22,647 fans watched an exciting game at Yankee Stadium.  The New York Yankees
topped the slumping Kansas City Athletics by the slimmest of margins, 3 to
2.
 
Whitey Ford(8-4) pitched a fine game.  He was reached for 5 hits and 1 walk in
8 innings.  Kansas City made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to
push the needed runs across.  
 
Jim Konstanty earned the save, his 7th.  Art Ditmar(2-4) was the loser.  He
surrendered 3 runs and 6 hits in 7 innings.  Lou Boudreau was reflective
after the loss, 'We should have won this one, we just made one too many
mistakes.  Son-of-a-gun, that added a couple more white hairs on this noggin
of mine.'
