Heyward goes 4-for-5 in Colts Win
The 13-5 Louisville win over Washington was due in large part to Norm Heyward. The Colts shortstop was 4-5 with a triple, a double, and 2 singles, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 3. Louisville pitcher Ray Ball earned the win, hiking his record to 5-1. Tom Ewart suffered the loss. The Colts, at 15-6, have a record worth flaunting.

Ken Duncan drew 1 walk. He scored 3 runs for Louisville. The fan favorite had a key at-bat in the top of the fifth. With one out and runners on 1st and 3rd, he broke a 5-5 tie with a run-scoring ground out off Tom Ewart. It was his 19th RBI of the season.

"Good pitching stops good hitting," said Heyward. "And vice-versa."
