SimLeague Baseball

On June 11, 1948 The Indians hold on to beat the Yankees‚ 10 – 8‚ as reliever Bob Feller fans Sherm Lollar with the bases full to end the game. Joe DiMaggio had led off the 9th with a homer. Game highlights include Yogi Berra getting tossed by Cal Hubbard and young Bobby Brown being replaced at 2B in the 8th by George Stirnweiss‚ a move that will remain permanent for the season. Lou Boudreau ends a Tribe rally in the 7th by striking out – his first K in 42 games. The game – interrupted by rain and a fans’ missile barrage – ends at 12:20 a.m.
