Moon’s late homer seals Cards worst finish in 36 years
A late surge by the St Louis Cardinals could not avert a seventh place finish as Wally Moon belted a two out three run homer to lift St Louis 8 5 over Milwaukee. The Athletics closed 43 91 with Lou Boudreau’s squad fading to sixth. Moon’s feat marked the NL final homer of the season and added to a season capped by Stan Musial’s 33rd homer and 108 RBIs as Billy Pierce limited Oakland to three hits. Attendance dropped 18 percent to 49 130.
