The game started off with Chicago-NL taking the lead in the first scoring one runner on 2 base hits. Reese banged out a single. Reese took second on a stolen base. Two outs later Frank Thomas came up and he stroked a one-base hit scoring the run. New York-AL threatened in the 9th but their rally came up short.
