It was a slugfest in Game 2 of the World Series at Yankee Stadium today. When the dust settled it was the Brooklyn Dodgers that came out on top by a lopsided score of 17-7. Similarly to Game 1 after taking an early 3-0 lead, the Brooklyn Dodgers saw the New York Yankees come back with 4 runs in the 4th to grab a 4-3 lead. But in this game the Dodgers didn't lay down. In the 6th inning Brooklyn put 11 runs on the scoreboard. Roy Campanella hit a grand slam homerun and Pee Wee Reese added a 2-run shot in the inning. Even after pitching poorly, Don Newcombe, who was pinch hit for in the 6th, ended up with the Win for Brooklyn. Yankee ace Vic Raschi was hit hard and took the loss. The Series now moves to Brooklyn for the next 3 games tied up 1-1.

Pee Wee Reese had 4 hits and 3 RBI as the Brooklyn Dodgers ballclub
embarrassed the New York(AL) Yankees by the count of 17 to 7.
Reese provided the offensive punch. He lined a base-hit in the 3rd inning,
laced a one-base hit resulting in a run in the 6th inning, lifted one out of
the park for a two run home run in the 6th inning and doubled in the 8th
inning. Brooklyn kept the scorekeepers busy in the 6th inning when they had
11 runs on 7 hits. Brooklyn dominated offensively as they scored in 6
different innings.
Don Newcombe(1-0) picked up the victory, allowing 5 runs in 5 innings. Vic
Raschi(0-1) ended up with the loss. He got hit pretty hard, allowing 11 hits
and 2 walks in 5 and 2/3 innings.
