Downing and Morehead Wish for No-Hitters Fails
Al Downing of the New York Yankees and Dave Morehead of the Boston Red Sox both flirted with no-hitters. Downing held the Chicago White Sox hitless through 64 innings before a hit ended his bid, earning a 1-0 win. Morehead carried a no-hitter into the eighth against the Cleveland Indians, finishing with a 6-1 victory in a two hitter. Both pitchers focused on the win, as Downing earned his third victory and the Yankees extended a winning streak to five and a three-game AL lead.
