Johnny Antonelli threw a 2 hitter as the blistering-hot Kansas City Athletics
defeated the ice-cold Washington Nationals by a score of 4 to 1 at Municipal
Stadium.

Kansas City promptly took the lead in their half of the first with 3 runs
using 4 hits.  After an out was recorded, Johnny Logan got things rolling
when he lined a single.  Mickey Mantle stepped up to the plate and he
doubled.  Ken Boyer then belted a three-run homer.  That early run support
was enough for Antonelli(13-9) and Kansas City.  Kansas City totaled 7 hits
on the afternoon.  

Joe Nuxhall(3-6) suffered the loss.  He allowed 7 hits and 2 walks in 8
innings.
