Nearhood Helps St. Louis Cruise to 10-2 Win
The St. Louis Cardinals dumped the Pittsburgh Pirates, 10-2, in large part due to center fielder Ken Nearhood. On the day, Nearhood hit 2 home runs, while scoring 3 runs and driving in 5 for the Cardinals. Bill Pye, the winner, improved to 13-7. He held the Pirates to 2 runs on 4 hits over 9 innings, while striking out 6 and walking 2. St. Louis is third in the National League Central Division with a record of 60-51.

With St. Louis leading 4-2 in the bottom of the third, Nearhood came up to bat against Pittsburgh pitcher Tony Laboy. Nearhood hit a slider to right-center for a 2-run home run. His 19th home run of the season put the Cardinals on top, 6-2.

"You can't sugarcoat this one," said Pittsburgh manager Bobby Crosby. "We got flat-out beat."
