The New York-AL Yankees put 4 runs on the scoreboard in the 3rd inning and
bested the Chicago-NL Cubs in 12 innings by a 8 to 5 score at Wrigley
Field.

Both teams had scored 5 runs after nine full innings.  New York-AL won it in
the 12th inning.  After two were out Vern Stephens got things going when he
lashed a single.  Billy Goodman was next and he delivered a base-hit.
Goodman took second on the throw.  Billy Cox then doubled which was good for
two runs.  Mickey Mantle was up next and he stroked a single scoring the
final run of the inning.  New York-AL had a total of 14 hits for the game.

The victory went to Ted Wilks(1-0) who went 3 and 2/3 innings, allowing no
runs. Wilks was helped out by Bob Kuzava who recorded his 1st save.  The loss
was charged to Jim Konstanty(0-3) in relief.
