Yorks Extra Inning Homer Brecheen Harris Tangle In Mesa
In a 1946 World Series opener Boston edged St Louis 3 2 in 10 innings after Rudy York tied the game with a 375 foot homer off Howie Pollet. Joe Cronin rode pitching and a late rally to top the Cardinals with Earl Johnson tossing the final frames. Brecheen and Harris set today’s pitching match up as the series moves to Sportsman’s Park. The crowd reached 36 218 in a tale of blocked baserunning and tense calls on obstruction.
