Miley BB CD 1960 Yankees-Indians (6/26) Game 2
Called by Mel Allen and Phil Rizzuto

Roger Maris’ homers in 5th and 8th both tie the game , but his error in the 11th gives the visitors a split in the doubleheader.  Joined in progress with NY trailing 4-0 in top of 2nd inning, but rest of this exciting game is complete.
