In an entertaining game at Forbes Field the final score was the New York-AL
Yankees 11, the Pittsburgh Pirates 8.
New York-AL brought 10 runs across the plate in the 7th inning when they came
up with 6 base hits. The crucial at-bat was provided by Richie Ashburn who
deflated the mood of the partisan fans when he tripled with all three runners
coming home. Pittsburgh had a chance in the 9th but they came up short.
Mel Parnell(3-1) got the win allowing 4 runs in 6 innings. Bob Kuzava recorded
the save, his 3rd. The loss was charged to Billy Pierce(1-4).
Andy Spector was subdued when questioned after the game, 'Sure, this kind of
loss takes a while to get over, but heck, we're all professionals. We've
been through this many times - it's the nature of the game. We'll be fine -
as for me - I'll be ready to go again tomorrow!'
