Herm Wehmeier retired 11 batters on strikeouts as the New York-AL Yankees
defeated the Brooklyn Dodgers by a score of 4 to 2 at Yankee
Stadium.

Wehmeier(1-0) looked very much in control throughout the night.  He didn't
give up much, just 6 hits and no walks in 8 innings.  New York-AL had 9 hits
for the night while Brooklyn had 6.  

Jack Meyer got the save, his 1st. Luis Arroyo(0-1) was the losing pitcher.
Robert Baker was asked about the performance of Wehmeier, 'He had his good
stuff out there tonight.  The fans really get into it when the strikeouts
start mounting up - and that seems to give him even more adrenalin.'
