31 game winner Don Kaiser gives up a 2 out, 3 run home run to Roy Sievers, in the 5^th inning. A mistake you can’t make when Curt Simmons is pitching. The Dodgers take the opener 4-1. A World Series record 92,641 people attended game 1 at the LA Memorial Coliseum.

Vic Wertz, pinching hitting in the seventh inning, hit a go ahead solo shot, to give Baltimore the 3-2 lead. Dick Brodowski eight strong innings, out duelling Masaaki Koyama, as the Orioles tie the series with the 3-2 win.

Wertz

Home Runs by Charlie Maxwell and Bobby Hoffman propel the Dodgers to a 6-2 win in game 3. LA starter Robin Roberts allowed just 5 hits.

A Joe Adcock 3 run shot gives Baltimore the early lead. The Orioles eventually go up 7-0, which is needed, as Ernie Banks hits 2 home runs late. It’s not enough though, and Baltimore ties the series with the 7-5 victory.

The teams combined for 7 hits, in a wonderfully played game 5. The most important hit came off the bat of seldom used SS Don Buddin, who in the bottom of the ninth, with 2 out, doubled home Jerry Kindall. The Orioles walk off the Dodgers with a 2-1 win and are just one game away from ending the defending champs run.

Buddin

The Dodgers will not go quietly into that dark night. They score 5 times in 3 innings. The lead is too big for the Orioles to overcome, and again, the World Series will be decided by a seventh game.

GAME 7

Two of baseballs best pitchers just put on a show for the ages. Don Kaiser and Curt Simmons each pitched about as good a game as anyone has ever pitched.

In the top of the 1^st, the Orioles got 2 hits on Simmons, but a strike out of Roy McMillan ended any sort of rally.

Neither team was able to get more then 1 runner on in any inning for the next 8 and a half innings. There were no home runs, so game 7 of the World Series headed to extra innings, tied at 0.

Ernie Banks hit a 1 out double in the tenth, but he’s stranded on third when Kaiser, still pitching, got Spider Jorgensen to fly out.

Joe Adcock reached third base in the 11^th, but Curt Simmons, still pitching stranded him striking out back to back hitters.

Kaiser and Simmons are both replaced after 11 amazing innings. The bullpen’s did not provide a let up…until……….

Three outs later, the season was over. What a World Series. What pitching performances. All hail the new Champions!
