Giants Tip Braves 6-5
Far League Lead-Yankees
Split With White Sox
Uniltd Pre Iij,tertial
A city buifc for an etrava
O f ant destiny, tall tale come
true ...
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.
