WEB GEMS- Top 9th: Chuck Diering robbed Mickey Vernon of an extra base hit.
Ed Lopat had a strong outing as the Baltimore Orioles defeated the Washington
Nationals by a score of 4 to 0 at Memorial Stadium.
Baltimore jumped out to the early lead in the first inning when they tallied 2
runs on 3 hits. That was all the runs Lopat(6-10) needed. Baltimore rapped
out 11 hits for the afternoon.
Chuck Stobbs(6-12) was the losing pitcher. He allowed a few too many
baserunners giving up 11 hits and 4 walks in 8 innings.
Lopat was obviously very pleased with his performance in the aftermath of the
game, 'It was just one of those games where everything worked. My arm felt
great, heck, I could have pitched another two or three innings. I only hope
that I can do it again next time out!'
Larry Doby had 3 RBI as the Indians rallied to a 10-6 win over the Tigers.

The powerful Cleveland Indians toppled the Detroit Tigers by a 10 to 6 score
at Municipal Stadium.
Cleveland came up with 6 runs in the bottom of the 7th inning with the help of
4 hits. The critical plate appearance was by Hoot Evers who came through for
the home fans when he lashed a single scoring two baserunners. Cleveland won
despite being out-hit by Detroit 13 hits to 9.
The winning pitcher was Sal Maglie(3-1) who allowed no runs in 1 inning. Frank
Lary(13-15) was the loser. He was knocked around pretty good, giving up 10
runs in 6 innings.
Sherm Lollar goes 3 for 3 with a homer, 3 RBI, and 4 runs leading the White Sox over the Athletics 11-6.

Sherm Lollar went deep and had 3 RBI at Municipal Stadium as the indomitable
Chicago White Sox beat the Kansas City Athletics 11 to 6.
Lollar had a big day with his bat. He delivered a one-base hit bringing in
two baserunners in the 1st inning, smashed a solo-shot out of the park (his
10th of the season) in the 6th inning and banged out a single in the 8th
inning. Chicago had 13 hits for the game and Kansas City had 9.
Bob Keegan(4-6) got the win allowing 6 runs in 6 innings. The losing pitcher
was Johnny Gray(0-4). His biggest problem was control as he allowed 9 walks
in 4 and 2/3 innings.
Tommy Byrne pitches a 3 hit shutout as the Yankees blank the Red Sox 7-0.

The Washington Nationals came in to the game in quite a tailspin, but they
were able to snap their 5 game slide and edged the Baltimore Orioles in 17
innings at Memorial Stadium by the score of 3 to 2.
Both teams were tied at 2 runs apiece after nine innings. Washington came out
the victor in the 17th inning. After an out was recorded, Tony Roig doubled.
After another out, Pete Runnels stepped in and he lined a single scoring the
run. Washington rapped out 13 hits for the afternoon.
The victory went to Dean Stone(13-8) who went 2 innings, allowing no runs. Erv
Palica(4-16) was the losing pitcher in relief. He allowed 2 hits and no
walks in 3 innings.
Dave Philley's 2 run triple gives Baltimore a split of the doubleheader with Washington 2-1.

in relief. He surrendered 2 runs and 1 hit in 2/3 of an inning.

Tom Gorman was great in relief and Vic Power blasted a homerun and had 2 RBI
as the Kansas City Athletics outscored the Chicago White Sox 14 to
10.
Chicago never recovered after Kansas City took the lead in the bottom of the
7th inning as they scored 5 runs on 2 base hits. The big moment was provided
by Joe Astroth who came through for the home fans when he electrified the
crowd with a Grand Slam home run (his 9th of the season). Chicago was not
lacking for run support as they scored in 5 separate innings, yet victory
eluded them as they seemed to forget that pitching is also needed to win
ballgames.
Gus Keriazakos(1-0) was the winner allowing 1 run in 1 and 2/3 innings. Gorman
earned the save, his 16th. Al Papai(0-1) was the loser in relief. He
allowed 4 runs and 2 hits in 1 and 1/3 innings.
Grady Hatton went 4 for 5 with a double and home run leading the Red Sox over the Yankees 7-2.
