1957 Season Opener
Frank Sullivan was in midseason form on Opening Day, tossing a complete game shutout against the Orioles. Sullivan held Baltimore to four hits, issued no walks, and struck out three as he bested Billy Loes. The O’s right-hander worked 8 ⅔ innings, yielding two runs on six hits and no walks.
Red Sox leadoff hitter Jimmy Piersall was responsible for the game’s only scoring, hitting a two-run single off Loes in the top of the eighth inning.
