Bob Turley allowed only 2 hits resulting in a big goose egg on the scoreboard

for Kansas City and right fielder Joe Collins left the yard as the incredible

New York Yankees defeated the Kansas City Athletics 1 to 0 at Municipal

Stadium.



The game was decided in the top of the 9th inning. Collins cracked a solo

homerun (his 10th of the season). Both teams ended up with 2 on the

afternoon.



It was the 5th shutout of the year for Turley(11-5). Ray Herbert(2-7) was

given the loss. He pitched 9 innings allowing only 2 hits and 4 walks.



'I thought it was my best performance in a long time,' said Turley. 'I had

good command early in the game. I had my control and composure and everything

went well.'










 

Norm Zauchin hit a 3 run blast as the Red Sox score 7 runs in the 2nd inning and hold on for a 7-6 win over the White Sox.

Mike Garcia went the distance at Municipal Stadium as the Cleveland Indians

beat the Baltimore Orioles by the count of 6 to 3.



In the bottom of the 3rd inning Cleveland scored 2 runs. After an out was

recorded, Al Smith initiated the scoring spurt when he was hit by a pitch.

One out later, Larry Doby stepped in and he singled. Bill Wight then was

wild with a pitch. Hank Foiles followed and he doubled driving home two

runs. That early scoring was all that Garcia(9-8) needed. Cleveland banged

out 11 on the afternoon.



Wight(1-1) ended up with the loss. He was hit hard and gave up 11 hits and 2

walks in 5 and 2/3 innings.

game without help from the bullpen at Briggs Stadium as the Detroit Tigers

beat the Washington Nationals 3 to 2.



Garver(10-5) pitched a fine game. He allowed 10 hits and 3 walks in 9

innings. Washington made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to

push the needed runs across.



Mickey McDermott(3-7) ended up with the loss in relief. He surrendered 2 hits

and no walks in 1 inning. 'I was a little good, a little bad and a little

ugly.' said Garver, 'I was just giving us a chance to win.'
