On September 23, 1964 — The sizzling Yanks win their 9th in a row, defeating the Tribe, 4 – 3, in 11 innings, and 6 – 4. Elston Howard’s homer off Louie Tiant snaps a tie in the opener. John Romano homers in each game for the Indians while recently-acquired Pedro Ramos finishes up both games for New York. Ramos, however, will not be eligible for the World Series.
