Boston, winner of 7 straight, is the hottest team in the league at the moment; they send Warren Spahn (6-7, 3.52) to the mound to face Luis E. Tiant (8-7, 2.95). Pirates aiming to halt a 4-game losing streak.
Braves keep right on rolling as Spahn evens his record at 8-8 with a two-hit shutout. Boston has won eight in a row. Tiant’s quality start goes to waste.

You are correct, sir!
Luis E. Tiant (father of the Boston Red Sox star) was a standout pitcher for the #WorldSeries champion 1947 New York Cubans.
