Indians Take Third In Row From Yankees NEW YORK UIP L If the Indians and Whitt Sox could Just get together and “double team’* the Yankees, they might knock them right out of first place. The only iroulble is that wheji Cleveland laeats the Yankees, the White Sox can’t. And making it more complicated as far as 'the Indians is concerned, now that they ha/ve discovered a magic formula which has netted six victories over New York, is that they have 'fallen apart against the rest of th-; American League. The Indians made it three in a row over the Yankees in the current series which ended Thursday, pounding out 14 hits for a 10.-2 triumph. But Chicago, which dropped a double header to the Yankees Sunday at a time when it could have tightened up the race dramatically, (also missed a chance to close in by losing Thursday to the Red Sox, (443. The defeat left the! White Sox 4 IJ2 games behind the Yankees.: ■ jy- . Early Wynn gave the Yankees only six hits while Luke Easter, >AI Rosen and George Strickland hit homers and Wynn himself collected a double and two singles in the pounding of three New York Hurlers, Yogi Berra’s two-run homer pievented a New York shutout. Hec Brown, who was traded to the Red during the off-season, set down his old- ( White Sox mates with four hits for nis 10th victory against two defeats ns Boston ended a seven-game losing streak. dHot Evers hit a two-run homer and tiwo doubles, scoring the winning run in the ninth after his second twoibagger was followed by a pair of bunts. Jim Rivera hit a Chicago homer in the bottom "H the ninth but his effort left the White Sox one run ~hort. Action of the National League pennant contenders was halted because of rain which washed out the at Brooklyn, St. Louis at New York and Milwaukee ax Philadelphia games. In the only N. L. game, Cincinnati put over four rrns in the first inning off Pittsburgh ace Murry Dickson, moving on to an easy 7-0 victory for lefty Harry Perkowski. cA two-run single by Jim Greengrass and a two-run triple by Will (Marshall supplied the punch so 1 * the big rally. Rocky Bridges latcr hit his first homer of the seasm and the second of his career in the majors. The Detroit Tigers, battling to escape <he American League cellar. swept a double, header from the Washington Senators, taking the opener, 9-6, in 10 innings ana the nightcap, 5-4, to move within

half a game of seventh place. Ray Boone won the opener tn dramatic fashion when he belted a three-run homer off Walt Masterson in the 10th inning. Ed Fitz Gerald had homered earlier for Washington. New Garter got credit for the victory, his seventh, while In the second game - Ted Gray gained his fifth victory, with ninthinning relief help from Steve Oromek. Jim Delsing and Bob Nieman hit nightcap homers for the Tigers. The seventh-place Browns we.it nearer the cellar when they lost a 7-4,1'4-Inning ipghi game to th® Athletics. Satchel Paige suffered" the defeat when Pete Suder singled home the tie-breaking run am» Eddie Robinson doubled to score two more. -Morrie Martin was the winner fbr the A’s in relief. Dave Phlltey hit an A’s homer. Pistons, Briggs In Pair Os Twin Bills FORT WAYNE, Ind. — Bill West and Elmer Rohrs, perennial aces of the Zollner Pistons’ 1 pitching staff, are tentatively tagged as the starting pitchers in Saturday night’s Zollner Stadium doubleheader with Detroit Briggs Beautyware, first of two week-end twin bills with the Zs’ bitterest rivals. The four-game series will be the high point of the National* Industrial Fastball League season. A sweep of the four-game set (two Saturday and two Sunday) might well decide the hot NIFL race. Briggs is only a couple of games back of the Pistons, who still have two to play a| (Detroit where they split a twin bill in late June.
