Kansas City took the lead for good in the 2nd inning scoring a single run. After an out was recorded, Charlie Maxwell clubbed a solo home run. New York-AL had a chance in the 9th but they came up short. Antonelli(4-8) got the win allowing 4 runs in 7 innings. Marv Grissom got the save, his 12th. Herm Wehmeier(10-1) was the loser. Jim Murphy was beaming after the game, 'Not only were we making good contact, but a lot of balls we hit seemed to have 'eyes'! I just love winning these tight ones! It was just our evening - no doubt about it!'
