Twins Squeeze By Chicago (N), 7-6
The Minnesota Twins weathered a fine game by Chicago (N) designated hitter Hank Greenberg to upend the Cubs, 7-6, at Metropolitan Stadium. Greenberg was 3-5 with a home run, a double, and a walk. He scored 2 times and drove in 2. The win belonged to Dom Zanni in relief. His record improves to 1-0. Stan Wall took the loss for Chicago (N). Chicago (N) drops to 15-11.

The decisive blow was delivered by Rudy York in the bottom of the 11th when he hit a run-scoring double off 32-year old left-handed pitcher Stan Wall to win the game for Minnesota. The home crowd went nuts.

"That was your kind of game, if you like high drama," said Twins manager Dan Hornbaker.
