The score was tied at 3 after nine. Finally, Boston-AL pulled the game out in the 15th inning. After two outs Ted Williams lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' giving Boston-AL the win and sending the home town fans into a frenzy. This was the kind of game that many fans love as the lead changed hands 5 times. Mickey Harris(4-2) got credit for the victory, pitching 3 innings and allowing 3 runs. Ellis Kinder(2-2) was the loser in relief.
