The bid for a no-hitter was broken up when Ed Herrmann singled with no outs in the 6th inning. 'My catcher called a very good game. I have to give credit to him.' Sutton (19-8) was overpowering, fanning 11 while walking 1, throwing 117 pitches. San Diego's first baseman Earl C. Williams collected 2 hits in 4 trips to the plate, with 2 RBI.

I guess I was lucky.' Figueroa (11-7) fanned 4 and walked 1, throwing 104 pitches. Minnesota's first baseman Ron Stone collected 2 hits in 4 trips to the plate, and driving in 2 runs.
