Roberto Clemente’s walk-off wall-banger makes it 19 straight for Elroy Face. At Forbes Field, the Pirates reliever blows a four-out save against St. Louis, thanks to Bill White’s RBI single, but gets out of trouble and settles down long enough to reap the benefits of the Bucs’ bats. “The Pirates won their 12th of 13 extra-inning games,” reports the Associated Press, “when Roberto Clemente smashed a hit off the right-field wall with the bases filled in the 10th.” Face’s record goes to 14-0 with the win; his streak will extend to 22 before he takes his first and only loss of the year, en route to an unprecedented 18-1 season.
