Yankees Struggle Early as Pace Slips in 1958 Start
The New York Yankees show signs of panic as they split their first six games. Only Hank Bauer hits over .300, while Mantle, Berra, and others languish below .200. Coach Stengel criticizes fielding errors by McDougald and Rizzuto as the Yankees face the White Sox and Indians.
