Gene Brabender(2-1) finally bested his New York (AL) opposite, Fritz Peterson(5-4), by the score of 2 to 1. Brabender pitched a solid game. He was stingy on the mound, allowing just 3 hits and 5 walks in 8 and 2/3 innings lowering his ERA from 4.50 to 3.88. New York (AL) had a chance in the 9th but they came up short. Brabender got help from Jim Bouton who earned his 6th save. Peterson absorbed the loss. He allowed just 5 hits and 1 walk in 8 innings. Ralph Houk was in a contemplative mood after the tough loss, 'It is really hard to lose this kind of a game. It may seem weird to some, but it is easier to take the occasional blow-out loss. It is the ones that just barely get away that hurt so much - like this one!'
