Late Yankee surge helps secure win

The Giants appeared to be the better team on this day when they threatened in the first five innings, scoring one. It was not until the 7th when the Bombers put up two, a two run home run by Bill Skowron. Then put the game away in the 9th with a two run triple by Tony Kubek followed by a two run home run by Elston Howard. Luis Arroyo would take over for Bud Daley in the 7th and was credited with the win. Giant pitcher, Juan Marichal, was chased out in the 8th and was credited with the loss.
