Brilliant pitching by Vida Blue carried the Giants to a 5-0 triumph over the Pirates. The ace southpaw permitted only four hits while striking out nine. The Giants scored twice in the second inning on a double by Mike Ivie, single by Milt May, infield out by Rennie Stennett and double by Johnnie LeMaster. Jack Clark clouted a homer in the sixth and singled home another run in the eighth. [The Sporting News]
