    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.

  • To Hear Her Late Father Rube Walker's Voice
    One woman’s ‘journey’ to hear her late father Rube Walker’s voice By George Castle, CBM Historian Posted Friday, August 2, 2013 The relationship between father and daughter is special. More importantly, it’s crucial and necessary. Sever that bond in any way, and there are long-term negative consequences. Leigh Ann Young lost her relationship with her father, Verlon Walker, the Cubs’ pitch- ing coach, at age 3 when he died of chronic myeloid leukemia at 42 in March 1971. She spent decades trying to play catch-up ball in making up for this heartbreaking loss. In some ways, she succeeded, establishing her own family and career. Young still keenly feels the void in her life in other respects. But it did not stop her from trying to reestablish a special connection, to craft a new relationship with her father in a kind of spiritual form. Walker is on a “journey” to hear her fa- ther’s voice. And with its considerable ar- Walker (named after his grandfather), Dennis, chive of vintage baseball audio and rela- Leigh Ann and Christopher Young tionships with former Cubs players and of- ficials, the Chicago Baseball Museum is try- ing to help her, even if the quest might be a million-to-one shot. “I have a few reel-to reel-films of him and my mom on vacation before I was born,” said Young. “But no sound. In the video age, I can’t believe that. When I started having chil- dren, I would watch them with their father and just think -- the sound of a father’s voice.
