Catchers Fall Flat as Tigers Sweep by Orioles
The Associated Press recounts a rough day for Detroit catchers Bill Freehan and Mike Rourke as Baltimore swept the Tigers 7-1. Freehan’s nightcap miscue led to runs, while Rourke’s pickoff attempt sailed into left field, widening the gap. Norm Siebern started a scoring sequence in the opener, and Milt Pappas plus Dick Hall closed out the win. The broader AL slate saw Minnesota, Chicago, New York, and Washington posting wins or splits alongside Battey’s hospital visit after a foul-ball collision.
