Thursday, August 25, 1960---Cubs right-hander Glen Hobbie got the best of the Pirates’ Vinegar Bend Mizell as the Cubs won, 2-1. Both starters went the distance. The Pirates (75-46) took a quick 1-0 lead in the top of the first inning when Gino Cimoli, playing LF for the injured Bob Skinner, walked and came around to score after hits by Stuart and Clemente. Ernie Banks took Mizell deep in the second inning for his 36th HR of the year (by comparison, Stuart led the Bucs with 17 HRs) to tie the score at 1-1.

Wednesday, August 24, 1960---The Pirates squandered leads of 4-0 and 6-3 before defeating the Cubs 10-6 to move 30 games over .500 at 75-45. In the second inning, Clemente led off with a single against Cubs starter Don Cardwell and scored on a triple by Burgess (yes, the little round guy tripled). After Hoak popped up to second baseman Don Zimmer, Mazeroski sent a grounder to Zimmer, who threw out Burgess at the plate. But Law singled and Virdon beat out a grounder to Zimmer at second, who threw the ball away for a single and an error as Mazeroski scored and Virdon went to second.

Saturday, August 20, 1960---The Pirates handed starter Tom Cheney an early 8-0 lead, but the rookie couldn’t hang around long enough to get the win. The Pirates (73-44) opened the second inning against Reds starter Jim Maloney (1-4) with a walk to Stuart and singles by Clemente and Burgess to load the bases. Maloney got Hoak to bounce into a 6-4-3 double play, scoring Stuart. Mazeroski was then intentionally walked to get to Cheney. And that’s when the wheels came off the cart for the Reds. Cheney singled Clemente home. Virdon singled Mazeroski home.

August 19, 1960---Vinegar Bend Mizell had his personal 5-game winning streak ended with a 4-3 loss to the Reds and former Pirate Bob Purkey (13-7). The Pirates managed 12 hits and a walk against Purkey, who did not strike out a batter. But the Bucs scored only 3 runs while stranding 8 and hitting into 2 DPs. First inning doubles by Virdon, Nelson and Clemente gave the Pirates (72-44) a 2-0 lead. Wally Post homered for Cincinnati in the fourth to make it 2-1, and Vada Pinson’s 2-run shot in the fifth capped a 3-run rally that put the Reds ahead 4-2. Mizell was lifted for a pinch hitter in the top of the seventh (Stuart, who popped up), and Clem Labine made his second relief appearance as a Pirate.
