In a game for the baseball purist, Pedro Ramos(2-6) and Dick Donovan(14-5)

squared off in a tense pitching duel, Washington Nationals finally emerged

victorious over Chicago White Sox, 2 to 1.

 

Washington jumped on top of Chicago in the top of the 3rd inning scoring one

runner on 2 hits.  Jose Valdivielso smacked a single.  Ramos came next and he

laid down a sacrifice bunt.  After another out, Pete Runnels stepped up to

the plate and he laced a base-knock scoring the run.  The Chicago offense

proved no trouble in the bottom of the 9th.  

 

Ramos got help from Chuck Stobbs who earned his 3rd save.  Chuck Dressen 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.'
