Washington never recovered after Pittsburgh took the lead in the bottom of the 7th inning plating one baserunner. Washington made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across. Early Wynn(11-11) allowed 6 runs in 7 innings, and picked up the victory. Jim Konstanty recorded his 25th save. Johnny Podres(4-8) suffered the loss. 'We didn't get the key hits when we needed them' Gordy Renaud said. 'We did what we could, we just didn't pull out the win. What can you say?'
