Davis Delivers in Ninth for Dodgers Streak Keeps Rolling
Dodgers outfielder Willie Davis snapped a four at bat futility streak with a ninth inning double off Jack DiLauro to score Maury Wills and beat the Mets 5-4. The hit preserved Davis long hitting streak, left the Dodgers one game back in the NL West, and followed earlier late drama including Tommie Agee and Donn Clendenon homers for New York. Pete Mikkelsen earned the win. DiLauro took the loss as Montreal, Chicago, and Philadelphia won in other NL action.
