Lou Boudreau Sparks Sox Io Win Over Yanks J :: f ’ New Yorl|{, April 28—(UP) —That .man Lou Bbudreau is supplying the fire the Red Sox were supposed to Ikck—he wins ball games- while playing with a fever. He was a! hot man in- more ways than one yesterday when he shrugged off an Attack of the grippe and supplied the spark tha.t gave Roston its second straight victory over the New York Yankees, 4 to 3. Ife figured in two double plays, drovS in what proved to be the winning run with one of his two hits, and played brilliantly afield, handling six changes at Sjhoristop. The victory marked the first time a Red Sox nitcher' had gone the distance this year and even though Mel Parnell was touched for nine hits and gave up six walks, the support afield enabled him to leave 11 men oil base. Vic Raschi was the losing pitcher. Boudreau smacked in the deciding run in a rally in the Hifth’after the Red Sox previously had gotten to Raschi for two runs in the third. There was plenty of gloom for the Yankees irt defeat for Joe DiMaggio, after hitting his first homer of the year, came out of the game with an injured right shoulder. . Jerry ] Coleman, playing on a bad leg., made two errors, knd Mickey Mantle? the rookie whiz got no hits in, four times at bat and is now "0 for 113." The Washington Senators took over first place in the American league by. whipping the Philadelphia A’s, 6 to I.' in a night game. .Cuban Sandalio Consuegra hurled a fine five-hitter for the Senators. following in the footsteps countryman Con Marrero], who had a one-hitteif the day, before. Tlje senators pounded three A’s pitchers f®r 10 hits, including two doubles by Irv Noren and a triple* by Gil Coan. In the National league, ,-the graves topped the Giants. 7 to 3, extending their winning streak to four games]. Brooklyn outslugged the Phillies, 11 to 5, and the Cardinals blanked the Cubs. 3 to 0; while in a night game, Cincinnati beat Pittsburgh, 7 to 5. Panic seized the New Yor)c Giants w'hd \yent down ta their ninth straight defeat as pitched five-hit ball to win a battle pf homers. If was the longest Giant losing streak since’-1944 for the club whleh'most experts selected to win t pennant^TCach team made three horiiers Of* Boston’s were more produetiyHj Willard ’Marshall, an ex Giant, masted M thf.ee-run to provide the winning margin in the sixth, while Sid Gordon, also an Bob Elliott, hit the other .round i trip blows. Leo Durocher shook up his lineup and at least he produced homers- by rookie Rafe Njoble, Jack Maguire, and Eddie Stanky, none of whom were in the previous game. It* was the first ! start lof the for Noble and Maguire., L jGerry Staley pitched a six-hitter fcive the Cardinals a record of only twiOyTuns scared against them in the last four gapies. It was the second straight Red Bird shutout.; He had to/be good to beat rookie' Bob Schultz, who yielded only five' hits but was troubled by W’ildness and his own fielding lapse. The Dodgers came out' of a hitting slump to defeat the Phillies easily, Gil Hodges setting the pace with -two 'homers and a double.' Billy \Cox .also homered and Del Ennis got’-one for the Phillies as Joe Hatten coasted to a 10-hil triumph, x ■ / Joe Adcock’s two-run homer in the sixth inning gave the Reds their win over the Pirates. Grady Hatton hit anoither Red homer, while league fence-busting champ Ralph Kiner found the range dor the firsit time this season. There were m) other ppies scheduled.) j , I .
