Bobby Shantz Jakes Bth In Row Wednesday By UNITED PRESS His teammates call him the “garbage man" and Bobby Shaptz. tiniest pitcher in the majors, says j just “call me a physical freak.” But plenty of competent authorities were calling him the best pitcher in the American League Thursday. . The 5 f00t,,. 7 inch lefty for the Philadelphia A’s, who weighs just 150 pounds, Wednesday night won his eighth straight gatne, 4 to 3, from Detroit, retiring 14 men in a row at one stage and pitching onefor the final five innings of his ninth straight complete game. \ J \ It also was the fifth straight victory for the oncoming “Athletics as Eddie Joost supplied the big punch with a two-run homer, his third in six days, and his sixth of the year. v Shantz, the\ “anighty molecule” of the A’s, still can’t figure out how it has come, about. He baffles the batters With an assortment of curves, knucklers, fast balls and a well-controlled change Os . pace. That’s why the rest of the A’s call him)the “garbage man” — it’s for the stuff with which he litters the plate. Various American league experts, including boss Bill Veeck of the Browns and Manager Casey Sthngel of the Yankees, insist that; pound for pound, no man in the majors is his equal as a pitcher. The self-styled “physical freak,” who pitched a 14-inning 2 to 1 win the Yankees in his last start, had trouble in the ninth when the i Tigers scored their third run. But he pitched out of the jam despite a arm whicli was affected by almost an hour and a half delay sot \ rain. Johnny ’ Groth was his | most troublesome customer, start, iirg the ninth with a single on which he eventually scored, and

hitting a two-run homer earlier. Shaptz stryck out seven to take the major league lead with 55. Boston, •with three of its new men—Hoot Evers, George Kell and relief 1 pitcher Dizzy t Trout —leading the way, took over first .place again with a 13 to 11 victory over Cleveland. The . Yankees topped Chicago, 6 to 3. In the National league, Brooklyn moved two games ahead of second-place New York by defeating the Pirates, 7 to 4, while Chicago topped the Giants. 6 t 0.2.

Charles Heavy Favorite To Win Tonight PHILADELPHIA, UP — Jersey Joe Wrilcott, 38-year-old father of six children, will try t 6 deliver miracle No. 2 Thursday night by keeping his world, heavyweight championship in another title bout with Ezzard Charles in the vast concrete horseshoe of Municipal Stadium- / iOdds-makers. aay a Walcott victory tn, hiß first title defense would he much more remarkable than a Charles triumph despite the fact that 30*year-old Charlies would be tfce firss' ex-ehampion i« boxing history to recapture the heavy crown., \ [The bvoKies quoted Charles of Cincinnati an 11 to 5 favorite to bqat Walcott of Camden, N. J., in the fourth championship fight between the two Negroes.
