1955 White Sox-Yankees 5/18 Called by Bob Elson and Marty Marion Vern Stephens comes off bench for injured Minnie Minoso (hit in head in the first inning) and hits 2 homers to keep Sox in the game, but Mickey Mantle’s two-out, grand slam in the 7th decides the thriller; Mayor Richard Daley is a guest in the 5th.
