The back end of this 2 game set features the aces of each staff. Lefty guru, Gary Peters looks to keep up his strong pitching and Stott looks to rebound from his first loss of the season. The sparse crowd certainly will enjoy this matchup.
Ken Berry lead off with a sharp single but was left hanging. Bottom 1, Tresh doubled with one out but Peters whiffed Yankee stalwarts Mantle and Howard. Top 2, Adair, who is having fine season, singled, Martin walked and Ron Hansen doubled both in. Peters singled, Hansen advancing to 3rd. Buford made it 3-0 with a single. Top 4, JC Martin enjoyed the perks of a left handed hitter in a Yankee stadium, poking a solo shot adding to the lead. Meanwhile, Peters had his way with the Yanks, his only generosity being a couple of free passes thru 7. Bottom 8, a walk and a single infused life into the home club. Peters took control punching out the next 2 bringing up the Mick. Mantle found the deepest part of the park out of the reach of Agee and Stroud, doubling in a pair, halving the lead. That was enough for Mgr Eddie Stankey who brought in Fireman Bob Locker who nailed down the win for the Sox.
The win was the sixth straight triumph of the Southsiders, all on the road. They also are 11-1 since opening day. Ron Hansen has hit on 5 straight games and leads the team with 10 RBI’s. Yanks dropped their 5th in a row all against both Sox.
