GAME 2
Drysdale vs Sanford
Giants 6, Dodgers 3
The Jints dropped a 4 spot on Big D in the bottom of the first and never looked back. After giving up another run in the bottom of the 6th Brooklyn's ace was mercifully lifted. "Cha-Cha" Cepeda went 3 for 4 with 4 RBI's while hitting a monster homer. Jack Sanford (5-1, 3.48) once again benefited from great offensive support. Stu Miller picked up his 8th save with a scoreless 9th while fanning 2 of the 3 hitters he faced.
GAME 3
McCormick vs Koufax
Dodgers 3, Giants 2
With the Giants up 2-1 and time starting to run out the Dodgers managed to score 2 runs in the bottom of the 7th to take a 3-2 lead. Backup catcher Rube Walker led off with a double. After Zim grounded weakly to third pinch hitter Elmer Valo walked then went to second on Junior Gilliam's ground out to short. Charlie Neal's clutch 2 out single plated Walker and tied the game. A passed ball, charged to backup catcher John Orsino allowed Valo to score what would eventually become the winning run. Clem Labine would toe the rubber for the final 2 innings in relief of a 22 year old Sanford Koufax. Labine would be pefect over those 2 innings to pickup his 3rd save of the season. Koufax (2-0, 2.25) fanned 8 and did not walk a batter. Flatbush fans keep hoping he will solve his wildness and this game was a huge step in that direction.
