May 22 30,813 fans watched an exciting game at Forbes Field. The New York AL Yankees ended a long winless drought and topped the Pittsburgh Pirates by the slimmest of margins, 3 to 2. New York AL took the lead for good in the 5th inning scoring a single run. Pittsburgh made it exciting in the 9th, but they were unable to push the needed runs across. The win went to Bob Turley(9-1) who allowed 2 runs in 8 innings. Ryne Duren earned his 11th save. The losing pitcher was Hoyt Wilhelm(3-2). 'Some losses are harder to take than others' Pittsburgh's manager lamented after the game. 'This was one of them.'
