Big Day for Munson as Black Yankees Down Red Sox, 15-7
The 15-7 New York win over Memphis was due in large part to Thurman Munson. The Black Yankees catcher was 2-3 with a home run, a double, and a walk, while scoring 3 and driving in 4. With the win, New York pushed its record to 72-57.

The Black Yankees got a big hit from designated hitter Mickey Mantle. Facing Memphis pitcher Armando Benitez in the top of the seventh, Mantle pounded a bases-clearing double to right-center. His 21st double of the season put the Black Yankees ahead, 13-4.

"Nice to tuck this win away," said Mantle.
