WEB GEMS- Bot 8th: Lou Boudreau robbed Johnny Pesky of a base hit.
Left fielder Ted Williams slammed 2 homeruns and had 6 RBI as the Boston Red
Sox destroyed the Cleveland Indians by a score of 12 to 2 at Cleveland
Stadium.
Williams was unconscious all day. The Cleveland fans hated to see him
approaching the batter's box as he just kept delivering base hits! He slapped
a base-hit in the 3rd inning, lofted a three-run 'big-fly' in the 6th inning
and belted a three-run homer in the 8th inning. Boston kept the scorekeepers
busy in the 6th inning with 5 runs on 6 hits and the 8th inning when they had
4 runs on 6 hits. Boston had 20 hits for the game and Cleveland had 5.
Rex Barney(7-2) went 6 innings allowing 2 runs for the victory. Barney got
relief help from Ed Klieman who gained credit for his 2nd save. The losing
pitcher was Dave Koslo(2-2). He was touched for 8 hits and 2 walks in 5
innings.
Wth the win Boston now has a record of a league leading 30-13. With the loss
Cleveland now has a record of 16-11.
