Hughson Masters New York in Complete Game Win
The 1946 season is off to a good start for the Philadelphia Athletics. The hometown Athletics knocked off the New York Yankees, 3-1, at Shibe Park. Philadelphia pitcher Tex Hughson paced his team to the win.

Hughson, a native of Buda, Texas, was dealing all game. He kept New York hitters off-balance, while giving the Athletics 9 quality innings. Hughson threw 122 pitches, allowing 6 hits and striking out 6.

"We made a couple of mistakes," said New York skipper Joe McCarthy, "and it cost us."
