WEB GEMS- Top 7th: Ernie Banks robbed Sid Gordon of a base hit.

In a good matchup it was the New York-AL Yankees 8, the Chicago-NL Cubs 6 in
12 innings at Wrigely Field.

The score was tied at 6 after nine.  New York-AL came out on top in the 12th
inning.  Richie Ashburn led off the inning for New York-AL when he drew a
walk.  Ashburn took second on a stolen base.  Eddie Yost then ripped a
base-knock plating a run.  Yost took second on the throw.  Don Liddle was a
strikeout victim, unable to help out.  Sid Gordon stepped into the box and
drew a walk.  After another out, Eddie Waitkus came up and he stroked a
base-hit scoring the final run of the inning.  Chicago-NL went down quietly
in the bottom of the 12th.  

Liddle(1-0) got the win allowing no runs in 4 innings. Moe Burtschy(2-3) was
the loser in relief.  He pitched 4 innings and surrendered 4 hits and 4
walks.
