Braves 4, Cub-Umps 1

Until the Braves win a challenge not involving CB Bucknor, I will refer to all opposing teams as hyphenated umps.

After 41 games, the 1966 Braves were ensconced in 7th place, 8 games out with a 19-22 record. In their next game, they lost to Milt Pappas and the Reds again 6-3, before just under 7,000 spectators at Crosley Field. Tony Cloninger took the loss. Hank Aaron had his 33rd RBI and was starting to hit well.

I am in Europe, so I replicated an important part of my baseball experience of 1966.
