Mets Pull Ahead As Clendenon Leads Late Rally
A juvenile delinquency expert is overwhelmed by two elderly one armed bandits as the Mets win two from the Phillies to reclaim first in the NL. Donn Clendenon collects three hits in four at bats while his eight game hitting streak grows to 16 hits in 31 trips. Casey Stengel fields Warren Spahn and Frank Lary to stop the Mets but their efforts falter as Spahn yields 10 early hits and Lary a one hitter into eight innings. The Pirates fall behind the Mets despite a fourth straight win, and St. Louis, Cincinnati, and Milwaukee win to tighten the NL chase.
