Bob Nieman's two-run dou ble off reliever Elroy Face with the bases loaded was the decisive blow, giving the Cardinals' third relief hurler, Bob Duliba, his fourth victory in six decisions. Ken Boyer and Daryl Spen cer hit homers for the Cards while Dick Stuart belted two-run homer for the Pirates The Pirates were leading 6-4, going into the last of the ninth, having broken a 4-4 tie in the seventh inning on Stuart's two-run home run But the Cards finished off with a flood of hits. Bill White led off with a single as rain began to fall but defensive substitute Bill Virdon made a brilliant, one handed running catch to rob Curt Flood of an extra base hit in deep center. White Scores Pirate southpaw reliever Bill Green, taking over for Ben Daniels, then gave up a single to Alex Grammas and another one-base hit to pinch- hitter Ellis Burton, which scored White. Righthander Elroy Face re lieved Green, only to load the bases on a single by pinch-hitter George Crowe, who was replaced on the base paths by Curt Simmons.

Willie clouted a three- run homer, got two singles, scored two runs and stole two bases. "And 1 feel good all over," said Willie later, recalling that he had only one hit in his previous 21 times at bat. "It's just like when you write a good story. You feel good all over." The Giants pounced on vet eran southpaw Warren Spahn for a run on throe singles, with Mays scoring, in the fourth. They got three more in the fifth after Spahn had struck out the first two batters.

The fan climbed up on the top of the dugout and police escorted him from the park. Higncy was tossed out during this fracas. Jones was ordered out of the dugout during the next Inning for continuous jockey ing. Lead for Keeps It was a wild game, during which the Braves used three hurlers and the Giants four.
