The next hitter lined a single to right. Stanky still favouring his Healing broken ankle was stopped at third. He meant the tying run. He never got to score and his team lost by the margin of one run. Earl Torgeson Fleet first baseman of the braves was the hitting Star of the series smacking the Apple for a percentage of .389.
