Three unearned NYG runs and 5 walks off PHI in the seventh inning gave Joe Black more than enough to work with. Phillies’ lead down to 1 game in National.
I remember seeing an interview with Mays where he talked about what it was like for the Giants to play the Dodgers in the early '60s. It always seemed to be Drysdale and Koufax. “Don’t you guys have anyone else?”
