October 4, 1969 In a very well pitched game the New York Mets defeated the Atlanta Braves 2-1, winning game 1 of the NLCS. New York's Jerry Koosman and Atlanta's Phil Niekro locked up in a pitchers duel thru the 1st 7 innings before Niekro left for a pinch hitter with the score tied at 1. The Mets scored the winning run in the 9th when Cleon Jones hit an RBI double with 2 outs off Hoyt Wilhelm. Koosman went the distance for New York, allowing only 4 hits and 1 run to the hard hitting Braves. Game 2 will be tomorrow night at Fulton County Stadium with Atlanta's Ron Reed pitching against New York's Tom Seaver. |

WEB GEMS- Top 8th: Felix Millan robbed Ron Swoboda of a base hit.
Jerry Koosman went 9 strong innings as the New York Mets defeated the Atlanta
Braves by a score of 2 to 1 at Fulton Co. Stadium.
The game was won by New York when they scored a run in the 9th inning. After
two outs Tommie Agee drew a walk. Bud Harrelson was next and he ripped a
base-hit. Cleon Jones then doubled. Art Shamsky followed and he was walked
intentionally to load the bases. Ron Swoboda got his turn next, but he was a
strikeout victim. New York banged out 10 hits on the afternoon.
Koosman(1-0) got the victory, allowing 1 run for the game. Paul Doyle(0-1) was
given the loss in relief. 'I've been working on a few things in my delivery,
and I think I'm hitting a good groove.' Koosman said after the game. 'I'm
ready to start another game tomorrow!'
