The Unofficial 1927 New York Yankees Home Page New York then won two of the next three games, with one game ending in a tie, to sweep the series and make an early statement as Ruth hit his first home run of the season in the finale. An amazingly balanced team, New York was the fourth team in league history to have both the highest batting average and the lowest earned run average in the same season. After two more games went by without a home run, the Yankees breaking the American League record with their 106th victory of the season on September 24, Ruth was faced with having to hit four in the final four games for a new record, a tall order for anyone, even him. www.angelfire.com /pa/1927   (4294 words)

Sure, they win a 12-1 ball game, but other than that one game, their offense seems to be average. www.thesportsopinions.com /ny_yankees.htm   (2337 words)
