(see) Text includes: "Tony Cuccinello topped off the slugging with a homer in the eighth while young Brother Al duplicated the feat for the Giants in the ninth" (see) This was the game in which two brothers, Tony and Al Cuccinello, hit home runs making it the first time in Major League history that brothers hit HRs on opposing teams in the same game.
Other news of the day. Complete with 14 pages, light toning and a little wear at the margins, generally good.
