Larry Doby jacked one out of the ballyard and had 2 RBI and Early Wynn pitched
a complete game at Municipal Stadium as the Cleveland Indians came back
dramatically to top the New York Yankees by the score of 4 to 3.
Cleveland scored the decisive runs in a big bottom of the 9th inning with 2
runs on 2 hits. Johnny Berardino led off and he delivered a one-base hit.
Joe Gordon followed and he drew a walk. Ray Boone then grounded into a
double play. Doby came up and he lifted one out of the park for a two run
home run (his 12th of the season) giving Cleveland the victory as 56,893
happy fans celebrated wildly. Cleveland had a total of 9 hits for the game.
The winning pitcher was Wynn(10-5) who allowed 3 runs for the game. The losing
pitcher was Tommy Byrne(11-5). He allowed 9 hits and 8 walks in 8 and 2/3
innings.
'Now that is what I call fun! I just love baseball, especially games like
this, of course,' Lou Boudreau offered. 'Everyone at the stadium had a great
time - did you see the fans go wild there at the end?!'
