NOTES: In this game, the key players in the blockbuster trade from December 2,1966 were the story here. On the plus side for the Cherubs, the two lefty sluggers produced all the runs. In fact, Jimmy Hall had one helluva series. Adding his 4-4 in this game, Hall collected 2 doubles, 3 homers, driving in 4 while hitting .727 (8-11), including the game winning RBI in this contest.

STAR OF THE GAME 4-4 HR RBI
