Philadelphia Phillies starter Al Benton turned in an exceptional performance against the New York Giants at Shibe Park, resulting in a Philadelphia win, 3-2. Philadelphia has won 9 straight, while New York has lost 5 in a row.

Wally Judnich was the walk-off hero for Philadelphia. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth inning, the Phillies center fielder hit a dramatic run-scoring single to send the teams home.

Benton called the win a test of his team's "mettle."
