DOG ASIDE:
The year was 1955 and the Yankees were coming off the past year where they won more games during the season (103) than they had won in any of the previous 5 years….in which they won 5 consecutive World Series…..and yet they lost the American League by 6 games to the Cleveland Indians…..who broke the MLB record for most games won in a season (111)…..which had been held since 1927 by the NY Yankees. Their total focus was on regaining the championship of the American League by beating the Indians….and going back to the World Series after a one year absence. The won the American League by 3 games over the Cleveland Indians.
