Best Answer

In the 1939 World Series, the New York Yankees swept the Cincinnati Reds in four straight games to capture the World Championship. Game four of the Series was played in Cincinnati with the Yankees winning 7-4 in 10 innings, pushing across 3 runs in the top of the 10th. Winning pitcher was reliever Johnny Murphy. It was Murphy's only appearance in the Series and he pitched 3 1/3 inning, gave up 5 hits, one run, struck out 2 and had no walks. The 30 year old had lead the American League in saves that season with 19, while appearing in 38 games for the Yankees, all in relief. The losing pitcher, by the way, was Reds ace, Bucky Walters, who came into the game in relief in the 8th inning to suffer his 2nd loss of the Series.
