A 1-1 ballgame going into the 4th turned into a 5-1 Yankees lead thanks to 3 singles and a costly Twins error. The Yankees tacked on 1 more in the 6th due to 2 more Twins errors.

Gene Hallenbeck had to make the call whether or not to send players to Watervliet High School to play the second regular season meeting between the Whiz Kids and the Cubs. He was hesitant to cancel, but the combo of the dirty air and an iffy weather forecast helped Gene make the right call. The game was ca...
