Roberto Clemente rocketed 2 homeruns and had 6 RBI as the Pittsburgh Pirates
defeated the Philadelphia Phillies by a score of 11 to 10 at Connie Mack
Stadium.
 
Clemente was a source of great heartache for the Philadelphia faithful all
evening.  He just kept pounding out hits! He ripped a base-hit scoring a run
in the 1st inning, slapped a single in the 3rd inning, tripled in the 5th
inning, smashed a two-run homer in the 7th inning and launched a three-run
homer in the 8th inning.  Philadelphia had a chance in the 9th but they came
up short.  
 
Steve Blass(7-8) picked up the victory, allowing no runs in 2 innings. Blass
was helped out by Roy Face who recorded his 9th save.  Terry Fox(3-6) was the
loser in relief.  His ERA increased from 5.96 to 6.39 as he allowed 3 runs in
1 inning.
