First baseman Earl Torgeson had 2 base hits and 4 RBI and Frank Lary completed
the game without help from the bullpen at Memorial Stadium as the Detroit
Tigers beat the reeling Baltimore Orioles 6 to 2.
Detroit took the lead for good in the top of the 4th inning when they tallied
2 runs on 3 hits. The key offensive moment was provided by Torgeson who
quieted the crowd when he slapped a base-hit bringing in two baserunners.
Both teams finished the game with 10 hits.
Lary(9-11) picked up the complete game victory, allowing 2 runs. The loss was
charged to Art Schallock(0-3). He was knocked around pretty good, giving up
6 runs in 5 innings.
Detroit won for the 6th straight time. Bucky Harris held court after the
contest, 'Everything is coming up aces right now. It is important for our
team to ride this wave as long as we can. Every win is important.'
