The 1962 San Francisco Giants put an exclamation point on the deciding Game 5 of their series with the 1963 Los Angeles Dodgers, hitting 5 home runs and winning 10-2 to advance in the Best of the 1960s Tournament. LA’s starter, Don Drysdale, never looked comfortable on the mound. He allowed a couple of hits in the 1st, but escaped without allowing a run. He allowed back-to-back 2-out singles in the 2nd to give the Giants a 1-0 lead. Willie McCovey connected with his 4th home run of the series in the next inning to make it 2-0. Tom Haller hit a leadoff homer in the 4th, and Kuenn added an RBI single later to run the lead to 4-0. But it was in the 5th that the Giants broke out. Orlando Cepeda led off the inning with a solo shot, and two batters later, Jim Davenport added another. Haller drew a walk, and José Pagán followed with a long home run to give the Giants an 8-0 lead. All told, Drysdale gave up 8 runs on 15 hits, including 5 home runs. Meanwhile, Billy O’Dell allowed just 2 runs on 8 hits to pick up the win. Pagán finished 3 for 4, and has the highest batting average on the team at .389. The Giants will face the 1960 Pittsburgh Pirates next, while LA will face the top-seeded 1968 Cardinals in the Elimination Bracket.
