Why This Ticket Matters
On June 25, 1952, the St. Louis Browns defeated the New York Yankees 10–9 at Sportsman’s Park.
Satchel Paige pitched a perfect ninth inning to preserve the Browns’ one-run victory, retiring all three batters he faced. Mickey Mantle went 2-for-4 with a double for New York.
The ticket brings together two future Hall of Famers whose careers followed very different paths: Paige, a Negro Leagues legend finally pitching in the majors, and Mantle, beginning the second season of his Yankees career.
