New York Yankees Win After Berra Catch Tops Tigers
Yogi Berra, a 36-year-old out of the Yankee roster, made a spectacular 410-foot catch in left field to deny a Jake Wood bid for a triple or homer. The catch helped Bill Stafford to a six-hit win, extending Detroit’s losing streak to five. Roger Maris homered, and the Yankees moved back into first in the American League as other AL games produced varied results. Giants and Braves capitalized in the NL while many teams posted wins and losses.
