Mays goes 3-for-5 as Ambassadors Squeeze Past Cleveland
In a high-scoring game between Pittsburgh and Cleveland, center fielder Willie Mays was a difference-maker. The 23-year-old helped Pittsburgh grab the 10-9 win. He went 3 for 5 with a home run and a double. He scored 3 times and drove in 4. Pittsburgh reliever Harry McIntire got the win, raising his record to 2-0. Bob Muncrief was tagged with the loss. The loss drops the Cleveland record to a disappointing 4-9.

Mays came through for Pittsburgh with a run-scoring double in the top of the second. He hit a 1-0 curveball to right field, staking his team to a 1-0 lead.

"We swung the bats good throughout the lineup," said Pittsburgh skipper Paul Patricola.
