Kings Pitching Ravaged by Kennedy
Hal Kennedy was sizzling at the plate. In a game played at Prairie Park, the Cleveland catcher blistered the Kansas City Kings for 5 hits in 5 at-bats to pace his club to a good 8-7 victory.

"Kennedy was too tough to get out," Kings skipper Glenn Carney said in his postgame interview. "No matter what we threw him, he hit it. And he hit some good pitches, too."

Hal Kennedy hit a two-run home run off Jack Halbur in the 1st, hit a two-run home run off Jack Halbur in the 3rd, hit an RBI double in the 5th, hit a two-run home run off Del Lamb in the 7th and doubled in the 9th.

For the season, Kennedy is batting .332 with 71 hits and 12 home runs. He has scored 41 times and batted in 41.
