After a pair of singles in the second, New York took the lead on a two-run, two-base throwing error by Melvin James. That, however, was all they could muster, as they stranded 11 base runners during the game, including leaving the bases loaded with one out in the fourth. Art Geisel got St. Louis on the board with an RBI double in the 7th, making it 2-1. Then, after New York again left the bases loaded in the 7th, St. Louis took the lead in the 8th. An RBI single by Wilfredo Souza, RBI ground out by Luke Mitchell, and RBI single by Art Geisel did the damage. Joe Washburn and Al Giordano held the lead for St. Louis, giving them a 1-0 lead in the series.

Both teams put up their runs in the fourth, the Red Birds first on two-run blast by Luke Mitchell, and then New York on a game-tying two-run shot by Don Alperman. In the 7th, St. Louis went to Amos McMillan, who--after retiring the first two batters he faced--gave up three consecutive singles to Jose, Schultz, and Roy Hobbs to give New York a 3-2 lead. The Red Birds went in order in the 8th and 9th, as the Ski-Ballers tied the series at one.

After picking up two runs in the first, George Kane pushed the lead to four with a two-run blast in the second.

With their backs to the wall, St. Louis sent ace Jake Riss against veteran lefty Sonny MacDonald. After Riss escaped a jam in the first, St. Louis got a gift run on an error by Roy Hobbs. That lead quickly evaporated as New York put together two hits and a passed ball to tie the game in the second. In the fourth, Crash Davis went deep with a man on to put New York up 4-1. MacDonald escaped a jam in the fifth, and the shutdown the St. Louis offense the rest of the way. He allowed just a run on five hits while striking out twelve, and put the exclamation point on his performance in the eighth, hitting a solo blast against Amos McMillan. The win sent the Ski-Ballers to the BoHol's first World Series.
