Herbel Helps Giants Fill Juan Marichal Spot in NL Action
Associated Press notes Ron Herbel moved from the bullpen to start for the San Francisco Giants after Juan Marichal's injury, delivering eight hits allowed in a 4-0 win over the Dodgers. The Houston Astros used eight pitchers in an 11-10 win over the Cubs, tying a NL record. Briles earned his seventh straight win for St Louis in a 5-1 victory over Philadelphia, while Cincinnati edged Pittsburgh 4-3. Willie McCovey drove in three in a prior 4-3 win over Cincinnati and Willie Mays added two doubles and a single in a Dodgers win. The Cubs rallied in the ninth against Houston, featuring six pitchers before Pat House closed it out. The Braves’ lineup featured multiple pitchers in a slugfest era with Shields and Eilers among the relievers. Briles yielded a run early but stayed unbeaten in 17 decisions. Tim McCarver and Phil Gagliano sparked a three-run fourth for the Cardinals as they moved toward the NL pennant.
