    Postseason Recaps, Line Scores, Stats & Records World Champions 1955 World Champions For the Brooklyn Dodgers, the 1955 World Series was not just a chance to win a championship, but an opportunity to avenge five previous World Series failures at the hands of their chief rivals, the New York Yankees. Even with their ace Don Newcombe on the mound, the Dodgers seemed to be doomed from the start, as three Yankee home runs set back Newcombe and the rest of the team in their opening 6-5 loss. Game 2 had the same result, as New York's southpaw Tommy Byrne held Brooklyn to five hits in a 4-2 victory. With the Series heading back to Brooklyn, Johnny Podres was given the start for Game 3. The Dodger lefty stymied the Yankees' offense over the first seven innings by allowing one run on four hits en route to an 8-3 victory. Podres gave the Dodger faithful a hint as to what lay ahead in the series with his complete-game, six-strikeout performance. Game 4 at Ebbets Field turned out to be an all-out slugfest. After falling behind early, 3-1, the Dodgers used the long ball to knot up the series. Future Hall of Famers Roy Campanella and Duke Snider each homered and Gil Hodges collected three of the club’s 14 hits, including a home run in the 8-5 triumph. Snider's third and fourth home runs of the Series provided the support needed for rookie Roger Craig and the Dodgers took Game 5 by a score of 5-3.

Back Posted: July 12. 2007 12:00AM Bond at the ball field West Coast college teammates reunited in Utica UTICA — When college baseball players graduate, they often hope to play again with former teammates in the majors some day. Two teammates at Cal State Northridge probably never thought they would be playing together again in Utica, nearly 2,750 miles from their college home. "It's really cool getting to play with Paul (Wilson) on my team again," said Alex Bardeguez, a utility player for the Oneida Barge Bucs of the New York State League. "He's a great player." Bardeguez were teammates on the 2006 Cal State Northridge Matadors. It was Wilson's senior season and Bardeguez's junior season. While both players are now playing in the NYSL, they have taken very different paths in their playing career. Bardeguez, a Long Island native, began his college career at Villanova University, but transferred to Northridge after his junior season. He said he made the move because Northridge, in the Big West Conference, had more quality baseball than the Big East. Coaches have liked Bardeguez's skills as a utility player, as he has played first, second and third base as well as both corner outfield positions. His skills aren't limited to the baseball diamond. He was on both the Big East and Big West All-Academic teams while earning a degree in marketing.
