Ed Lopat allowed Casey Stengel to rest his bullpen, tossing a complete game as

the incredible New York Yankees defeated the slumping Detroit Tigers 3 to 2

at Yankee Stadium.



New York tallied 2 runs in the bottom of the 7th inning when they had 3 base

hits. Bobby Brown led off and he laced a one-base hit. Lopat stepped up

next and he laid down a sacrifice bunt. Phil Rizzuto then doubled scoring a

run. Jerry Coleman stepped in and he slapped a base-hit scoring the final

run of the inning. Detroit had a chance to come back in the 9th but they

came up short.



The winning pitcher was Lopat(9-4) who allowed 2 runs for the game. Art

Houtteman(10-8) absorbed the loss. Casey Stengel was in a talkative mood in

the clubhouse, 'Great game! If only we could win all of the close ones -

wouldn't that be nice! Since that's not going to happen, I think I'll savor

this one for a little while.'
