WEB GEMS- Bot 4th: Hank Bauer robbed Willie Miranda of an extra base hit.
Jim Dyck had 2 base hits and Ray Moore took a no-hitter into the 6th inning as
the Baltimore Orioles outscored the New York Yankees 4 to 3.
Moore(6-13) had a solid outing for Baltimore. He went 6 and 1/3 innings
allowing 3 hits and 6 walks. The right-handed Moore had his no-hit bid
broken up by Hank Bauer who singled with nobody out in the 6th inning. New
York threatened in the 9th but Baltimore was able to put down the rally.
Moore was helped out by George Zuverink who recorded his 2nd save. Rip
Coleman(0-1) suffered the loss. Casey Stengel was clearly disappointed after
the game. 'It was a manager's nightmare out there', he said, 'We should have
had this one.'
Jim Dyck hit a walk off single as the Orioles rallied for 3-2 win over the Yankees in the 1st of two games.

Bill Wight went the distance as the Baltimore Orioles rallied impressively to
win in dramatic style over New York Yankees, 3 to 2.
Baltimore won the game with a rally in the 9th inning with 3 runs utilizing 4
base hits. Bob Hale opened up the inning nicely when he slapped a single.
Dave Pope came next and he doubled. Dave Philley then ripped a base-knock
knocking home two runners. Philley took second on the throw. Jim Dyck came
up and he banged out a single resulting in a mighty exciting win for
Baltimore and the 9,686 home town fans in attendance. The teams had been
locked in a scoreless duel until the 6th inning.
Wight(3-3) lasted until the end allowing 2 runs for the win. Bob Turley(12-9)
took the loss in relief. Wight and Cal Abrams were really whooping it up in
the clubhouse after the great come from behind victory. As Paul Richards
noted, 'A win like this one can do wonders for a team's attitude.' Everyone
shares in the joy - the fans, the players - even you guys - it's better than
winning by a dozen runs!'
