ir | That’ s Boston, Not the Cards

NEW YORK, April 25 (U. P).— They were calling Boston Billy |

Southworth's new ball club the Cape Cod Cardinals ogey--anat with good reason. They certainly weren't the Braves | of old yesterday when they hot- | a it to a 10-to-7 victory over| the Giants at the Polo grounds. In| fact, with the bright new red em- | blems on their road uniforms and! with Billy the Kid signalling his| base runners like a traffic cop from] the third base coaching spot, it Was, hard to believe that it was the] Braves and not the Cardinals at the ball game. They were a high-spirited array | of youngsters and from the opening play looked nothing at all like | an outfit that had been the victim | of a no-hit, no-run game the day| before. They got 14 hits against five Giant pitchers including sue-| cessive homers in the eighth by Tommy Holmes, with two men abase, and by ex-Cardinal Ray Sanders. Old Cardinal Trick { On the base paths they cut down | Giant pivot men twice to prevent being caught in double play nets— an old Cardinal trick. Afield they worked their speed to advantage the other way, clicking for five double plays. The vigor got the Braves nowhere in their efforts to: move up on the leading Dodgers and Cardinals, however. Both teams won their seventh straight victories to remain | deadlocked in first place. The Yankees slugged their way into first place with a 12 to 5 victory | at Boston. They got no help from | their key hitter, Joe DiMaggio, who, went “0 for 6,” but didn’t need it!

in a 15-hit maltreatment of (Tex) | ; Hughson. who was batted out in the! i

fourth, Ted Williams didn’t do $0, well, either. The Boston hitting star was booed noisily in the ninth

when he hit into his third double |§

play.
