Willie Mays had 2 base hits and 2 RBI and Herb Score came through with a solid
9 innings at Forbes Field as the Pittsburgh Pirates beat the Brooklyn Dodgers
by the count of 8 to 0.

Pittsburgh claimed the early lead in the first inning when they scored 3 runs
on 4 hits.  That early scoring was all that Score(14-8) needed.  Pittsburgh
finished with 12 hits in the victory.  

Luis Arroyo(0-2) was the losing pitcher.  'Score pitched a gem of a game',
Jeff Pasley recounted.  'He kept our batters off balance the entire game.'
