Classic Baseball Radio

Go West, Young Man, Chicago White Sox at Los Angeles Dodgers, October 8, 1959


Listen Later

Two years after the Dodgers and the Giants moved to California to establish Major League Baseball on the West Coast, the Dodgers found themselves in the World Series.

Following three games in the Los Angeles Colosseum, the Series returns to Cominsky Park with the Dodgers ahead 3-2.

Larry Sherry had already won a game, saved two others, and is now on the mound in Game Six. The White Sox Early Wynn also returns as a starter, but on short rest of only two days, the White Sox are taking a gamble – a curious turn of phrase, as this is the first World Series for the White Sox since the Black Sox Scandal of 1917.

Mel Allen and By Saam will talk you through the plays in a must-win game for the White Sox.
