Don Drysdale took a no-hitter into the 6th inning and right fielder Hank Aaron
hit a homerun and had 4 RBI as the New Zealand Kiwis clobbered the outmatched
reeling General Motors Corporate Jets, 12 to 1.
 
Drysdale(9-14) was very good in the win.  He didn't allow much, just 2 hits
and 7 walks in 9 innings.  The right-handed Drysdale had his no-hit bid
broken up by Ernie Banks who singled with nobody out in the 6th inning.
Offensively, New Zealand was a juggernaut.  They scored in 6 separate
innings.  
 
Addie Joss(22-11) took the loss.  He was touched for 11 hits and 5 walks in 5
and 2/3 innings.  This win by New Zealand continues their recent hot streak.
In their last ten games, they have a record of 8-2.  For the season, they are
71-73.  Not able to get much going in recent weeks, General Motors is 1-9 of
late and now has an overall record of 63-77.
