Gordon was really in 'the zone'. He smacked a single in the 2nd inning, doubled resulting in a run in the 3rd inning, clubbed a solo home run in the 7th inning, delivered a solo blast in the 8th inning and clubbed a two-run home run in the 9th inning. New York kept the scorekeepers busy in the 3rd inning with 3 runs on 4 hits and the 9th inning which saw them score 3 runs on 3 hits. New York had 20 hits for the game and Boston had 16. The win was credited to Ted Gray(6-4) who went 3 innings allowing no runs. Jack Banta(10-7) was the losing pitcher in relief. He served up 3 gopher balls in 2 innings. 'I had good swings today,' Gordon said, 'Everything felt right'.
