WP- Pearson; LP- Kennedy (8-7)
Monte Pearson gave up a leadoff single in the first inning and that was the only hit he allowed as the Yankees completed a three-game sweep, 2-0. Tigers starter Vern Kennedy also pitched a complete game, but unfortunately a two-run first inning was the only offense New York needed. Pearson retired 17 of the last 18 hitters he faced as Yankees pitchers threw a complete game in each game of the series. Pearson walked two and the only man who reached base for Detroit after the fourth inning did so via error. Joe DiMaggio's triple drove in both Yankees runs. The Tigers have lost five in a row.
Pearson didn't allow a hit after the first batter of the game
