The Yankees, despite not having any players with 100 RBI won their fourth straight pennant edging out the Cleveland Indians by a slim two game margin with a record of 95-59. In the World Series the Yankees faced the Brooklyn Dodgers once again, and the series would go the full seven games. The Yankees appeared dead after losing Game 5 in the 11th inning to win the series; Yanks would have to win two games in a hostile Ebbets Field. The Yanks would even the series in Game 6 over coming two homers by Duke Snider to win 3-2. In Game 7 Mickey Mantle's Home Run in the sixth put the Yankees ahead to stay, as Bob Kuzava retired the last eight batters to preserve the victory and the Yanks fourth straight World Series title.
