Indians Get Orders From Manager Lopez By UNITED PRESS Al Lopez charged up his Indians with a “hustle or else” edict today, for their final tour of the Easteffil Badlands where-they have cracked ] up in other years in the stretch drive for the pennant. ■ He, demonstrated how tough he could get Sunday when he ordered slugging star Larry Doby out of the first game with the White Sox for failing to hustle. The Indians swept both games, 6 to 2 and 2 to 1, to move within V& games of the leading Yankees. Doby, the league’s biggest run producer with 83, sat on the bench all the way after his misadventure in the fourth inning of the opener. The incident occurred when Doby, apparently piqued because the scorer did not give him a hit on a ball that was fumbled by Eddie Robinson, failed to get from first to third on a single to right by Luke Easter. Wally Westlake, Doby’s replacement, did not get a hit, although the Indians won bbth games on fine pitching by Bobby Feller and Mike Garcia. The comeback of the two right handers also was significant since neither had been of much use lately. Feller pitched six-hit ball to win his first game- since Aug. 3, while Garcia, who had been batted out -six straight times, turned in a steady eight hitter for his 15th win. It was his first victory since July 24. ‘ The Indians, who open a series In Boston .Tuesday, then move to NeW York to play the Yankees in a make or break series on Friday, cashed In on opportune hitting in both games. Harry Simpson’s three run homer in the seventh was the key blow in the opener, while Garcia himself squeeze-bunted ih hia winning run. Gene Woodling, picked a fine time to get his 100th hit of the year, singling home the winning run for the Yankees in the ninth in their 3 to 2 conquest of .Boston, also highlighted by the two-hit three-inning scoreless relief pitching of young Tom Morgan. In other American league games, \ the Browns topped the Tigers 4 to 2. then lost 4 to 2, while the Senators defeated Philadelphia 7 to 2, then lost 11 to 7. Karl Drews pitched four-hit ball for the Phillies to defeat the Dodgers 2 to 1 for the third time this year and cut their lead to 7*4 games over the Giants, who split with the Braves. Boston took the opener 7 to 3 as Giant Manager Leo Durocber had to be restrained from slugging Umpire Augle Donatelli. Dave Koslo. celebrating the arrival of a son, pitched six-hit ball to the second game 4 to 2. p Rookie Stu Miller of the Cardings almost became the first hurler in modern baseball history to break into the majors with two straight shutouts, settling for a 2 to 1 victory over the Reds, who scored an unearned tally in the ninth. The Cubs defeated the Pirates 5 to 2 as pitcher Bob Rush drove in three runs with a triple and a force Out, and the Pirates took the second game, 5 to 2, with Ralph Kiner’s 2Gth homer supplying the margin..
