Erskine Hurls Two-Hitter To Beat Redlegs NEW YORK (INS) — Brooklyn control artist Carl Erskine has turnedthe American League into a bunch of Giants rooters. They hate to think what will happen if the Dodgers win the National League marbles and give Erskine the chance to avenge his all-star defeat. \ f Carl, you remember, was called to the rescue at Cleveland nine days ago with the game tied 9-9 in the eighth inning, one out and the bases full of AmericanLeaguers. \ ™ He struck out '53 AL bating 'champ Mickey Vernon but gate the junior circuit its first all-stir triumph in five years when Chi-' cago's Nellie Fox poked his blooper over second base. Carl hasn’t .forgotten that rather humiliating experience before 68,751 fans and is*blaxing away in an effort to instill some life in his club and land a return engagement with the best in the American FOR ATHLETE’S FOOT Kenatolytic action Is a must!

League this fall. „ Wednesday night he flashed the form that made him Brooklyn’s lone 20-gamc winner last year and the llstrikeout hero of the ’IS World Series. 27-y Mr-old righthander toesed a brilliant two-hitter te help down Cincinnati, 5 to 1, keeping the Dodgers seven games behind the Giants and dropping Aho Radlegs into a fourth-place tie with Milwaukee. He struck out ten — giving up only a double to tßoy McMillan In the first inning and a homer to Bob Borkowski (his first of the year) in the second—and retired 23 men in order.. He did not walk a man, facing 29 in all. He went to three balls only twice and made just 105 pitches. Only one other ball went beybnd the infield, Carl Furillo •handling the only outfield putout. It was the 11th victory in 20 decisions for Erskine. His mates battered Bdd Podbielan for 15 hits that included six doubles but it wasn’t until the seventh that the Dodgers could take the lead. A dozen Brooks were left stranded. Carl Furillo, the league’s ’53 batting king, paced the attack with five straight Safeties in as many times up. Gil Hodges also enjoyed a perfect game before the 14,831 fans present in Crosley field with two doubles, a single, sacrifice fly and walk. - \ The Giants trimmed Chicago, 2 to 1, earlierAbn Sal Maglie’s four hitter. Robin Roberts pulled the Philadelphia Phillies into third place one percentage point ahead of the Reds and Braves by pitching a four-hit, 6-to-l victory over
