1966 NL Game: SF at Pit.

May 10, 1966

The San Francisco Giants came into Pittsburgh today for the start of a 3 game series against the red-hot 1st place Pirates, hoping to put an end to Pittsburgh's 10 game winning streak. But it was not to be as the Pirates built a 10-4 lead, then held on against a furious 4 run 9th inning Giant rally to win their 11th game in a row by the score of 10-8. Pittsburgh's record now stands at 18-5.

WEB GEMS- Bot 7th: Dick Schofield robbed Donn Clendenon of a base hit.
 
In a tight game it was the streaking Pittsburgh Pirates 10, the San Francisco
Giants 8 at Forbes Field.
 
San Francisco fell behind quickly as the Pittsburgh offense came through in
the first inning scoring 3 runs on 2 hits.  After two outs Roberto Clemente
was the sparkplug when he doubled.  Willie Stargell followed and he was
walked intentionally.  Jim Pagliaroni then rifled a three-run blast.  San
Francisco made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the
needed runs across.  
 
Steve Blass(1-0) got the win allowing 4 runs in 5 and 1/3 innings. Blass got
relief help from Bob Purkey who gained credit for his 1st save.  Bobby
Bolin(3-1) absorbed the loss.  He was knocked around by Pittsburgh, allowing
6 hits and 3 walks in 2 innings.  
 
Pittsburgh added another win to their mounting 11 game winning streak.
