Mantle benched after grounder lapse in Yankee loss
New York Yankees star Mickey Mantle faces possible punishment after he failed to run out a ground ball in Sunday's doubleheader with Washington. Manager Casey Stengel pulled Mantle in the second game, citing the lapse as inexcusable, while Mantle claimed he thought there were two outs. The Yankees dropped both games and fell out of first place as Baltimore led.
