Bobby Shantz tossed a complete game and shortstop Chico Carrasquel had 5 hits and 2 RBI as the Washington Nationals defeated the Brooklyn Dodgers by a score of 8 to 3 at Ebbets Field. Carrasquel provided much of the offense. He lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in the 2nd inning, stroked a single in the 4th inning, laced a base-hit in the 6th inning, doubled plating a run in the 8th inning and lined a one-base hit in the 9th inning. Washington had 17 hits for the night. Shantz(4-4) was the winner allowing 3 runs for the game. Luis Arroyo(0-1) was the loser. He gave up 7 hits and 1 walk in 4 innings.
