New York-AL had the game winning rally in the 8th inning when they tallied 4 runs on 3 hits. The crucial at-bat was provided by Minnie Minoso who deflated the mood of the partisan fans when he doubled which was good for two runs. New York-AL finished with 7 hits in the victory. Connie Marrero(1-0) allowed 3 runs in 8 and 1/3 innings, and picked up the victory. Bob Kuzava was credited with his 11th save. Vic Raschi(8-10) was charged with the loss. 'I just wanted to give my team a chance to win.' said Marrero, 'I got burned on a couple of pitches. But we won the game, and that's all that matters.'
