The things it takes for the Cubs to lose games are truly worthy of the "Believe It Or Not" books. Today it was: - hit into a triple play in the ninth, - have Vada (90% chance of scoring) Pinson gunned at the plate in the tenth, - finally take a 1-0 lead in the 15th, but hit the first TWO batters in the bottom of the inning and choke up a game-tying two-out single, - lose in the 16th - without allowing a hit - on that potent offensive combination of: walk, ground out (runner advances), fly out (runner advances), wild pitch (runner scores). The Mets are assured of the N.L. pennant in 1964, unless the schedule happens to call for them to eventually play somebody other than the Cubs.
