The Chicago Cubs toppled the San Francisco Giants by a 6 to 2 score at Wrigley

Field.

 

Chicago jumped on top of San Francisco in the bottom of the 3rd inning when

they tallied 2 runs on 3 hits.  The big moment was provided by Lou Brock who

excited the crowd when he popped a two-run clout over the fence (his 2nd of

the season).  Chicago ended up with 10 hits for the game while San Francisco

had 6.  

 

The victory was credited to Cal Koonce(2-0) who went 8 innings, allowing 2

runs. Billy Pierce(2-1) absorbed the loss.  He surrendered 8 hits and 3 walks

in 6 innings.
