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.
