Mays who won tuesday night s game with his eighth Homer delivered his ninth of the season in the third inning after a double by Ron  blows dealt Nelson Briles his fourth loss against five wins. The cardinals had taken a 1-0lead in the first inning when Lou Brock led off with a double moved to third on Curt flood s ens Ench by Ben Abrams the inevitable has arrived. The National league has decide to follow the american league and expand to 12 teams for the 1969 Campaign. The vote to expand in t surprising but the selection of Montralas one of the two new clubs might cause an Eyebrow or two to be raised. Pre expansion chatter indicated that san Diego probably would be one of the chosen Sites but Dallas fort Worth and Milwaukee had been forecast As other Likely possibilities. Montreal an Buffalo had submitted formal applications but neither was considered along press Row to have much of a  goes to prove a couple of Points All the baseball experts Aren t along press Row and baseball As Joe Garagiola has already contended is a funny game. You just Don t know what will happen next in our National pastime. There can t be any argument whatsoever with the selection of san Diego. Southern California weather is Ideal for baseball and san Diego has a new $28 million Dollar  the surface both Dallas fort Worth and Milwaukee appeared to have a better claim than Montreal.

The dodgers operated Montreal As a member of the inter a Anu anal league for qute a few years and it Drew better than600,000 in Only one season. A season Gate of 600,000 is All right in the minors but it will not Cut it in the major league format. The latest figures indicate that one million paid admissions is the break even Point i major league baseball. This might be Low when one considers that the National league is demanding $10,000,000 for its new franchises $200,000 per Man for 30 players plus an additional $400,000.
