The New York Yankees readily handled Boston Red Sox by a score of 6 to 2 at Fenway Park. New York drew first blood jumping out to an early lead in the first inning when they scored 4 runs on 4 hits. That scoring would be all that was needed. New York finished with 9 hits while Boston ended up with 5. Bob Rush(3-5) got the win allowing 2 runs in 5 innings. Ralph Branca(14-8) ended up with the loss. He gave up 4 hits and 1 walk in 1 inning.
