Warren Spahn delivered 9 solid innings as the Milwaukee Braves defeated the

St. Louis Cardinals by a score of 3 to 2 at Sportsmans Park.

 

Milwaukee tallied 2 runs in the top of the 2nd inning.  Johnny Logan led off

and keyed the rally when he slapped a base-hit.  George Crowe followed and he

cracked a two-run shot (his 7th of the season).  St. Louis made it exciting

in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across.

 

Spahn(16-7) picked up the complete game victory, allowing 2 runs. Larry

Jackson(8-14) was given the loss.  'I thought it was my best performance in a

long time,' said Spahn. 'I had good command early in the game. I had my

control and composure and everything went well.'
