CARDINALS BACK IN LEAGUE LEAD ‘ Cards Win Seven Os 10 Road Games To Stay In Top Place i Now York, May 22 (U.R) -St, Louis, swaggering Cardinals stopped off at Pittsburgh for JuAl one more tilt today before going home to make a 23-game stand in do- , sense of their National league leadership. j The Cardinals successfully with1 ' stixid all onslaughts for the lead ' j by winning seven of their 11) road i games. The contest with the Piri ates today is not a scheduled one lande is being played to make up » a game postponed because of cold’ < I weather. ' j However, it will give the New ’ I York Giants a chance to regain the '■ lean held only one day against the > Cards. If Pittsburgh whips St. i Louis and New York licks Philadelphia, the Giants will be, out in front by a half game, just where they were before Paul Dean pitch- ' ed the Cards to a 4 to 2 victory I yesterday and snapped the Giants winning streak at nine straight. With a 23-gaine home stand in front of them, the Cardinals should build up a better lead than the half game they now boast, but it is not going to be easy. In their next eight games St. Ixinis faces the Pirates who have to he regarded as challengers from their third place position, five times and the recently strengthened Chicago Cubs three times. With their victory yesterday the Cardinals hold a 3-1 advantage over the Giants in games played this season. A six-run scoring hurst in the ninth gave the Pirates a 7 to 4 decision over the Phillies and maintained their third place position just three games out of the lead. The Chicago Cubs overtook fourth position again by nailing the Brooklyn Dodgers. 4 to 0. RoyHenshaw allowed but seven hits in scoring the shutout. Boston's Bees triumphed 3 to 2 over the Cincinnati Reds as a result of Bill Urbanski's ninth inning double which broke adeadlock and sent the winning run home. In the American league, the Detroit Tigers made it two straight over the leading New York Yankees. 10 to 9. The Tigers came from behind twice and overcame the Yanks in the ninth. A virtual tie existed between the Yanks and the Boston Red Sox, whon won 6 to 2 from the St. Louis Browns. Jimmy Foxx hit bls' 10th homer. The Washington Senators halted a ninth inning rally and hand-! ed the Cleveland Indians their | fourth straight defeat, 7 tt> 4 Appling's single after three men had walked in the 14th broke up I a pitchers' battle and gave the, I Chicago White Sox a 3 to 2 mar- ‘ j gin over the Philadelphia Athletics.! . Whitehead came in with the tally j [ on Appling's hit and was the win-1 j ning pitcher. — Yesterday's hero: Paul Dean, St. | Louis Card pitcher, who snapped I the Giants' nine-game winning streak and hurled his club back into the National league lead.
