DEAN PITCHES CUBS VICTORY J AGAINST BEES Marks Up Fourth Straight Triumph Os Season Thursday • I New York. June 23 <U R> IMaity Dean wasn't talking through hla 1 ? hat when he |M>ppe<i off: Let mipitch more often, I'm tired of be i Inga Sunday pitcher.' The Cuba' front office took him ' at hla word and gave Gabby Hartnett permission to start him any time he deemed Dean was ready Hartnett sent Dean to the war* 1 yesterday with only three days of reat. and Dizzy was superb. He pitched the Cubs to a 7-1 triumph over the Hees tlley, stop picking I spots for Dizzy, the fans yelled). i Dean has four straight triumphs, two over the Bees and one each over the Dodgers and Pirate*. He ’ now has qualified to pitch against | I a flrat division club but he can't j until Hartnett get* permission from the front office. Ditzy. game guy that he Is. probably will have to j . stalk in and demand that they let 1 I him pitch against the up|»-r crust. ' If there an- any better pitchers in the National league than Dean. ■ they'll have to prove It In compel- > ; tition. He'* pitched four games >and allowed a measly three run*. I 1 In his latest triumph he let the j Bees down with six hit* and had them on his hip all the way. They 1 ' say he has only a glove and a pray- i er. but that seems to be the fad this season. 1-ook at Red Ruffing, j whose arm is so sore he can't | throw a curve ball. But the front office doesn't send word to Joi McCarthy not to pitch Ruffing. Dean's old teammate*, the Cardinals. hammered an 11-5 triumph over the Phillies and cut the Reds" I National league lead to five game*. St. l-oui* slugged out 15 hits with Morton Cooper getting "‘3 for 3" j In addition to pitching live shutout innings as a relief man. Pittsburgh blew a 6-0 lead but ' finally came on to beat the Giant*. 8-7. In the rai nand twilight. Go- ' ing into the ninth trailing by two I runs, the Pirates put on a rally. I Joe Bowman, a relief pitcher, made the winning single in the mud- . spattered setting. The Yankees beat the White Sox. 6-1. Never was the world | champions' defense more emphasized. Tommy Henrich leaped high Ito rob Mike Kreevich of a homer with one man on base. Joe Dii Maggio sprinted across the greensward and stole a triple from Gerald Walker with two men on. Rookie Atley Donald, with such support, moved on to hf* eighth I straight victory. Jack Wilson finally pitched gnod ball, and the Red Sox beat the Browns. 7-3. Wilson allowed only ' six hits. Jimmy Foxx got three i hits, driving In two runs. The Athletics came from behind jto trim the Tigers. 6-5. Chubby i Dean drove In the winning run in , the ninth with a sacrifice fly to offset three Detroit homer* by MeCosky. Averill #nd Fox Washington slugged out an 8-5 triumph over Cleveland. Harry Kelley went the route although . tapped for 14 hits, including hornj er* by Keltner and Trosky.
