WEB GEMS- Bot 6th: Ned Garver robbed Dick Kokos of a base hit.
Ralph Kiner had 4 hits and 2 RBI as the New York Yankees ballclub embarrassed
the Pittsburgh Pirates by the count of 12 to 2.
Ned Garver(10-8) contributed a pedestrian performance to earn the win. He
allowed 8 hits and 2 walks in 6 innings. New York finished with 17 hits
while Pittsburgh ended up with 10.
Al Brazle(2-12) was charged with the loss. He was knocked around,
surrendering 9 runs in 2 innings. The New York ballclub's record now stands
at 76-60. Andy Spector was pretty down after the loss. 'We've really been
sputtering along lately, something like 2-8 in the last week or two. That
won't get it done.'
