Indians Move Into First Place
In a chaotic MLB day Ken Johnson pitched a no hitter that was broken in the ninth but he may be the only pitcher to lose a no hitter. Ken McBride tied an American League record by hitting four batters in a game and forcing in the tying run in the ninth. The Orioles split a doubleheader with Boston as Robin Roberts won the nightcap and Steve Barber left the opener with a shoulder injury. Washington edged Minnesota 5 4 as Bill Skowron drove in the winning run in the eighth. Donovan earned the win for Cleveland after McBride’s wild ninth and an infield out plus error sequence.
