tera to win J 4 games straight and 24 in the season, led the Giant victory margin. As Hubbell goes, so go the Giants, and Hubbell on Frij day last and ngain yesterday was i going good. Today the Giants meet the Pittsburgh Pirates, fourth-place National league team. The New York team has 13 games left to play, two against the Pittsburgh team and > the other 11 against second-divis-ion clubs. Five of those 11 games i are against the Brooklyn Dodgers, | however, and the Dodgers have been bad medicine for the Giants }lever since that fata! day when Bill 51 Terry, Giant manager, made The r sad mistake of asking whether the IXalgers still were in the league. ’> With Hubbell on the mound, the Giants are riding high with a 4 l » 2 ' | game lead over the Cardinals, their ’ j closest rivals, and a six-game marI gin over the Cubs. Schedules fav--lor their cause, for the Cubs and 1 Cardinals still have six games to play against each other six games '. in which they may play each other ■ j right out of pennant chances w"iile ) the Giants profit. Hubbell took the mound in the l fifth inning yesterday when the Giants were leading by a 6-4 mar- ; gin. due to a six-run rally by the I New York team in the third The I screw-ball artist allowed one run ( a homer by pitcher Ed Heusser ' ■ —and six hits in the five innings | l and his team wound up with a final 1 score of 7-5. The Cardinal-Giant ' game was significant on another I score besides the extra, unneeded demonstration of Hubbell's ability. • in the sixth inning, two Cardinals indulged in fratricidal warfare, a possible indication that the St. 1 Louis team is cracking under the | strain of the close pennant fight. Or it may be only one of ihose wild outbursts of horse play which fans have come to expect from.the “Gas House gang." At any event. Heusser and Joe Medwick first exchanged words an dthen blows over Medwick's poor throw to the plate. The Giants benefited from yesterday's efforts of the Dodgers, for I the Brooklyn team took a close one. 2-1, from the Cubs. Van Lingle Mungo chalked up his 15th victory of the year while his battery mate. Babe Phelps, scored the winning run in the ninth with a single after two were out. At Boston, Paul Derringer blanked the Bees. 6-0. hanging up his 19th victory and reinforcing the Cincinnati Reds' position at the top of the second division. The lowly Phillies took two more on the chin, the Pittsburgh Pirates winning a doubleheader by 11-4 and 6-5. In the American league, two pitchers scored their 21st victories of the year. Tommy Bridges won a close one when he shut out the Boston Red Sox, 1-0. at Detroit. The Washington Senators lost two games to the Chicago White Sox. increasing the Sox lead for second place to games and dropping she Senators into a thirdj place tie with the Detroit Tigers. I The Sox took the opening game in I the 10th inning. 5-4. and in the j nightcap, Vernon Kennedy won his i 21st game and gave the Chicago team a 11-3 victory. Yesterday's hero: Carl Hubbell, of the New York Giants, who scored his 14th straight victory and his 24th triumph of the season.
