World Series Game Five Victory for Buxton and Los Angeles
The Los Angeles Angels moved to within one game of the world championship today, downing the visiting New York Yankees at Wrigley Field by a score of 5-2. Angels right-hander Ralph Buxton was named player of the game after a strong outing in which he threw 9 innings of 4-hit ball. The win gives the Angels a 3-2 advantage in the best-of-seven World Series.

Buxton was effective for Los Angeles, seldom allowing the Yankees to square up a pitch. The right-hander tossed 103 pitches over 9 innings. He limited New York to just 2 runs on 4 hits.

"I just trusted my stuff," said Buxton.

Game 6 is set to be played tomorrow at Wrigley Field. Slated to start are Waite Hoyt for New York and Joe A Berry for Los Angeles.
