The story on this card
Card 139 in the 1964 Topps World Series subset recalls Game 4 of the 1963 Fall Classic at Dodger Stadium between the Los Angeles Dodgers and New York Yankees. With aces Whitey Ford and Sandy Koufax locked in a duel, Frank Howard broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fifth with a home run into the second deck. Mickey Mantle tied it with a seventh-inning home run, but Los Angeles answered when Jim Gilliam's grounder got away from first baseman Joe Pepitone after Clete Boyer's throw, sending Gilliam to third; he scored moments later on a Willie Davis sacrifice fly. Koufax went the distance for a 2-1 win, completing a four-game sweep and the Dodgers' third World Series title. The card is part of Topps' second series for 1964.
