TEAM RISP- Cubs: 2 for 11  Yankees: 1 for 8

In a tight game it was the Chicago-NL Cubs 5, the New York-AL Yankees 3 at
Yankee Stadium.

Eddie Mathews provided the offensive punch.  He smashed a solo-shot out of the
park in the 1st inning, tripled in the 4th inning and tripled in the 7th
inning.  New York-AL went down quietly in the bottom of the 9th.  

The winning pitcher was Vic Raschi(1-1) who allowed 3 runs in 7 innings.
Johnny Sain recorded his 1st save.  Mel Parnell(0-1) was given the loss.

'I always am most impressed when a pitcher finds a way to win even without his
best stuff,' Ron Mead said after the game.  'Raschi did not have command of
his pitches most of the afternoon, but he proved he really knew how to
pitch!'
