Indians shift Wertz to first boosts defense in Bronx
After a 3 2 loss in the Yankee Stadium finale Cleveland Manager Al Lopez defends Vic Wertz at first base despite two sixth inning errors. Wertz’s move has improved defense over former fill-in Al Rosen, while his bat remains a danger. The series left both teams energized but chasing the pace set by Tuesday’s win. Lopez vowed to keep pressing them one game at a time as they head to Chicago. Casey Stengel echoed relief but warned the days are passing quickly.
