But in 15 games each team played since then, the Indians have hammered out 13 victories against six for the Yanks, and have zoom ed right into the challenger’s position eight games out of first place. Yesterday, the Indians scored a 6-5 victory over the Boston Red Sox while the Yankees were dropping their second straight game to the St. Louis Browns. 5-4. The Indians blasted Lefty Grove from the mound in the third as Hal Trosky hit his 25th homer of the season with one man aboard. The Detroit Tigers walloped the Philadelphia Athletics In a twin bill. 8-0 and 9-8 to take third place from Boston. Washington stopped the Chicago White Sox winning streak at eight straight games with a 6-5 win. Carl Hubbell’s 13th victory of the year—scored over Dizzy Dean i —gave the New York Giants a 2-1 ! triumph over the St. Louis Card-1 inals in the National league. All three runs were homers. Gus Mancuso homered for the Giants In the fifth and Pepper Martin for the Cards in the sixth. Dick Bartell's circuit clout broke the tie in the tenth.
