Ford Hurls Yanks To World Title In Six-Game Sweep
Ed Ford, youngest Yankee, pitched New York to its 18th World Series title, defeating the Philadelphia Phillies 5 2. The Phillies rallied briefly in the ninth but Ford held firm, struck out seven, and Willie Jones started the late rally before Gene Woodling secured the ball in left and preserved the win. Bob Miller opened for the Phillies, but a costly first-inning error and a wild pitch by Miller sparked the Yankee offense led by DiMaggio's double. Manager Eddie Sawyer swapped to Konstanty, who fanned Lopata, but the Yankees clinched the series as Ford sealed the victory.
