Smith made sure the Brooklyn fans enjoyed themselves. He lofted a three-run bomb in the 1st inning, tripled in the 3rd inning, lined a one-base hit in the 4th inning, laced a base-knock in the 5th inning and banged out a single in the 7th inning. Brooklyn provided plenty of action in the 1st inning with 4 runs on 4 hits and the 8th inning which saw them score 5 runs on 4 hits. The Brooklyn offense man-handled the Kansas City pitching staff as they scored in 7 of the 9 innings. The victory went to Curt Simmons(9-5) who went 7 and 2/3 innings, allowing 9 runs. Frank Lary(8-8) was hit with the loss. He was knocked around by Brooklyn, allowing 11 hits and 5 walks in 4 innings.
