Minoso provided much of the offense. He cracked a two-run shot in the 3rd inning, doubled scoring two baserunners in the 5th inning and singled in the 7th inning. New York-AL simply wore out the Philadelphia-AL pitching staff, scoring in 6 different innings. The victory was credited to Fricano(6-11) who went the distance, allowing 2 runs.
