Chicago-NL kept the pressure on throughout the contest as they scored in 6 different innings. Sal Maglie(14-1) went 6 innings allowing 2 runs for the victory. Maglie got relief help from Hersh Freeman who gained credit for his 2nd save. The loss was charged to Ned Garver(12-11). He surrended 4 homeruns in his 7 and 2/3 innings.
