Wes Fisher cooled off the red hot San Francisco Giants, winners of seven of their last ten, with a superbly pitched three hit complete game shutout.
Fisher, now 6-1 with a 2.60 ERA this season notched his second complete game shutout of the season recording seven strikeouts and not walking a batter.
The seven punch outs gave Fisher 49 this season in 69.1 innings pitched.
Toby LaRussa, the Giants starting pitcher matched zeros with Fisher for six innings before coming unglued in the seventh when the A's scored all five of their runs in the game.
LaRussa's undoing was his walking four batters in the inning (seven in 6.2 innings). LaRussa walked Charlie Scheer to start the inning and then issued successive free passes to pinch hitters Gary McCollough and Roy Jones to load the bases.
LaRussa then walked the A's pitcher Wes Fisher, who was obviously taking, on four straight bad ones out of the zone to force in the games initial run.
Pinch hitter Adam Witte did swing and he lined out to shortstop Johnny Rios for the first out.
That was all for LaRussa (LP 2-5). In came rookie Joey Crockett.
Bob Tedrow deposited a high fastball on a 2-1 count from Crockett deep into the left field bleachers for a grand slam homerun, his 8th homer of the season, and Philadelphia now now led 5-0.
That would be the final score.
Philadelphia improved to 19-21 (.475) four behind.
San Francisco is now 22-18 just one behind Chicago, now in a first place tie with Montreal who lost to Arizona 4-3.
======================================
Chicago 5 Pittsburgh 1
Dick Wynne (4-3) got the biggest win thus far this season for Chicago going 8.1 innings allowing five hits one run (earned) walking just one and striking out four.
Rick Landenberger got the final two outs of the ninth inning when Wynne's began suffering leg cramps.
Bob Thompson (3-6) took the loss ofr Pittsburgh.
Andy McDaniel and Billy Kilhullen each had two hits for half of the eight Chicago hits in the game.
========================================
Arizona 4 Montreal 3 (10 innings)
Arizona tied the game in the 8th inning on a George Bell run scoring single scoring pinch runner Cecil Upshaw running for Aaron Hill who reached on an error.
Bell came up in the 10th inning and drove in Devon White (0ne out walk by LP Bill Tobin 3-2).
====================================
Brooklyn 14 Milwaukee 11
Awwww a good slugfest is always very good for batting averages and very bad on pitcher's ERA and this was a dozy of a slugfest.
Brooklyn had 17 hits to push across their eleven runs to improve to 21-19 two games out of first place.
There were four homeruns in the game.
Gerry Leonard (5th homer) hit a grand slam for Milwaukee in the 6 run 3rd inning off Joey Stewart. The slam came with one out in the inning.
Milwaukee went ahead 6-3 but that would not be enough.
Brookly had three; two back to back in the first inning when they took a short lived 3-0 lead.
Dave Berry's 4th came with one on and no outs. Salomon Rothfuss followed him with a solo shot that cleared the score board in left field.
Nick McGillen had a solo homerun in the 4th for Brooklyn that made it 8-4 Milwaukee.
Brooklyn went on a scoring frenzy in their extra long eighth inning when eleven Brooklyn batters batted. Brooklyn had seven hits in the inning, six singles and one triple plus one walk ando ne stolen base.
There were no errors and one runner left on base.
Curt Torborg had two hits in the inning. Torborg led off with the first of three straight singles for Brooklyn and came in to score on Jesse Coakley's single.
Torborg was batter number ten in the inning and singled in Nick McGillen who had tripled in a run.
Milwaukee used three pitchers in the inning; Vance Dean, did not retire a batter (four hits five runs (earned) one walk), Dave Damon went just two third of an inning and was charged with three hits and two runs, both earned. Stephen Yoter got the final out of the inning recording the only strikeout of the inning to get Henry Grossman.
