JOE CRONIN’S Boston Red Sox have played 12 games with the White Sox this season and have won nine of them. . . . They've won only 33 games while losing 28 to the six other American League clubs, so you'll have to hand it to the White Sox for putting the Red Hose where

they are today in the scramble for the pennant.

But for their Chicago “cousins” the Boston boys would be in the second division, according to the statistics. . . . Jimmy Foxx has belted eight home runs against Jimmy Dykes’ pitchers in the 12 games. Last season when the Yankees annexed their fourth straight pennant they were 11!. games ahead of the field on the Fourth of July. But that was last year. Johnny Cooney, at 38, still finds his way into a big league box score occasionally. . . . The old Indianapolis star is a player-coach with the Boston Bees and stands by for an emergency in the outfield or as pinch hitter. , , . As a fly hawk Cooney has had few equals.

Oscar Vitt’s Slant on Pennant Race

OSCAR VITT, the Cleveland pilot, consulted the crystal ball the other day and came up with this observation: “You may see the American League pennant race decided on this third visit of the Western clubs in the East. “If our team can hold an edge for the tour, it will come home in a formidable position. Do not lose sight of the important fact that we spend virtually the entire month of September at home. The schedule may clinch the pennant for us.

“IT LOOKS as if Mel Harder is going to come through, at last. With Feller, Milnar, Smith and Harder all set to start games in the East, our pitching looks fine. Allen is not quite ready to go the route again, but he should be useful as a relief. I counted on Smith to be my chief dasher from the bullpen, but that man has turned out one of my best bets. “The Tigers, with their power, with Newsom and Bridges, and occasionally Rowe, giving experienced tone to their pitching, and those two kids, Newhouser and Gorsica, coming through for them, are going to be exceedingly tough.

Banks on His Brilliant Infield

“I AM counting on our superior infield to prove the deciding factor. You cannot imagine what Boudreau and Mack are doing for us unless vou see them play every day. “As for the Detroit infield, who knows when Bartell will have to step out? So far he has been the spark of the club. Higgins is in-and-out, and Gehringer has slowed up incredibly. As for York as a fielder—well, he's slow on the defensive side. “Give us some real heat, infields baked hard by the sun, and maybe the Detroit inside four will not be able to stand up to the fight. “Bartell has been kept in the game by Denny Carroll, the Tiger trainer, Maybe that magic will fade.” = ” CONNIE MACK of the Athletics, who made the pre-season prediction that the Yankees would fail to repeat for the American League pennant this year, stili holds the opinion that the Bombers have only an outside chance, according to Dan Daniel of the New York World-Telegram, “You see, in order to get going, the Yankees must have Dickey in his old form. And they must have pitching. “No, you can't regard Mew York's chances as very strong. It's just as I told you back in April. I figured the Yanks might be driven to it, but now it seems not even hard driving can do it.”

Dahlgren’s Last Year With Yanks?

REGARDLESS of where the Yankees finish this season, the reports are that this will be Babe Dahlgren’s last season at first base for the New York outfit. . . . When the club was batting in its 1939 form, it could afford to carry a Fancy Dan at first base for his fielding, and there is none who can excel Babe in playing the bag. McCarthy knew Dahigren’s limitations as a hitter, but Babe drove in quite a few runs with a .235 batting average in 1939 and the Yankee pilot was in hopes that with that full season under his belt he would boost his figures considerably in 1940. Buf a batting average of .184 for Dahlgren on the Yanks’ last disastrous swing through the West indicated to McCarthy that Babe will not hit enough to make an acceptable major league first baseman.

TOM YAWKEY, owner of the Boston Red Sox, is keeping posted on lighting plant prices—and that is all. . . . # After Owner Walter Briggs of Detroit announced he was preparing for night play equipment, Yawkey was queried, and said Fenway Park had been surveyed for light and towers twice—but he wouldn't commit himself on whether the Red Sox would go in for nocturnal play.

Rain yesterday prevented the Reds and Dodgers from tangling in a single game here and brought about today’s double-header between ithe two National League pace‘makers.

It's Tough for Dodgers

It was a tough break for the Dodgers, who tried to get the Reds to postpone the odd game until the next trip but it was no dice. Thus the Dodgers, who've lost three games in a row and have two regulars out of the lineup—Pitcher Hugh Casey with a brain concussion and First!

The Indians have five more games to play during the current home stand, one with the Blues tonight, two with Milwaukee tomorrow, one with Milwaukee Monday and one with St. Paul Tuesday.
