Joe Cronin argues the way to beat the Yankees is to keep DiMaggio leading off and out the hitters before him. The Red Sox rallied to win two straight series in New York, proving they can contend with the champs. Cronin dismisses defeatist talk and stresses pitching depth and doubleheaders as ground gainers.
