WEB GEMS- Top 1st: Bobby Avila robbed Eddie Yost of a base hit.
In a tight game it was the New York-AL Yankees 4, the Philadelphia-AL
Athletics 2 at Connie Mack Stadium.
Philadelphia-AL fell behind quickly as the New York-AL offense came through in
the first inning plating an isolated run. After two were out Minnie Minoso
tripled. Mike Garcia then let one get away for a wild pitch scoring the run.
Although they lost, Philadelphia-AL did out-hit New York-AL 9 to 6.
The win went to Mel Parnell(11-6) who allowed 1 run in 6 and 2/3 innings.
Sonny Dixon gained credit for his 2nd save. Garcia(12-11) was hit with the
loss.
'I didn't have my best stuff but sometimes you just get lucky,' Parnell said,
'this was one of those times.'
