Yankees stay alive as Turley shifts to curves in 7-0 win
Bob Turley surprised Milwaukee by pitching the Yankees to a 7-0 victory at Yankee Stadium. He relied on curves and sliders rather than his famed fastball, defying Manager Casey Stengel’s preference and keeping New York in the World Series. Braves hitters Bruton Aaron Mathews and Covington struggled as Turley found the plate.

Burdette Not Ready To Quit Against Yanks
Milwaukee pitcher Lew Burdette says he pitched well but lacked the atom ball in a 7-0 loss to the New York Yankees. He praised Yogi Berra’s double and Hank Bauer and Mickey Mantle’s hits, signaling readiness for another start if manager Fred Haney opts. Burdette notes Berra’s sinker down, Howard’s walk, and Skowron’s single contributions as key moments.
