The Yankees won the game 6-3 after Bill Dietrich got the victory for the Sox in Game 1. 1954: Jack Harshman set a club record with 16 strikeouts in the White Sox 5-2 win at Boston. Harshman gave up two runs on five hits and five walks in improving to 7-4. Harshman, a lefty, broke the record previously held by Ed Cicotte (Aug. 26, 1914), Jim Scott (June 22, 1913) and Ed Walsh (Aug. 11, 1910 and Oct. 2, 1908).
