1962 NL Standings

 August 1, 1962

  We've reached the month of August in this 1962 NL season. The San Francisco Giants have opened up a bigger lead over the rest of the league. Granted, it's only 4.5 games over the 2nd place Pittsburgh Pirates, but that is the biggest lead any team has had so far in this highly contested season. Half the league still has a shot at the pennant. The Milwaukee Braves had the best record in July, 20-10, and are finally nearing the .500 mark.
