World Series - Game One - Red Sox

Well, the 1946 Red Sox got off to a good start winning game one 4-2 behind another strong start from Mickey Harris (7 IP, 3 H, 1 BB, 2 ER, 5 K). Most imporantly, the Red Sox pitching staff kept Roger Maris hitless in 4 plate appearences.

The Red Sox bullpen worked 2 IP of scoreless, hitless relief.

The offensive catalysts were Wally Moses, Johnny Pesky, Dom DiMaggio (again, the best of the DiMaggio brother as evidenced by him being the last DiMaggio standing. Apologies to Vince who really wasn't eligible in this contest) and Bobby Doerr.

Game 2 features Whitey Ford against Boo Ferris.

Yeah, I think Maris is the key, he's got to hit for the Yankees to win, even with a solid lineup around him.

Agreed. Maris has been a one man wrecking crew.

There are obviously other good players in that line-up, but Maris is the best thus far.

That Mickey Mantle fella is due for a breakout...I hope no time soon.
