Musial Drives In Three As Cards Narrow Giants Lead
Stan Musial drove in three runs to pace the St. Louis Cardinals past the San Francisco Giants 7 to 4, reducing the Giants’ margin over the second place Redbirds to one game. Ron Taylor earned his third win as he settled after a rough start, striking out seven in seven plus innings. Musial’s RBI singles in the first, second and fourth highlighted a 5-0 Cardinals surge, with McCarver, Flood and Groat also driving in runs. The Giants battled back with two in the third and four singles plus a sac fly, but fell short as Altman and Alou provided late offense for St. Louis.
