Bunning's All-Star bid rises with two-hit win over Mets
Phillies ace Jim Bunning improved to 9-4 with a two-hit 1-0 victory over the New York Mets, boosting his chances for an eighth All-Star berth as he duelled Bob Friend. The win came as other NL results featured San Francisco over St Louis 7-1, Cincinnati 3-1 over Los Angeles, Atlanta 4-2 over Chicago, and Pittsburgh 4-3 over Houston. Bunning has held the Mets 11 times in 18 career decisions and needs three more innings to surpass Lefty Gomez's 18 All-Star innings. He also could become the NL's ninth or eighth All-Star appearance if selected. Willie Mays added San Francisco's offense with an 18th homer as the Giants beat the Reds and the Mets’ defense featured a late double steal attempt.
