1951 Baseball Tour of America - July 4, 1951 National League

Phillies @ Braves

Phillies   4
Braves     5

The Phillies tie the game at three a piece with a run in the top of the ninth. The teams match single runs in the tenth before the Braves score the game winner in the eleventh.



Phillies   5
Braves    10

The Braves scored the first four runs of the game before the Phillies answered to tie it up at 5-5, but a big four run seventh inning by the Braves was too much for the Fightins to overcome.



Giants @ Dodgers 

Giants    3 
Dodgers   4 

The Dodger bats were quite early, but they eventually manage to tie the game 3-3 before winning it in the bottom of the ninth. 



Giants    6 
Dodgers   5

Giants scored the go ahead run in the ninth. The Dodgers put a couple of men on in the bottom of the inning, but they are left stranded.



Cardinals @ Cubs

Cardinals   1
Cubs        4

The Cubs throw some great pitching at Cards.


Cardinals   3
Cubs        1 

And now the Cards throw some great pitching at the Cubs.



Reds @ Pirates


Cincinnati  7
Pittsburgh  6

Reds add an "insurance" run in the top of the ninth and it would prove to be the difference in the game after the Pirates scored a run in the bottom of the frame.


Cincinnati   5
Pittsburgh   4

Wow! The same scenario as above as Pirates fall a run short again.
