Chicago scored single rpps in the sixth and eighth innings. The victory went to Harvey Haddix (5-3), who entered the game in the eighth in relief of starter Milt Panpas.

third inning double that scored Deron Johnson and Steve Boros. Maloney then crossed the plate with wh a t proved to be the winning run on Chico Ruiz bunt single as the Reds gained sole possession of second place in the National League. McCool, a 20-year-old lefty from Lawrenceburg, Ind., toiled for 6' 2-3 innings and allowed just one hit and fanned nine while winning his fourth against only two defeats. McCool Lowers ERA The 6-feet-2 southpaw, who was 5-13 for Tampa in the Florida State League last year, lowered his earned run average to 2.47. bettered on his club only by Jim O’Toole and reliever Bill Henry. However, the Reds remained 7Mi games off the lead as Philadelphia downed Pittsburgh 2-0. In other National League games, St. Louis nipped San Francisco 6-5, New York shutout Chicago 7-0, and Houston edged Milwaukee 3-2. Balk Is Factor League-leading Philadelphia took advantage of a second inning balk by Pirate jstarter Bob Veale to maintain their safe margin. Rookie Alex Johnson singled, was waved to second on Veale’s balk and later scored on Tony Taylor’s single. Their second run came in the eighth when Ruben Amaro went to second base on a sacrifice after singling and came home on Johnny Callison’s sliced single to left. Lefty Chris Short whiffed 10 and picked up his 13th triumph of the season while spacing seven hits. San Francisco it on the chin for the sixth straight time when the Cardinals rallied for three runs in the ninth inning. The New York Mets won their fifth consecutive game, equalling a team career high, by scoring all their runs in the first three innings, off starter Lew Burdette and reliever Fred Burdette, no relation.
