Left fielder Gene Woodling lofted one into the 'cheap seats' and had 2 RBI as
the potent Cleveland Indians defeated the hapless Baltimore Orioles 7 to 0 at
Memorial Stadium.
Cleveland promptly took the lead in their half of the first scoring one
runner. After two outs Woodling single-handedly provided the offense with a
solo home run (his 9th of the season). The early run support proved
sufficient for Art Houtteman(5-9) and Cleveland. That was all the run
support Houtteman required. Cleveland simply wore out the Baltimore pitching
staff, scoring in 6 different innings.
Erv Palica(4-14) was the loser. He pitched 6 innings and surrendered 4 hits
and 3 walks.
