Chicago-NL scored 4 runs in the decisive bottom of the 2nd inning with the help of 4 hits. That early run support was all that Leo Kiely(3-2) required. Neither team managed to score after the 3rd inning. Kiely got relief help from Howie Judson who gained credit for his 4th save. Don Newcombe(8-15) took the loss. He surrendered 6 runs and 9 hits in 8 innings.
