Pirates Net 6-4 Win Over Giants
The Pittsburgh Pirates topped the San Francisco Giants by the score of 6-4, with the biggest share of the credit going to first baseman Harmon Killebrew. Killebrew hit 2 home runs, while adding 4 RBI and scoring twice for the Pirates on the day. The win puts Pittsburgh at 77-74 this season.

Pittsburgh grabbed the momentum in the top of the fifth, when Killebrew, who finished 5th in the AL in OPS with .870 in 1959, hit a 3-run home run. His 28th home run of the season put the Pirates out in front, 4-1.

"We take it day by day here," said Killebrew, "and today was a good one for us."
