Pappas Keeps Reds Close in Big League Comeback
Milt Pappas pitched his third straight complete game, leading Cincinnati to a 9-2 victory over Chicago. The trade with Baltimore centered on Roberto Robinson who had led the Orioles with a 400 average. Pappas said the Reds would need time to catch up, but his win narrowed the gap to three games behind the leaders. The day also featured Philadelphia beating Houston, and St Louis topping Atlanta as Torre misplayed a key throw enabling Cepeda to score. Willie Mays’ era continued as New York handled San Francisco.
