In a startling finish the Philadelphia-AL Athletics staged a comeback then
held on to win over the Detroit Tigers by a score of 8 to 6 at Navin
Field.
Philadelphia-AL scored the decisive runs in a big 9th inning as they scored 4
runs on 3 base hits. The key at-bat was by Armando Marsans who silenced the
stadium when he doubled bringing home two baserunners. Philadelphia-AL
rapped out 14 hits for the afternoon.
Buck O'Brien(5-2) went 8 innings allowing 6 runs for the win. Sandy Burk
gained credit for his 3rd save. Wilbur Cooper(2-3) was charged with the loss
in relief. He gave up 3 hits and 2 walks in 1 inning.
Andy Spector was feeling mighty fine as he answered questions in his office
after the game, 'Now that was one fine ending! Did you see how the crowd just
sat there in silence after the winning run scored? Here we are celebrating
wildly, and the stadium is cloaked in virtual silence. Weird. but GREAT!'
