Cubs Stumble, Lose to Yankees
The Bronx Yankees bested the Chicago Cubs, 9-2, at Yankee Stadium I. Oscar Brown was named player of the game. He was 2 for 4 with 2 doubles, while adding 3 RBI and scoring once. The Yankees bumped their record to 57-52 with this latest triumph.

Gee Walker's at-bat in the bottom of the third inning was a big one for Bronx. Coming to bat with two out, runners on 1st and 3rd and Bronx trailing 1-0, the right fielder reached on an error by the 2B, driving in 1 run.

"I play this game for myself and my family, but of course it's always nice when we can win," said Walker.
