At the same time, the Yankees blanked the- Tigers, 2 to' 0, behind well-rested Vic Raschi’g; three-hlt pitching in his first start in a full week. The Senator* surprised the Indians by beating them, 4 to 2, while the Browns and.

Tlie Reda defeated the Braves, 6 to 1. and the Cardinals drubbed the Ph lilies, 10 to 2. There were almost certain to lie repercussions from that wild double bi|l In which the White Sox played the second game under protest because Athletics infolded in tpe first game brawl were per niitted to go back to the lineup. The trouble started when Ebner Vaio, coming home with the winning run Ln the 11th, crashed into Chicago catcher Gas Niarhos and hit him fullback- fashion, knocking the? ball from his hands. Losing pitcher Saul Rogovin started swinging at Valp and most player* from both teams got into a brief melee. Rogovin was given the; bounce, but Chicago managhir Paul Richards complained that the Athletics in the fight also should have been In the second game, Gus Zernial hit a grand slam homer, hi< l(|)th round trip clout of the yeas, and Jpe/ Astroth hit a three-run triple for the big Philly blows as Bobby Shantz breezed toi bls fifth victory 4 Bob Hooper won the opener.

The Yankees scored their other run off started Hal Newhouser in the, third.
