PreviousBraves slugger Sid Gordon ties the major-league record for season grand slams with four when he hits one against the Phillies. Boston’s 12 – 9 win in game two gives the two teams a total of 40 runs, 55 hits, and 90 total bases for the day.
NextIn a sloppy game that features 18 walks, Cliff Mapes drives in five runs with a homer and single to pace the Yankees to a 12 – 8 win over the Athletics. Tommy Byrne (9-3) is the winner despite giving up six hits and six walks in five innings (he walks two in the 6th). He also hits four batters to tie the major league record. Alex Kellner pitches four innings, giving up six runs in the loss. The A’s lose Eddie Joost who tears ligaments in his left knee in a collision with Mapes at second base in the 7th.
