Schmidt Nearly Delivers No-Hitter as Braves Win 4-0

St. Louis pitcher Willard Schmidt lost a no hitter when Johnny Logan lined a seventh inning single for Milwaukee. Schmidt settled for a 2- hit shutout despite eight strikeouts and three walks as Eddie Mathews helped end the game with a double play. Logan’s single spoiled the bid, Schmidt said it was a solid hit and preferred over Bruton’s bunt. He described his five curveballs and one changeup, noting the changeup helped retire Mathews on strikes to end the game.
