Johnny Klippstein(2-0) pitched a fine game. He allowed 9 hits and 3 walks in 8 and 2/3 innings and served up 2 'big flies' reducing his ERA from 2.84 to 2.53. Milwaukee had a chance to come back in the 9th but they came up short. Raul Sanchez recorded the save, his 2nd. Warren Spahn(2-1) absorbed the loss. He gave up just 3 runs and 4 hits in 8 innings. 'I was a little good, a little bad and a little ugly.' said Klippstein, 'I was just giving us a chance to win.' NEW YORK AT PHILADELPHIA Giants.......... 0 0 0 0 2 0 0 1 0 - 3 5 0 Phillies........ 5 0 0 0 0 1 0 0 - 6 10 0 Win:Cardwell(1-0) Loss:Antonelli(2-1) Save:Farrell(1st) Homeruns- A.Rodgers(2nd), S.Lopata(2nd) Stan Lopata left the yard and had 3 RBI at Connie Mack Stadium as the Philadelphia Phillies beat the New York Giants by the count of 6 to 3. Philadelphia started with a bang, jumping out to an early lead in their half of the first as they scored 5 runs on 5 base hits. That early scoring held up. Philadelphia ended up with 10 hits for the game while New York had 5. The victory went to Don Cardwell(1-0) who went 7 and 1/3 innings, allowing 3 runs. Cardwell got help from Turk Farrell who was credited with his 1st save. Johnny Antonelli(2-1) ended up with the loss. BROOKLYN AT PITTSBURGH Dodgers......... 2 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 - 4 9 0 Pirates......... 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 3 2 - 5 12 1 Win:Kuzava(1-0) Loss:Labine(1-2) Homeruns- D.Snider(4th), C.Furillo(4th) It was a great finish at Forbes Field as the Pittsburgh Pirates pulled off a dramatic comeback beating the Brooklyn Dodgers by the count of 5 to 4. Pittsburgh won the game with a rally in the bottom of the 9th inning with 2 runs using 3 hits. Hank Foiles opened up the inning nicely when he smacked a single. After an out was recorded, Dale Long stepped up to the plate and he drew a walk. Roberto Clemente then stroked a one-base hit to load the bases. Lee Walls got his turn next, but he was a strikeout victim. Dick Groat stepped into the box and doubled giving Pittsburgh the win much to the delight of the home town crowd. Pittsburgh had 12 hits overall, while Brooklyn had 9. Bob Kuzava(1-0) picked up the victory, allowing no runs in 1 inning. Clem Labine(1-2) took the loss in relief. 'What a win!', Kuzava said. 'These are the kind of games that stand out in your mind at the end of a season.'
