Grand River scored 2 runs in the bottom of the 7th inning. The crucial at-bat was provided by Mantle who made the crowd come alive when he cracked a two-run shot (his 31st of the season). Sal Maglie was perfect in relief and gained credit for his 4th save. Lefty Grove(7-16) went 7 innings allowing 2 runs for the win. The loss was charged to Luis Tiant(3-4) in relief. He was a hard-luck loser as he did not allow an earned run in his 2 innings of work. 'He gutted it out' Buck Guthrie said of Grove. 'I was very impressed by his tenacity.' |
