NKW YORK, Sepi. 29 (UP) The Clne nnati Ked.i ate champions of the National League, and they got there the hard way by defending their lead aganst one of the greatest August-September drives ever put on
by a challenger.
On Aug. 1 the Cardinals were 12 games ficm the top and only six games out of seventh place. In n whirlwind finish the Cards won 6.1 while losing 17. That's the kind of challenge the Reds had to beat back. Pcldups have been so frequent in recent years in the National League that the Reds' gallant stand to thwart the C.vds' pennant bid definitely marks the men of Bill MrKenchnie as a stouter-hearted club than they were credited with being. When ,a National League leader starts to slip slightly in August and September that usually means curtains as it did for the Pirates last season, the Cubs in 19:17, tbe Cardinals in 1935 and
the Giants in 1934.
But the Reus saw the Cards coming for two long months and they hung on. The Reds' 12-game lead ot July 30 melted to 5 1-2 games by September 1 and the Cards had plenty of time to overhaul them. But through the dangerous clays of September' Cincinnati doggedly held cn to its lead until the Reds put ov-
er the p; nnant-clinehcr yesterday by I National League and the Indians and
There were other valuable contrimtiona but these six did the heavy wo. k. Walters, with 27 victories, and Derringer, with 25, d i d the greatest two-man piteh'ng job in the majors since Grove and Fnrnshaw topped 52 for the Athletics in 1931 During their fiercest battle to de- i fen 1 first place in September, Per- I inger and Walters paced the Reds ’ with 11 victories and only two de-
feats.
Bill McKeehnie, who led the Reds "rom last to first place in two years, I achieved .another personal triumph for himself when he became the first major league manager to win three pennants with separate clubs. | He piloted the Pirates to the title in i 1925 and the Cardinals in 192S. His 1 Pittsburgh club won the worlds title but he suffered the ignominy of 'osing four str aight to the Yanks in !
1928.
A chart of the Reds’ pennant pro- j gress shows them getting away slowly but finally taking the lead . May 26 from the Cardinals never to ! lose it .again. Their ability to smacn | over the three bottom clubs played j an impo: tant role. They beat the Phils. Bees, and Pirates 49 times j
while losing only 14 times.
Interest in the waning days of the j two major league seasons will center | on the battles for third place be- ! tween the Cubs and Dodgers in the ;
