Giants Back on Pace as Maris Closes on Ruth Mark
Roger Maris moved closer to Babe Ruth’s single season home run record in August as the Yankees surged. He trailed by a handful of homers and led Mickey Mantle, with the Giants remaining near the Reds in the National League pennant race. Maris powered two blasts in a key game but New York lost 4 1 to 3 as Angel pitchers backed by Lee Thomas, Earl Averill, and Leon Wagner homered. Willie Mays and Willie McCovey provided offense for San Francisco, while Mike McCormick and Sam Jones earned wins in a split doubleheader.
