- ■ ■ - ■* — Cards Lose To Pirates, Lead Now One Game New York. Sept. 2s tl'Pi -The J little guy who might have given the St Lou I’ Cardinal* the Na I tional league pennant going away ,today will try to take it away. Sharp-featured Murry Dickson w.i« traded by the Card* last winter, over the vehement and even bitter protests of manager Eddie Dyer ' Since then Dyer many times ha* l feit the need for this curve ball cutie wh» n the Redbird pitching staff sagg<d He could have u*ed Dickson very much last night, for example, when the i’ittsburgh Pirate* mowed down five St Louis pitcher* for a 6 to 4 victory that sliced the Card league lead to one game over the Brooklyn Dodgers A victory in that tilt would have put the Redbird* almost out of reach of the Brook*, leaving each four game* to play. A* it i*. the Dodger* now are within striking distance. And to make matter* worse, the Cards must go against Dickson in this crucial game today. He will pit hi* 11-14 record against Gerry Staley, a l‘»-9 tnan who somehow avoided the ma«s meeting held by the Card* on the Forbe* field pitching mound last night. It was a rookie who wreaked the most damage on the Redbird* Tom Saffel nonchalantly cocked hi* eye at a 2-1 pitch with the ba»e« loaded in the second Inning, then lunged into it with teeth giitting The ball sailed high against the right field foul pole scre< n for a home -‘tun. hi* second in the major*. Those were the four run* which spelled the difference But a* much a* Saffel'* homer, the Cards could blame themselves for the defeat Red Scheondlenst committed two errors and the usually flawless Marty Marion one Too. another Pirate run was walked in during the five run second Innings. After it was all over. Dyer could say only, "we just got a bad game out of our system But remember, we still have a fitil game lead " The Cards did show spark In the eighth when they scored three rpns on Marty Marion's single, Del Rice's walk. Hoe Glavlano's single., Eddie Kazak's single and Chuck Diering'* single However. It ended in victory for Pirate pitcher Bill Werle though he needed relief in that eighth The loss went (o Red Munger, while Ted Wilk*. Howie Pollet. Fred Martin and Al Brazle went along for the tide The Reds beat the Cub*. 5-4 in the only other game in the Na thpial league Now comes the four-game stretch drive The Dodge** play Boston today in Boston, with pennant hope Preacher Roe pitching against either Warren Spahn or Johnny Sain The Boston Red Sox kept their one-game American league advantage over the New York Yankee*, beating their country cousin* from Washington. 6 to 4, in a night game after the Yanks downed the Philadelphia Athletic*. 3 to 1. in the sunshine That was the Sox' 11th straight victory and their 14th in a rowover Washington. They play the Senators two more game* before leaving reluctantly for the Paton. Walt Masterson, who left Washington for Boston earlier this sea son. jumped Into the relief breach when Joe Dobson was pounded by a three-hit barrage with none out 1 in the eighth Masterson retired the side. Vic Rasch! became the fifth 2‘i game winner in the major leagues thia season in the Yankee triumph It was a stirring return to form bls first complete game since Aug 17. The Yaak* won on only four hits. Joe Gordon's single in the ninth gave Cleveland a 3 to 2 win over Chicago in the only other American i league game.
