Behind the four-hit pitching of Early Wynn‚ the Indians defeat the White Sox, 2 – 1, in front of a Ladies Night crowd of 70‚119. Wynn’s homer in the 7th breaks the tie created by 2nd-inning homers by Eddie Robinson and Al Rosen. It’s the Tribe’s 9th straight win to stay deadlocked with the Yankees for first place. Loser Joe Dobson‚ who has beaten Wynn twice this year‚ gives up just 6 hits.
