Dick Stuart gave the Pittsburgh Pirates an early lead, but the San Francisco Giants scored 6 runs on 17 hits against Vinegar Bend Mizell, holding off a late rally to put them one win away from the World Series. Jack Sanford had allowed just one run on 5 hits entering the 8th inning. Sanford walked Dick Groat, and Bob Skinner singled before Stuart slugged his 15th home run of the Tournament, a 3-run blast that made the score 6-4. Don Hoak made things interesting when he tripled to lead off the 9th against Stu Miller, but Miller retired the next three hitters, picking up his 5th save in the 6-5 win. Despite recording 17 hits, it was the 1st game of the Tournament in which the Giants didn’t hit a home run. Only 3 of the 17 hits were for extra bases. Down 3-1 in the series, the Pirates have no margin for error as they head into their last game at home tomorrow.
