Reds and Cardinals battle to 8 8 tie in rare 14 inning thriller
An incident filled game at Crosley Field ended in an 8 8 tie between the National League leaders Cincinnati Reds and St. Louis Cardinals after 14 innings as darkness halted play. Johnny Vander Meer started for Cincinnati and endured a rough fourth inning, while Johnny Mize and Joe Orengo each homered for St. Louis. Bill Werber matched a major league mark with four doubles as five Reds and four Cardinals pitchers were used. The marathon followed a flood postponement and a makeshift schedule with no umpires assigned by the league.
