Milwaukee Win 7-5 To Square World Series At Two Games Each

Milwaukee, Oct. 6. Burly Eddie Mathews crashed a towering two-run homer in the 10th inning today, as the "fold-up" Braves refused to fold, to give embattled Milwaukee a 7 to 5 triumph over the New York Yankees and square the series at two games each.

It was a wild and wooly finish on this gray, chilly day and 45,804 madly partisan fans alternately groaned and cheered as Elston Howard's three-run homer in the ninth tied it up at 4 to 4, Hank Bauer's 10th inning triple sent Tony Kubek racing home with a Yankee lead in the top of the 10th-and Johnny Logan's double in the bottom of the 10th tied it up again before Mathews delivered the pay-off poke.
