Friday, May 29, 1959

St. Louis 9, San Francisco 4
at San Francisco, CA

STL 000 330 300 = 9-14-0
SF   400 000 000 = 4-6-1
WP- Mizell (5-2); SV- McDaniel (5); LP- Sanford (3-5)

Vinegar Bend Mizell gave up four runs in a very rough first inning, but then didn't allow another hit until the ninth inning before tiring. Bill White and Hal Smith each had three RBI for the Cardinals, who won two out of three in the series and are now two games behind the Giants for first place. Mizell helped his own cause with two singles.

Milwaukee 3, Philadelphia 1
at Milwaukee, WI

PHI 010 000 000 = 1-6-1
MIL 003 000 00x = 3-5-0
WP- Willey (2-1); SV- McMahon (5); LP- Conley (2-3)

The Braves ended the Phillies' modest two-game winning streak behind a strong performance by starting pitcher Carl Willey, who threw eight innings of one-run baseball. Hank Aaron's three-run homer in the third inning proved to be the difference.

Los Angeles 10, Chicago 4
at Los Angeles, CA

CHI 100 100 101 = 4-7-0
LA  031 202 02x = 10-10-0
WP- McDevitt (3-2); LP- Drabowsky (2-5)

Dick Gray's three-run homer in the second inning put the Dodgers ahead to stay. Cubs starter Moe Drabowsky lasted just three-plus innings, surrendering six runs and walking five Dodgers hitters. Ron Fairly added a two-run shot in the eighth as the Dodgers won the last two games of the series. The Dodgers blasted three triples off Cubs pitching, yet only one of those scored.

Pittsburgh 6, Cincinnati 1
at Cincinnati, OH

PIT 100 104 000 = 6-12-1
CIN 010 000 000 = 1-6-1
WP- Kline (2-3); LP- Lawrence (2-4)

Roman Mejias, the Pirates rightfielder while Robert Clemente mends, had four hits, including a three-run homer that broken open a close game in the sixth inning. Ron Kline pitched seven strong innings for Pittsburgh, winners for just the third time in their past 12 games. Frank Thomas homered in the second inning for the Reds' lone score.
