Stan Musial smacked 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI at Ebbets Field as the St. Louis
Cardinals won in dramatic fashion coming back to beat the Brooklyn Dodgers by
the count of 9 to 6.
Musial was a seemingly constant irritant to the hometown fans as he provided
much of the offense for the visitors. He cracked a solo homerun in the 8th
inning and smashed a two-run homer (his 14th of the season) in the 9th
inning. St. Louis had 13 hits for the game and Brooklyn had 10.
The victory was credited to Frank Smith(1-1) who went 2 innings, allowing 2
runs. Barney Schultz earned his 2nd save. The loss was charged to Don
Newcombe(6-2). He was touched for 4 homeruns in his 8 and 1/3 innings of
work.
SS Johnny Logan had 3 hits, 2 doubles, and 2 RBI as the Braves double up on the Phillies 6-3.

Center fielder Willie Mays ripped 2 homeruns as the New York Giants topped the
Chicago Cubs in 11 innings by a score of 6 to 5 at Polo Grounds.
The game was deadlocked at 5 after nine full innings. Finally, New York
pulled the game out in the 11th inning. Mays cracked a solo homerun (his
15th of the season) resulting in a mighty exciting win for New York and the
18,527 home town fans in attendance. The game was a wild affair with the
lead changing hands 5 times.
Windy McCall(3-2) picked up the victory, allowing no runs in 2 innings. Harry
Perkowski(0-3) was the losing pitcher in relief. He surrendered 3 hits and 1
walk in 2 innings.
