Every time the Yanks' ; lose-! a game and give the Indians | a big chance to lain, the Indians ‘ muff the opportunity. . 1 Th fact, if these, two clubs' keep l it up, those Boston’Red Sox may 1 come charging back into the race—they’re only 3 % games away today. 7 iThe Yanks and Indians did it F again yesterday. First, the New > Yorkers took" it on the chin from =1 the Detroit Tigers, 9 to 2. the third J straight loss for the Yanks. 'That gave the Indians a chance to boost h th&r league, lead from one game to two, but they Went right out 4 and lost a night game to the Wash- jt ington Senators, 1 to 0, getting only' U three hits off Bob Porterfield. . *4 Meanwhile, the Red Sox whipped 1 the. Str Louis Browns arid ace pitcher Ned Garver, 5 to 4. in 10 ft innings to -gain a length on both -1 clubs. • * The Yanks certainly Ipoked list- * less in -the loss to the Tigers. Ed i Lopat. bidding for, his 20th victory. 7 was belted for njne hits. five of 1 them in a row in a big, seven-run ,-fifth inning. And the Yanks made H four errors. i f Meanwhile, Virgil (Fire) Trucks i was hurling a seven-hitter for his y Iridth win in the-majors, his fourth t over the Yanks* this year.
