out Doc Cramer.
Then Rudy York was purposely
walked. That was the Yankees
greatest mistake of the day.
Harris was to be the fall guy FOR

which scored Hitchcock.
In rounding out his best pitch

Trout revealed perfect control.
He did not walk a man. Breuer,
almost as steady, gave only three
passes. one of which was York's
intentional walk.
But one Yankee got as far as
third base on Trout and only two
reached second. Buddy Hassett in
the first inning got to third when
