Willie Mays smashed 2 homeruns and had 3 RBI at Polo Grounds as the New York

Giants beat the reeling St. Louis Cardinals by the count of 5 to 1.

 

It was a good day for New York thanks to Mays.  He cleared the fences for a

two-run home run in the 3rd inning and smashed a bases-empty 'big-fly' (his

37th of the season) in the 8th inning.  New York had just 6 hits for the

afternoon.  

 

Don Liddle(5-6) went 7 innings allowing no runs for the victory. Liddle got

relief help from Windy McCall who gained credit for his 2nd save.  The loss

was charged to Tom Poholsky(4-8).  He pitched 6 innings and surrendered just

4 hits and no walks.
