Mickey Mantle scored the game's first run and drove in two more with a second inning two-run homer and Bob Shawkey did the rest as the Yankees blanked the Cardinals 3-0 to win Game Seven and earn their second straight Eternal Championship. Bob Shawkey (4-1) threw eight shutout innings and Mariano Rivera slammed the door for his sixth playoff save. Mort Cooper (2-2) took the loss for St. Louis but he settled down and only allowed two earned runs over seven and one-third innings pitched.
Mantle was named the Eternal Series MVP after hitting .478 with six runs, five RBI, eight walks, a triple, three home runs, and three outstanding catches in center field. If you missed the game live, you can watch the replay right here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=m_aa5uVB-T0&t=11s
