But the Indians still will take Peters, if no other club beats them to the draw. Sullivan said the player's status was to be settled sometime today at league headquarters in Columbus, O. The Redskins want Peters for “Infield insurance.” They have “room” for another player on their active list and decided to deal out $4000 for the Toledo infielder to build up reserve strength for the trip through the western half of the circuit beginning next Tuesday.
Pitchers Make Comeback
It was a great battle on the Victory Field greensward ' last night, played before 5237 cash customers. Both teams scored two runs in the first inning and both starting pitchers were on the ropes. But the starting hurlers, Jack Hallett, Indianapolis, and Jim Wilson, Toledo, pulled themselves together and the duel was on. For the next eight innings the scoreboard marked up goose eggs.

your batters build up five and six run leads in the first inning, as Cleveland did in their last two games, so Paige doesn’t even get a chance to warm up in the bull-
pen. Yesterday, in a 14-1 rout of the White Sox, Cleveland clinched the game for lookie Gene Bearden with five runs *r the first inning. A six-run rally in the seventh was anti-climactic. Ken Keltner, the league's leading home run producer hit No. 20 and Jim Hegan also got a nomer for the winners, adding a double to bat in five runs. It was Bearden’'s seventh victory, He gave up seven hits. The victory increased Cleveland's first-place lead over the Philadelphia Athletics to a full game.
Two Grand Slam Homers Grand slam homers by Tommy Henrich of the Yankees and by Jim Russell of the Braves, ended two streaks in other standout contests yesterday. At New York, Henrich’'s blast gave the Yankees a sweet 6-5 triumph over the A’s which ended a four-game losing streak. George McQuinn accounted for the other two Yankee runs with a Homer and a double, coming around to score the final run after the two-bagger on- a sacrifice and Cliff Mapes’ fly. Russell's homer gave the Braves a 7-4 victory over the Dodgers at Brooklyn and ended a six-game winning streak for the Bums. A pair of walks yielded by Joe Hatten and a single by Bob Elliott preceded Russell's

brilliant, 4-0 victory over the Othe; at Chicago. It was easily th best performance of the year or the great right hander, who won 22 games in 1947, but who had been handicapped with shoulder trouble this season.
The Pittsburgh Pirates downed the St. Louis Cardinals for the second straight time, 6 to 4, in a night game. The Bucs took a 6-0 lead in the first two innings and took a tighter grip on second place as Fritz Ostermueller held the Cards in check.
The Boston Red Sox, behind the steady eight-hit pitching of Mel Parnell, won a night game from Washington, 4 to 1, at Boston. The Senators also made eight hits but didn’t get a man past first base after the first inning as Parnell bore down. The Tigers made 15 hits to win their fourth straight game, 12 to 2, from the Browns at Detroit. Virgil Trucks pitched sixhit ball and struck out six to win his sixth game.

Rikard batted in both Tribe runs in the initial stanza when he belted a long single with two on. He also hit a double in the seventh with none on. But how's about that 10th inning, pals?
