Right fielder Wally Moon had 3 base hits and 2 RBI and Sandy Koufax dominated
striking out 13 Milwaukee batters as the Los Angeles Dodgers defeated the
Milwaukee Braves 9 to 3 at Memorial Coliseum.
Koufax(17-10) gave Los Angeles a solid outing. He went 7 innings allowing 9
hits and 4 walks. Los Angeles totaled 11 on the night. Warren Spahn(16-10)
was given the loss. He served up 3 homeruns in his 6 and 1/3 innings.
Koufax was pleased with his performance. He noted, 'I had good zip on my
pitches. Just as important, my location was right on. The fans really got
into the game too - that always helps me. Now, if I can only do that again
in my next outing.'
