Who Won
P: In Yankee Stadium, the Yankees, a two-game series with the Boston Red Sox (8-0, 9-5), behind the pitching of Ed Lopat and Vic Raschi. With only a week of the season left, the Yankee victories virtually bounced Boston out of the American League pennant race, gave the Yankees a 2 1/2-game lead over the fading Detroit Tigers.
P:In Athens, Ga., the University of Georgia, over highly rated Maryland, 27-7, in the major upset of college football's opening week.
P:At Belmont Park, N.Y., Greentree Stable's lightly weighted One Hitter, twice in one week, over Mrs. Charles Howard's Irish-bred Noor, four-time conqueror of Citation and holder of three world records. Also at Belmont Park, Christopher Chenery's Hill Prince, under top weight in the 81st running of the Jerome Handicap, over a field that included King Ranch's Middleground, to clinch 1950'$ top three-year-old honors.
