Braves Take Series; Burdette Winner, 5-0

The Milwaukee Braves emerged victors in the 1957 World Series yesterday by defeating the New York Yankees 5 to 0 under the shutout pitching of Lew Burdette.

The Braves won their fourth game of the series in an explosive third inning, when they scored four runs. With one out, Bob Hazle singled to left, followed with another single by Johnny Logan. Both Logan and Hazle then scored on a double by Eddie Mathews. Mathews was followed by Hank Aaron, who reached first on a hit to center; the two Braves, Aaron and Mathews, strengthened the Braves' margin when they crossed the plate on a Texas League single by Wes Covington.

The fifth run came in the eighth inning on a homer by Del Crandall.
