Callison’s Bat Boosts Phils In Split With Astros
Phillies outfielder Johnny Callison powered a 3-2 opening win by driving in the tying and winning runs with a triple and later doubled in two more runs to spark a 7-1 nightcap victory. He had lifted his average from .185 to .287 in six weeks as Philadelphia, aiming to climb from sixth in the league, relied on his bat to steady the lineup. Jim Bunning worked six innings in the opener before Gary Wagner finished. Belinsky dominated in another game, while Koufax fanned 12 as the Dodgers beat the Mets.
