It was a historic week 13 with the second pitcher in history reaching a milestone win number, a record tieing performance, and the end to an undefeated season.
Let's begin first in Chicago where the where after 11 straight wins the Vikings fell 6-2 to the Bears.
Bill Sweeney held the Vikings to 2 runs on 9 hits as the Bears did what no other team could do this season.
Ed Bowie was the offensive hero for the Bears going 2-4 with a pair of RBI.
He may be 41 years old, but
Milt Foss gave Titan fans another memory with a 5-4 win over the Buccaneers to become just the second pitcher in history to win 100 games. With the game tied in the bottom of the ninth Milt Foss failed to sacrifice over
Danny Bassett, who singled to leadoff the inning, but Bassett advanced to second anyway on a passed ball, and came home to score the winning run when
George Shoch hit a walk-off single.
That wasn’t the only history being made in Tennessee though, as earlier in the game
Cletus Boyar hit his record tieing 5th home run this season, and is now tied with
Buck Ewing atop the leaderboard.
In the NBC East there were two dominant performances from young hurlers this week.
Hardie Henderson pitched a 5 hit shutout as the Eagles won 2-0 over the Falcons, while
Al Atkinson pitched a 3 hitter in the Giants 5-1 win over the Cowboys.
