Ted Lyons was tight in the pinches, despite the 11 hits he yielded, and fanned seven, Taft Wright's double off the right-field wall drove in the two deciding runs in the eighth inning of the nightcap. In the inning previous successive homers by Greenberg, with one on, and York, with the bases bare, gave the Tigers a 3-2 advantage. Despite the Tigers’ twin-loss, Cleveland could gain no more than a tie for first place. The Vittmen divided with the Browns. Al Milnar won victory No. 15 as Cieveland took the opener, 12-4, slugging five pitchers for 18 hits. A home run by Harlond Clift provided the edge as the Browns won the nighteap, 7-6. Tied at 3-all in the fifth the Browns tore into Al Smith for two runs each in the next two frames to bag enough runs to win, Brooklyn picked up a game on the Reds by dividing a twin bill with the Bees. After dropping the opener, 3-2, the Dodgers came back to win the afterpiece, 3-0, on Vito Tamulis’ seven-hit pitching. Dick

The Speed Is There impressive yesterday during his concluding five rounds of boxing at the Pioneer Gymnasjum. His old speed was there, and although he’s not a hard puncher, his blows seemed to have plenty of authority. So much so, in fact, that one of his sparmates, Willie Pavlovich. declined to box an extra round Roadwork and light limbering exercises today will prime him for ring time. He expects to scale about 178 pounds at the weigh-in tomorrow noon. Pastor, preparations register about 182 pounds. Meanwhile the infiux of more Pittsburgh money lengthened odds favoring Conn from 8-5 to 2-1. Thev think a lot of this in Pittsburgh.
