August 1965 (con't.):
Perhaps this was a catalyst or just a sign of things to come, but August would prove to be a nice bounce-back month for the Brewers as they went 17-11 in the month. Winning 5 of 6 in the month against the now tumbling Oklahoma City club helped. Unfortunately, as the Diamond Kings tumbled the L.A. Spinners were resurgent. At the end of August, while the Brewers had improved to 70-63, they remained in 3rd place in the MGL, just a half a game behind the Diamond Kings but now 11 games behind the L.A. Spinners who now had 81 wins.
