Those words were used to describe San Francisco in its early Gofo" Rush days but they never applied more than today with an amazing Giant team trying to write the tall est tale of all a National league pennant for San Fran O Cisco in its first season in the major leagues! It would have sounded im- possible a few months ago but who's going to say it is q nowOafter the Giants staged a winning ninth-inning rally for the 14th time this year to beat the Milwaukee Braves, 6-5, Sunday? Evn the 1951 Giants, ho came from 13V games behind on Aug. 11 to win, or the 1954 Giants, who wept the Indians four straight in the World Series, couldn't top the heroicf the current club. A crowd of 22,83 at San Francisco saw the Braves take a 4-0 'first-inning lead Sunday and lead, 4-2, as late as the eighth inning. Then came the sensational late-inning heroics. A homer by Bookie Orlando Cepeda and a two-run pinch single by Bob Speake put the Giants ahead, 5-4. Back came the Braves in the top of the ninth to tie the score on Red Schoendienst's run-scoring single. In First Placa And then the final act: A walk to Willie Mays, a sacri fice, an intentional walk to Cepeda and a game-winning single by Rookie Felipe Alou. Chalk up another victory for Bill Rigney's "cliff-hangers." And put those Giants in first place, a half-game ahead of the Braves. Mike McCormick, 19-year, old bonus lefty, gained credit for his sixth win while Ernie Johnson suffered his first de feat for the Braves. It was a great day all around for underdogs in the NX. as all three of the other "contenders" lost doublehead ers in a league race so tight only seven games separate first and last place. The Pitts burgh Pirates whipped the St. Louis Cardinals, 10-8 and 8-6, the Chicago Cubs swept the Philadelphia Phillies, 3-2 and 2-1, and the last-place Los Angeles Dodgers beat the Cincinnati Redlegs, 3-0 and 3-2.
