Yanks Blanked On One Hit By Oriole Hurler NEW YORK (INS)—The magic number dwindled to ten today as the Cleveland express roared past the century mark, 5% games ahead of the winded New York Yankees. Any combination of Indian victories and Yankee defeats adding up to ten will decide the American League pennant race. And the way the Indians are piling up scalps (100) while the Yankees are being belted around by second division clubs, the Tribe threatens to wrap up its first flag since 1948—the start of the Yankee monopoly-—by next week. It’s highly improbable, though,

’ that the Yanks w|H do * complete about-face, although they play two with the rugged Chicago White Sox and a pair with the Indians themselves Sunday. That means the Indian* must keep winning while waiting tor the has-beens and never-was teams to pick off the world chain pinos as they have been doing with a fair degree of success. In fact the Indians’ ability to knock off the last three clubs 54 times while the Yanks managed only 42 victories has all but given the Indians their current lead. Thursday, the Yankees were ambushed again — this time by cel-lar-dwelling Baltimore, While Joe Coleman was pitching a one-hit, l-to-0 victory, the Indians were rallying to down Philadelphia, 5 to 4, in 11 innings. The 100th win against 40 losses with 14 games to go gave the Indians a percentage of .714, which was the mark the Yankees had at the end of the 1927 season for an

American League high. ' Coleman, 32-year-old righthander who was secured from the Athletics during the winter, handcuffed the Yanks completely until the gethth inning. Then Enos Slaughter got bad-hop single to spoil his bid for the no-hitter. The Orioles beat Tom Morgan in the fourth with a Gil Coan single, foreeout by Dick Kryhoski and single by Clint Courtney. It was the 12th win against 16 losses tor Coleman, who had pitched a twohitter and pair of three-hitter* this year and had lost five out of «ix times to the Yank*. It was the seventh AL one-hitter and 10th of the year. ’ nt The Indians trailed, 4 to 1, going into the eighth when they scored twice, one on Dave Pope’s home run. They tied it in the ninth and won it when reliefer Ed Burtschy walked home the deciding tally with the base* loaded. Hal Naragon drew the pass to forte in Dave Ho«kins. Hoskins ran for Al Rosen, who singled and pulled a leg muscle, and then advanced on walk* to Dave Philley and Rudy Regalado. Bill Wilson homered for the A’s’. Hal Newhouser, third reliefer behind Bob Feller, got the w-in. The White Sox fell games back on a 2-to-0 whitewashing by Washington’s Chuck Stobbs and Willard Nixon blanked Detroit, 8 to 0, on four hits. The Nfew York Giants retained their four-game National League edge over idle Milwaukee, splitting with Chicago. The Giants took the first one, 7 to 6, and then were blanked, 3 to 0. Brooklyn moved to within 5% games by drubbing St. Louis. 10 to 1, ip the only other National League game scheduled.
