First baseman Ralph Kiner hit a homerun and had 2 RBI and Robin Roberts threw
a 2 hitter at Griffith Stadium as the New York-AL Yankees beat the Washington
Nationals by the count of 8 to 1.

New York-AL claimed the early lead in the first inning when they came up with
5 runs on 3 hits.  That early run support was all that Roberts(2-2) required.
New York-AL finished with 13 hits in the victory.  

Don Newcombe(0-2) was the losing pitcher.  He gave up 6 runs and 9 hits in 7
and 1/3 innings.  'He had his 'A' game tonight,' Robert Baker said of
Roberts.  'Very impressive performance.'
