After being acquired by the New York Yankees in June 1951, the 6-year major league veteran complied a 8-4 record by starting 8 games and with 15 relief appearances. Although, Kuzava appeared only once in both the '51 World Series and '52 WS, he collected a save in each appearance. Stengel sent the big 6-2, 200-pounder into Game 6 of the '51 WS with the bases loaded and no outs, Yankees leading 4-1. He got the first two New York Giants' batters out on two sacrifice flies and got the last out on a line out to Hank Bauer, who made a diving catch, and the Yankees won the championship again. In Game 7 of the '52 World Series , Stengel brought in Kuzava again with the bases loaded, one out. Kuzava got Duke Snider on a pop-up to third. Then, Jackie Robinson hit a Texas-League double to right that scored 3 Dodger runs. Kuzava then proceeded to hold the Dodgers scoreless in the 8th and 9th innings and the Yankees collected another World Series' ring. =============================================== New York Yankees Baseball History ===============================================
