Morrie Martin(2-0) and Virgil Trucks(1-4) locked horns in a pitcher's duel
with Martin and the Philadelphia-AL Athletics coming out on top of the New
York-AL Yankees 1 to 0.

Martin pitched a fine game.  He went 5 and 2/3 innings and surrended up 4 hits
and 3 walks.  Mike Garcia was perfect in relief and gained credit for his 2nd
save.  

The Philadelphia-AL ballclub's record now stands at 12-12.  Robert Baker was
pretty down after the loss.  'We've really been sputtering along lately,
something like 2-8 in the last week or two.  That won't get it done.'
