Right fielder Mickey Mantle lofted one into the 'cheap seats' and had 2 RBI as
the New York-AL Yankees defeated the Philadelphia-AL Athletics in 16 innings
3 to 2 at Yankee Stadium.

Both teams had scored 2 runs after nine full innings.  New York-AL won the
hard fought contest in the 16th inning.  Minnie Minoso drew a walk.  Ralph
Kiner stepped up to the plate and he drew a walk.  Smoky Burgess then laid
down a sacrifice bunt.  Sid Gordon followed next and he worked the squeeze
play to perfection giving New York-AL the win as 34,106 happy fans joyfully
celebrated.  New York-AL had a total of 8 hits for the game.  

Jim McDonald(2-1) went 3 innings allowing no runs for the victory. Carl
Scheib(1-1) absorbed the loss in relief.  He gave up 1 run and 2 hits in 2
and 1/3 innings.
