Third baseman Sid Gordon smacked 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI as the New York
Giants defeated the Chicago Cubs in 12 innings 12 to 7 at Wrigley Field.
The score was tied at 6 after nine. New York won the game in the 12th inning.
The highlight belonged to Don Mueller who deflated the crowd as he doubled
plating all three baserunners. New York bats were hot in the 12th inning
with 6 runs on 4 hits. It was roller coaster of a game as the lead change
hands 5 times.
Windy McCall(5-4) got the win allowing no runs in 2 innings. Warren
Hacker(6-8) was the loser in relief. Lou Durocher was just happy to get a
win, 'We've had such a bad streak of games -- boy, it's great to get the
monkey off our back. Now maybe we can relax a little and play the kind of
baseball of which we are capable.'

WEB GEMS- Bot 2nd: Bill Tuttle robbed Gus Triandos of a Homerun!
Bot 7th: Harvey Kuenn robbed Jim Dyck of a base hit.
Harvey Kuenn had 2 base hits and Billy Hoeft whitewashed Baltimore on 2 hits
at Memorial Stadium as the Detroit Tigers beat the Baltimore Orioles by the
count of 4 to 0.
Hoeft(11-7) pitched one of his finer games as he simply was too much for the
Baltimore batters. He surrendered only 2 hits and 3 walks in 9 innings.
Detroit managed 7 in their victory.
The losing pitcher was Ray Moore(5-11). This win by Detroit continues their
recent hot streak. In their last ten games, they have a record of 8-2. For
the season, they are 48-46. Paul Richards was unhappy with his club's recent
performance. 'We can't keep losing games' he said. 'It gets to be
embarrassing after a while.'
Herb Score pitched a 2 hitter striking out 10 as the Indians down the Red Sox 6-1.
