Yankees Suffer Their
First Defeat
New York, Apr, 16.
The Boston Red Sox, who have been tabbed by Carey Stengel as the team his Now York Yankees should fear most, in the American League_Pennant_chase, started living up to that tag today by handing the Yankees their first defeat of the season, 3.1.
Ex-Yankee Jackie Jensen set the pace for the win over his old mates when he crashed a two-run homer in the first inning and right-hander Dick Sisler took it from there, holding the AL champions to seven hita' over the nine-inning route.
