New York did all the necessary damage in the 8th inning when they tallied 5 runs on 5 hits. The crucial at-bat was provided by Red Schoendienst who came through for the home fans when he lifted one out of the park for a two run home run (his 2nd of the season). New York out-hit Chicago for the game, 7 hits to 2. The win was credited to Gomez(2-2) who went 8 innings allowing no runs. Don Kaiser(0-1) was the losing pitcher. He surrendered 5 runs and 7 hits in 7 and 1/3 innings. New York now has a record of 9-11. With the loss, Chicago has a record of 3-7 lately, 4-14, worst in the league overall.
