Chuck Hiller cracked a homer and had 2 RBI as the impressive San Francisco

Giants beat the Pittsburgh Pirates by a score of 5 to 3.

 

San Francisco had 4 runs cross the plate in the 6th inning with the help of 4

hits.  The key at-bat was by Tom Haller who made the crowd happy when he

cleared the fences for a two-run home run (his 17th of the season).

Pittsburgh made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the

needed runs across.  

 

Jim Duffalo(2-4) got the win allowing 1 run in 2 and 1/3 innings. Bob

Friend(11-8) was hit with the loss.  He served up 3 homeruns in his 6

innings.  

 

'You have to give Pittsburgh credit, they fought us tough to the end' San

Francisco's manager said.  'It could have gone either way, but I'm glad we

pulled out the victory.'
