Monarchs Beaten By Black Yankees, 4-1
New York turned a good performance from starting pitcher Ron Guidry into a 4-1 triumph over the Kansas City Monarchs at Muehlebach Field 1923-1941. The winning pitcher was Guidry, now 3-1. He tossed 7 innings of 4-hit ball, while walking 1 and fanning 8. The loss drops Kansas City to 16-16.

Who knows how it might've ended, had it not been for Mickey Mantle? The New York center fielder had a run-scoring double in the top of the fifth inning to put the Black Yankees on top, 2-0. For the game, Mantle had 1 double and 1 single in 3 at-bats.

Mantle expressed little emotion after the game. "Every game we win now," he said, "is one less win we'll need to get in the end."
