Giants Beaten Only Once On Western Tour New tork, May 9 —(UP)—- Last year Leo Durocher blamed’himself for the early season 11-game losing streak of the Giants—thia year he’s taking the rap because they haven’t won 14 in a row. They have wbn 12 out of 14, including all but one game in a triumphal nine-gafne western tour. Yesterday they wound it up with a brilliant tour-hit 3 to 0 triumph for lefty Dave Koslo, his ninth in a roW at \£he expense of the St. Louis Cardinals. And K could just as well have been their 14th straight, Durocher admits. The only two games lost during the hot streak were when hunchplayer .Durocher, ever the gambler, started aged Max Lanier in spot jcfbs although, Koslo and other members of the staff were well rested. The Giants lost both games, in fact they lost three of the games Lanier has started this year, , nond of which he finished. And they have lost only five in all. Yesterday’s victory was doubly sweet because curver Koslo ended the five game winning streak of Cardinal ace, Gerry . Staley. The Giants sewed it up with a > run in the third on Davey Willia/pis’ single and Whitey Lockman's dou- ' ble, and added two mqrfr in the fourth on Don Mueller’s double, a walk to Al Dark, a single by Willie Mays, and an error. The victory put them in a virtual first place tie with idle Brooklyn. In the ojjly other National league game, the Braves edged the Cubs, 6 to: 4 as Willard Marshall drove in four runs with a triple and two singles and Jim Wilson, with relief help, won his second game. The rough-neck Indians, making it five victories in_a_ row and three straight over the Yankees, drubbed theih, 12 to -5, as Harry Simpson and Ray Boone hit homers and i Boone banged in five runs. That , triumph put Cleveland in a virtual ,t»ie wi(h the American league pacesetting Red Sox, who dropped a t 4to 2 decision to the White Sox.; , The Browns edged the Athletics, [ 9toB, in a bat battle and the Senaj tors and Tigers battled to a suspended 11-inning, 4 to 4 tie as the game was called to let Detroit a train. Philadelphia at Pittsburgh in the National was rained out and the Dodgers tind Reds had open ' dates. • J . . Simplon, with an first inning hbnier. touched off a jinx-busting victory over Yankee I lefty Ed Lopat,. and Boone later added three more runs with a fifth inning homer. The Indians made 15 hits, Bob Kennedy getting a triple, double, and single and batting in three runs. They climaxed their humiliation of the Yankees with a six-run outburst in the ninth. Gene Woodling (nt a ninth inning Yankee 8 homer. i Saul Rogovih, snapping a sixgame Chicago losing streak, held Boston to five hits. Ed Stewart hit i a two-fun White Sox homer. j Jim Rivera, benched for a batting slump, smacked a ninth inning . homer, after coming in previously as a pinch-hitter, to give the Browns their victory.

Senators, protecting a six-game winning streak, which may be hung :up until the next time the Tigers ;come to town, scored single runs in the eighth and ninth to send the game into overtime. Relievers Hal White of Detroit and Tom Ferrick, then dueled t;wo scoreless innings.
