Center fielder Larry Doby cracked 2 homeruns and had 4 RBI at Municipal

Stadium as the Cleveland Indians beat the New York Yankees by the count of 11

to 4.



Doby was really 'in the zone'. He blasted a solo shot in the 5th inning,

doubled which plated a run in the 6th inning and lifted one out of the park

for a two run home run (his 23rd of the season) in the 8th inning. Cleveland

finished with 15 hits while New York ended up with 8.



Bob Lemon(20-9) went 6 innings allowing 4 runs for the victory. Lemon got

relief help from Al Benton who gained credit for his 20th save. Allie

Reynolds(15-7) suffered the loss. He allowed 9 hits and 3 walks in 4 and 1/3

innings.



This win by Cleveland continues their recent hot streak. In their last ten

games, they have a record of 8-2. For the season, they are 88-51. With an

impressive recent record of 8-2, New York hopes this will only be an isolated

loss - followed by another nice run.
