Mickey Mantle goes 3 for 3 and drives in three runs as the Yankees edge the Red Sox, 3 – 2. Mantle improves his average to .384 while Ted Williams, with 1 for 2, is at .388. A week later, Mantle will injure himself when he angrily swings a golf club at a branch and gouges his shinbone. This will effectively take him out of the running for a second straight Triple Crown.
