WEB GEMS- Bot 2nd: Frank Bolling robbed Johnny Lewis of a base hit.
Joe Torre rocketed 2 homeruns and had 6 RBI and Hank Fischer allowed Bobby
Bragan to rest his bullpen, tossing a complete game as the Atlanta Braves
bested the New York Mets 14 to 6 at Shea Stadium.
Torre had a great day at the plate. He cleared the fences for a two-run home
run in the 4th inning, delivered a base-hit bringing in a run in the 7th
inning and smacked a three-run homer in the 8th inning. Atlanta finished
with 13 hits in the victory.
Fischer(1-0) was the winner allowing 6 runs for the game. Bill Hepler(0-1) was
the loser in relief. He was not very effective, surrendering 6 runs in 2 and
1/3 innings.
'I was really seeing the ball today,' Torre said 'I wish it was always this
easy.'
