Dodgers edge Cubs as Neal and Roseboro power win
In Chicago, Dodgers hitters Charlie Neal and John Roseboro hit two run homers to back Don Craig in a 6-2 victory over the Cubs. Craig pitched six strong innings, earning his 11th win and dropping the Cubs to six hits allowed. Banks sat out with calf contusions, Averill moved to second, and Banks later appeared as a pinch hitter to extend his consecutive game streak. The win sets up a possible World Series opener against the White Sox if the playoff ends in Milwaukee or Chicago.
