Gibson's first major league homer seals 3 1 win at Fenway
Red Sox catcher Russ Gibson, after years of minor league battles, belted his first majors homer in a 3 1 victory over the Yankees at Fenway Park. The drive came off Yankee rookie Joe Verbanic as Gibson capped a long arc from Durfee High to Toronto and Boston. His father hoped to witness the moment from the hospital as Gibson continues to push toward a sustained big league career.
