Ernie Banks blasted a homerun and had 3 RBI as the Chicago Cubs topped the New
York Giants by a score of 6 to 3 at Polo Grounds.
 
Banks had a big day with his bat.  He delivered a single in the 2nd inning,
rifled a three-run blast (his 12th of the season) in the 3rd inning and
doubled in the 8th inning.  New York had a chance in the 9th but they came up
short.  
 
Jim Davis(2-0) got the win allowing 3 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings. John Andre
earned his 1st save.  Sal Maglie(3-2) ended up with the loss.  He was touched
for 3 homeruns in his 2 and 2/3 innings of work.  
 
Lou Durocher was subdued after the ballgame, 'That one really hurts.  If our
guys had simply played more fundamentally sound, we could have won that one.
That is what really ticks me off!'
