April 21 New York Yankees 2 DiMaggio 0-2 2 Walks Washington Senators 1 Vernon 1-4 Strikeout Haefner (WAS) goes the full 9 innings, allows only 3 hits, 2 Walks and 1 earned run. The Yankees score in the top of the 9th Inning when Stirnweiss reached on an error by Christman at short then scored on a double by Keller.
The Yankees open the season with a series sweep. The New York bats were solid, but Washington hit only .141 for the series. The Yankees starters were also good. Reynolds, Lopat and Raschi look to be a tough top three. Mickey Haefner was really good for the Senators in the last game but was the victim of hard-luck in the final inning that resulted in an unearned run and a tough loss.
