On September 26, 1954, the A’s beat the New York Yankees 8-6, at Yankee Stadium. Art Ditmar won for Philadelphia – his first major league victory. Tommy Byrne suffered the loss. In that game Casey Stengel played Mickey Mantle at shortstop, Yogi Berra at third base, and Bill Skowron at second base, in a game that had no meaning in the pennant race since the Indians had already clinched the American League pennant. In 1955, the A’s moved to Kansas City.
