New York-AL scored the winning runs in the 9th inning when they tallied 5 runs on 5 hits. The big moment was provided by Eddie Robinson who silenced the stadium when he smacked a three-run homer. New York-AL and Cincinnati each finished the night with 14 hits. The winning pitcher was Bob Kuzava(8-6) who allowed 2 runs in 3 innings. Kuzava got relief help from Jim McDonald who gained credit for his 4th save. Vern Bickford(5-12) was charged with the loss in relief. He surrendered 3 hits and 1 walk in 1 inning. Robert Baker was feeling mighty fine as he answered questions in his office after the game, 'Now that was one fine ending! Did you see how the crowd just sat there in silence after the winning run scored? Here we are celebrating wildly, and the stadium is cloaked in virtual silence. Weird. but GREAT!'
