Two of the top teams in the NL squared off for the first time this season at Candlestick Park in San Francisco. The LA Dodgers had Don Drysdale going for them on the mound while SF had ace Juan Marichal going for them. Neither pitcher would figure in the final decision as LA won a hard fought battle 6-5. Giant 1st baseman Willie McCovey hit 3 homeruns in the losing effort, giving him a league leading total of 13. LA scored 2 unearned runs in the top of the 9th but SF came back with a run in the bottom of the inning and had the bases loaded before Phil Regan came on to put out the fire for the Dodgers. The win was LA's 7th straight.

In a startling finish the seemingly unstoppable Los Angeles Dodgers staged a
comeback then held on to win over the San Francisco Giants by a score of 6 to
5 at Candlestick Park.
Los Angeles had the game winning rally in the 9th inning with 2 runs using 3
hits. Lou Johnson led off and he slapped a base-hit. Jim Lefebvre was a
strikeout victim, unable to help out. John Roseboro then laced a one-base
hit, and an error was also committed. John Kennedy followed next and he
reached on an error. Ron Perranoski followed, but he was set down on
strikes. Wes Parker extended the rally and singled. Despite scoring in 5
separate innings and 3 homeruns from Willie McCovey, San Francisco could not
get the win.
Perranoski(1-1) picked up the victory, allowing 1 run in 1 inning. Phil Regan
gained credit for his 2nd save. Lindy McDaniel(0-1) was the loser in relief.
He was the victim of a defensive lapse and did not allow an earned run in
the game.
Los Angeles extended their winning streak to 7 games.
