TEAM RISP- Pirates: 3 for 7 Yankees: 0 for 1
Bill Skowron smacked 2 homeruns as the New York-AL Yankees were badly beaten
by the Pittsburgh Pirates, 12 to 1.
Skowron was in a groove all day. The New York-AL fans hated to see him
approaching the batter's box. He lost the ball over the fence for three runs
in the 1st inning, ripped a base-knock in the 6th inning and quieted the
crowd by clouting a Grand Slam in the 6th inning. Pittsburgh out-hit New
York-AL for the game, 8 hits to 3.
The victory went to Billy Pierce(6-1) who went 5 innings, allowing 1 run.
Pierce got help from Jack Harshman who was credited with his 1st save. Tommy
Byrne(0-2) was the losing pitcher. He was not very effective, surrendering
12 runs in 9 innings.
'I had good swings today,' Skowron said, 'Everything felt right'.
