Billy Hoeft shut down the Cleveland batters on just 2 hits at Briggs Stadium
as the Detroit Tigers beat the Cleveland Indians by the count of 1 to
0.
Hoeft(14-8) pitched one of his finer games as he simply was too much for the
Cleveland batters. He allowed only 2 hits and 4 walks in 9 innings. Detroit
had only 4 hits for the game.
The losing pitcher was Early Wynn(10-8). He allowed 1 run and 4 hits in 6
innings.
