This is for an original ticket stub from the July 4 1948
baseball game played between the New York Yankees and Washington Senators at
Yankee Stadium in the Bronx. Early Wynn would pitch the entire eight innings
for the Senators but would end up taking the loss. Phil Rizzuto would supply
most of the Yankees offense with a two run single in the bottom of the sixth
scoring Johnny Lindell and Snuffy Stirnweiss and then walking in the eighth
before being doubled to third by Tommy Henrich and scoring on a sacrifice fly
by Yogi Berra for a 6-5 lead which would be held down by Joe Page with his 12th
save of the year. Joe DiMaggio would single in the fifth inning for his 1,745th
career hit of 2,214. Yogi Berra’s sacrifice fly RBI in the eighth would be RBI number
100 of his career. The stub has some spotting on the back but displays nice on
the front. A ton of statistical history in just a single Yankee stub. A must
have for any ticket collector.
