Duke Snider connected with a 'big fly' and had 3 RBI as the St. Louis
Cardinals defeated the floundering Washington Nationals by a score of 3 to 2
at Griffith Stadium.

Russ Meyer(7-7) had a steady outing.  He allowed 6 hits and 2 walks in 6 and
1/3 innings and surrendered 2 homeruns.  Washington tried unsuccessfully to
come back in the 9th.  

Meyer got help from Tom Ferrick who earned his 12th save.  Don Newcombe(6-9)
was the losing pitcher.  Dan Polis was beaming after the game, 'Not only were
we making good contact, but a lot of balls we hit seemed to have 'eyes'! I
just love winning these tight ones! It was just our evening - no doubt about
it!'
