1-hitter by Marv
Grissom. Mayor Hubert Humphrey throws
out the first pitch before a crowd of 6,755 for the home opener. The only hit off Grissom was an infield
dribbler by Al Roberge with 1 out in the 8th inning. Bob Beebe in the Minneapolis
Tribune called it, "As fluky a base hit as
Nicollet Park has seen in its 51 years of existence." The ball rolled down the third-base line in
foul territory when it hit a "hammock of grass" and "skittered
into fair territory." |

LP-Neal Saulia or
Earl McGowan. HR-Westrum. (The game account says Saulia was the
losiing pitcher, but McGowan is listed as the losing pitcher in the box
score. Saulia gave up single to Ira
Hutchinson and walked Augie Bergamo.
McGowan relieved and struck out the next two batters before giving up
a run-scoring double to Mike Natasin, Natasin's fourth double of the game, to
drive in pinch-runner Roy Broome from second with the winning run. The official scorer may have charged the
loss to McGowan; Saulia's official record for the Millers for 1947 shows no
decisions.) |

Game called to allow

"Tookie" Gilbert. The
18-year-old Gilbert, brother of Charlie Gilbert of the Philadelphia Phillies
and son of former major leaguer Larry Gilbert, manager of the Nashville
Volunteers of the Southern Association, was signed to a $50,000 bonus by the
New York Giants. All bidding clubs
placed their names in a hat, and Gilbert’s mom drew the Giants. |

LP-Hardy. Perfect game for Carl
DeRose. DeRose, a native of Milaca, Minnesota, pitches the first
perfect game in American Association history, throwing 93 pitches and
striking out Barna, who was hitting for Gerkin, to end the game. DeRose, who had a "dead arm," was
making his first appearance in 3 weeks, and had asked manager Bill Meyer for
a last chance to pitch. After the
game, DeRose couldn't lift his arm to shake hands. He said from the third inning on, his arm
hurt so much he had tears streaming down his face, but he refused Meyer's
offer to lift him. The Blues left on a
road trip after the game without DeRose, who will undergo surgery. Cliff Mapes homered, and Ed Stewart had 2
triples to provide Kansas City with its runs. |
