Young Yankee Pitchers Show Power For Future
Two young Yankee arms, Al Downing and Jim Bouton, emerge as the core of a looming dynasty. Downing pitched a seven inning no hitter and finished a two hit shutout to improve to 10-4, while Bouton worked eight innings of no hit ball in a 5-0 shutout to move to 18-6, the staff leading the American League. Ralph Terry added a 5-hitter for his 15th win as New York built a 1 244 game lead, in a doubleheader sweep over Boston. Other AL results saw Chicago and Minnesota tied for second, Kansas City beating Baltimore, and Detroit defeating Los Angeles.
