Description
Photograph caption dated October 3, 1962 reads, "Dodgers won Tuesday, play again today." Photograph article partially reads, "If the game of baseball scheduled to be played this afternoon at Chavez Ravine couldn't be termed the most important of the National League season, then someone ought to have his semantics examined...Nearly prostrate after failing to score a single run in slightly better than 35 previous innings, the Dodgers got seven scores in the sixth, one more in the ninth and won, 8-7, to even the pennant playoff at one game each."
