Billy Bruton had 4 hits and 3 RBI and Bob Grim pitched 9 strong innings as the
Brooklyn Dodgers defeated the Washington Nationals by a score of 8 to 0 at
Griffith Stadium.
Grim(4-5) was indeed brilliant as he hand-cuffed the Washington offense. He
allowed just 4 hits and 1 walk in 9 innings lowering his ERA to 3.18.
Brooklyn finished with 17 hits in the victory.
Warren Spahn(5-9) was tagged with the loss. He allowed a few too many
baserunners giving up 12 hits and 4 walks in 7 innings.
'He was moving it around and spotting it very well.' Gordy Renaud said. Grim
pitched a great game. He deserves all the credit.'
