Braves 8, Giants 2  (88-57)

The Braves won their third straight game and in the process, extended their National League lead to four games with just nine games to play.  Johnny Logan had a team high three hits and he both scored and drove in a run.  Hank Aaron and Joe Adcock each scored two runs while Del Crandall drove in a pair.  Andy Pafko was the only Brave to go yard with a solo homer in the eighth inning.  It was his seventh of the year.

Lew Burdette improved to 16-9 with a nice outing.  He gave up two runs on four hits with a walk and one strikeout in the complete game win.
