Chisox, Braves Gain On Leaders With Twin Wins NEW YORK. UP — The Yankees and file Dodgers led the pack today as the field in the baseball sweepstakes reached another mile-stone in the season, the AllStar game vacation, but both the leaders were jnighty worried. The Yankees have apparently emerged from the fog of their nine-game losing streak, but still they can’t gain ground on those pesky White Sox. And the Dodgers, with five defeats in their last 10 games and their wobbly pitching staff threatening to come completely unstuck, find themselves under pressure, from no fewer than four genuine pennant contenders -4 the Braves Phils, Cards, and Giants. Sunday was a typical example, as both league leaders won single games and 'still lost ground. The Yankees scored a ninth-in-ning run to beat the Washington Senators, 6-5, but their lead was reduced to five games as the White Sox swept a doubleheader from the Cleveland Indians, 14-2 and 3-1. Despite two homers by Yogi Berra, the Yankees nearly lost whipn the Senators shoved over two runs to tie at 5-5 in the ninth inning Sunday. But Yankee reliefer Allie Reynolds gained his eighth win wlTen Mickey Mantle walk-' ed in the last of the ninth and moved around on a walk and Gene Woodling’s pinch single. The White Sox blasted out 32 hits in their twin, bill. Minnie Minoso getting six. Mike Fornfeles and Virgil Trucks hurled six-hit-ters back-to-back to win, although Billy Pierce had to help Trucks in the ninth. Art Houtteman and Bobz Lemon were the well-lath'er-ed losers.The Dodgers salvaged the last game in a series against the Giants. 4-3 in 10 innings but their Nationals league lead was cut to 1% by the Milwaukee Braves, who sw*ept two games from the Cardinals. 10-1 and 4-3, dropping the Cards to fourth place. Hoyt Wilhelm failed in relief for the Giants, blowing a 3-1 ninth inning lead by serving up a tworun homer to Billy Cox and then walking Bobby Morgan with the bags loaded in the 10th to force home the winning run. The first grand-slam homer of Ed Mathews' career, his 27th circuit clout, marked the Braves’ opening victory as Johnny Antonelli breezed to win No. 8. Milwaukee came from behind to take the nightcap with a two-run, seventhinning rally on doubles by Walker Cooper and Jack Dittmer and Billy Bruton's single. Elsewhere in the National league, the Phillies moved into third place by beating the Pirates twice, 6-4 and. 6-5. also running the Pirates’ losing sitreak to 19 games as Del Ennis clouted two homers to help Robin Roberts to his 14th win in the opener and Steve Ridzik's scoreless relief pitching won the nightcap, knd the Redlegs used southpaws Harry Perkowski and Fred Baczewski to beat the Cubs. 7-4, .and 7-3. although Ralph Kiner hit homers No. 20 and 21 for the Cubs in the opener. In other American league games the A’» and Bed Sox split; the Sox taking the opener. 9-5, as Del Wilber drove in six runs with a double and a homer, and the A’s winning the second, 4-1, behind Harry Byrd’s six-hitter; while, the Tigers beat the Browms, 8-7, in i the first game of a twin bill when Satchel Paige walked home the winning run, before the Browns won the Secorid, 3-2, on three first-inning runs off ex-Dodger Ralph Branca, who was making his American 'league debut.

except the pitchers were chosen 1 by a mandate of some two million fans who participated in a nationwide poll. : Z - t ■ rThe National league, which has wpn three straight classics, was ruled a 7;5 favorite to win. The American league, however, leads in the series, 12 games to 7, and never has dropped four in a row. Pierce, a fast curveballfer who has won 10 games and lost five for the White Sox, seemed Stengel’s logical choice because the American league’s ripening pitcher must face a predominantly lefthanded hitting Hneup. Roberts, on the other hand, seemed the imminent choice of Drjessen simply because he is Roberts —a 28-game winner in 1952 and a 14-game winner this season. I StepgePs other'choices are Allie Reynolds and Johnny Sain of the Yankees, Mike Garcia and Bob Lemon of the Indians and the ancient Satchel Pai£e of the Browns. The contest shaped up as a battle between the National league’s imposing array of long-range hitters and Stengel’s lighter-hitting 1 but excellent defensive squad. , ' Stengel, smarting after losing thy-ee Yojnsecutive All-Star games, has promised an all-out effort. His
squad is unusnal—with only two catchers and no fewer than four shortstops —i and, seemed built for Casey’s famous two • platooning and a liberal use of pinch-hitters. Dressen likewise has promised an all-out effort and has hinted that he will play the starting nine the! entire nine innings if necessary. r . ...
