1950 Yankees edge 1935 Tigers 84-78 in high scoring series!!!
Despite being outscored by 24 runs on the season Casey Stengel's 1950 Yankees got by Mickey Cochrane's 1935 Tigers in a close race. You would expect it to be close in an 8-9 matchup, and it was. The Yankees will next take on the 1976 Reds, looking to avenge the sweep that the Reds had against the 1976 Yankee team in the world series that season.
The Tigers won 6 in a row and on Sep 9th they were just one game out, but they lost 10 of the final 17 games to finish 4 games back.
Detroit won the OPS battle, .769 to .742.
Tommy Byrne at .380/.410/.519 in 79 AB. Wakefield a big pinch hitter at .366 in 71 AB. Hopp HUGE with 39 RBIs in just 162 AB. He walked 50 times too. Real life MVP Rizzuto hit .300 and scored 100 runs. Yogi at 29-104. DiMaggio at 33-110. Mize hit just .228, but with 21 HRs and 49 RBIs in 267 AB.
MONSTER year for Greenberg with 95 XBH and 146 RBIs. Gehringer big with 105 runs and 102 RBIs. Pete Fox scored 110 runs. Cochrane hit .357 and scored 70 runs in 120 games. Goslin with 93 RBIs. Rogell with 82 runs and 70 RBIs.
Raschi (17-9, 3.11) and Lopat (18-9, 3.82) led the way for a team with a staff ERA of 4.55. Byrne (9-16, 6.75) was dreadful with 144 walks.
Schoolboy Rowe (21-10 3.79) led the staff and also hit .330 with 7 HRs and 20 RBIs. Bridges (6-18, 4.81) killed them.
Yankees fielding helped them win as they allowed 10 fewer unearned runs than Detroit.
