39,595 fans watched an exciting game at County Stadium. The New York Giants
topped the Milwaukee Braves by the slimmest of margins, 3 to 2.
Milwaukee was unable to claim the lead after New York went ahead in the top of
the 3rd inning scoring a single run utilizing 2 base hits. Milwaukee made it
exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across.
Johnny Antonelli(13-13) allowed 2 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings, and picked up the
victory. Hoyt Wilhelm earned the save, his 1st. Bob Buhl(16-8) was tagged
with the loss.
'I just wanted to give my team a chance to win.' said Antonelli, 'I got burned
on a couple of pitches. But we won the game, and that's all that matters.'
