Brooklyn Cuts Cardinals lead To One Game . New Yrtrk. Sept. 21 - (UP) —I Even though it might not be a' bad idea, both St. Ix»uls and Brook I lyn can play the Red Sox In the' World Series. One team will have to bow out shortly and the collapse may he brought about by the third place battle between the Cubs and Braves. The Catdinale, one game ahead of the Dodgers with eight more to' go, can't expect ea«y going today as they open a aeries with the third place Cuba at Chicago. And the Dodgers, fresh from a home stand in which they won in out of 14 games, will face a brave team in Boston that In ut its peak for the season, ambitious to overtake the Cuba, who are one game ahead of them. On the basis of pax) performances. Imth the Cards and Dodgers should hreeze to victories, since St. Units has won II out of 16 games with Chicago while Brook-: lyn lias taken 14 out of 17 from Boston. But things are different now. The Cubs played brilliantly In taking two out of four games at Brooklyn thin week and the Braves were hostile to the Cards in splitting a two game series. The Dodgers. who cut the Cardinal margin to a single game yesterday with a dramatic, 5 to 3 victory over the Reds in a replay of their 19-innlng. U to 0 He, still are at a definite disadvantage. In order to catch the Cardinals they must win white St. lamin is losing and can overtake them only through two victories while the Redbird* are losing twice. Dixie Walker came through to bring the Dodgurs victory in yest terday'x game, hlttiug a three-run , homer to cap a four run rally , in the fifth. Johnny Vandertieer. who went 15 scoreless innings in , the 0 to 0 struggle, had the Dodg- , ers swinging futilely again and he was given the benefit of a 2 to! ' 0 lead in the first of the fiflh on , a two run double by Claude Cor- , bitt off surprise Dodger starter, ’ Art Herring. Dodger manager Uo Durocher, 1 working another of his famous hunches, called on Herring, who ‘ bad started only one other game this year. But Durocher remain- ! be>'ed that in that game against the Reds. Herring pitched five hitless innings before going out when \ his arm tightened. Bouncing back for their first scoring off Vandermeer hi 28% Innings. the Dodgers made all their fifth inning runs with two outs., Singles by pinch-hitter Stan Rojek, Eddie Stanky. and Joe Med wick produced one run then Walker sent a fast ball soaring over the right field screen for three more. Hank ftehriiian came In to protect Herring s lead and pitched scoreless relief bail until relieved by Hugh Casey, who allowed the Reds their final run In the ninth. The Dodgers also added another In the seventh. In the only other game, the! Tigers made 22 hits, six of them, by George Kell to defeat the Indians at Cleveland. 15 to 1. Dick Wakefield hit a Detroit homer while rookie Ed Robinson’s homer was the only run off Tiger pitch- ■ er Freddie Hutchinson.
