Rudy York slammed 3 homeruns and had 4 RBI as the Detroit Tigers defeated the
Boston Red Sox by the score of 10 to 7 at Fenway Park.
York propelled Detroit to victory. He cleared the fences for a two-run home
run in the 4th inning, lofted a solo-blast 'downtown' in the 6th inning and
blasted a solo shot in the 7th inning. Detroit dominated offensively as they
scored in 6 different innings.
Tommy Bridges(3-3) went 7 innings allowing 6 runs for the win. Lefty
Grove(5-4) ended up with the loss. He was touched for 4 homeruns in his 8
innings of work.
York was jubilant after the game 'Let me see a box-score' he joked, 'I want to
see how that game looks on paper.'
