2-1.

Elmer Valo drove in one run for Cincinnati. The 25-year old right fielder had a key at-bat in the bottom of the fourth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 1-1 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Hank Wyse. It was his 2nd RBI of the season.

"Good to get a win," said Valo, "but it's a long season."
