In a dramatic ending, the dominant New York Yankees staged a comeback win over
the Washington Nationals by the count of 7 to 5.
New York scored the decisive runs in a big bottom of the 9th inning scoring 3
runs using 4 hits. Joe Collins led off and started the rally when he laced a
base-hit. Pedro Ramos then picked Rizzuto off first base. Gil McDougald
then delivered a single. Andy Carey followed and he lined a one-base hit.
Mickey Mantle came to the plate and rifled a three-run blast (his 23rd of the
season) making New York the victors to the delight of the home town faithful.
New York had a total of 12 hits for the game.
The win was credited to Tom Sturdivant(1-2) who went 2 innings allowing no
runs. The loss was charged to Ramos(0-4) in relief.
Casey Stengel was ebullient after the game, 'It's great to win a hard fought
game like that. Our guys just weren't going to be denied. And did you see
the fans - they were going wild! Yes sir, a very enjoyable win this
afternoon!'
Ray Boone homers twice driving in 5 runs as the Tigers outscore the Athletics 7-3 ending their 5 game losing streak.

Ray Boone cracked 2 homeruns and had 5 RBI and Ned Garver went the distance at
Municipal Stadium as the Detroit Tigers beat the Kansas City Athletics 7 to
3.
Boone was a seemingly constant irritant to the hometown fans as he provided
much of the offense for the visitors. He lost the ball over the fence for
three runs in the 1st inning and popped a two-run clout over the fence (his
7th of the season) in the 9th inning. Detroit banged out 11 on the
afternoon.
The victory was credited to Garver(7-4) who went the distance, allowing 3
runs. Ray Herbert(2-6) was given the loss. He allowed 5 runs and 9 hits in 7
and 1/3 innings.
Gus Zernial hits a walk off 3 run homer as Kansas City scores 5 in the 9th for a 5-3 win over Detroit in the first of two games
