way home, scoring the Indians'
10th tally.
A big sixth Inning cinched the
game for the locals. Buddy

Henry Frank C'son, all en
tering the game in the fifth in
ning, and Garey all scored.
Sutherlin collected one hit In
each of the last five Innings.

Joe DIMagglo will don his fa
miliar "No. 5" New York Yankee
uniform next week and try out
the ailing heel that has kept him
on the sidelines since the sea
ion's start.
The test probably will deter
mine the Immediate baseball fut
ure of the fence-punishing out
fielder, whose $!H1,000a-yer sal
ary makes him the most expen
sive bench-warmer in the busi
ness. In the meantime, the Yankees
have no intention of putting him
on any sort of formal shelf until
there Is definite proof he won't
be able to produce.
"DIMagglo Is going to be on
my team until he can't play any
more." Manager Casey Stengel
said last night shortly before the
Yankees nudged the champion
Cleveland Indians, 4-3.

Cleveland's
4 Top Hurlers
None Able To Pitch Full
Game Last Two Weeks;
Detroit Beats Nats
By JOE REICHLER '
(Associated Preaa Stwirta Writerl
Lou Boudreau is a worried
young man today.
The peerless playing pilot of
the world champion Cleveland
Indians h burdened by a prob
lem emanating from a most un
expected source the Tribe's
vaunted pitching staff.
Every one of the big four
Bob Feller, Bob Lemon, Gene
Bearden and Steve Gromek
has been laid up by injuries, and
hasn't pitched a complete game
for nearly two weeks.
Bearden, who has been suffer
ing from a pulled leg muscle,
showed last night that he was
not yet himself. Plainly favoring
his injured leg, the tall left
hander lasted seven innings and
was clipped for 16 hits as the
Yankees defeated the Indians
4-3.
A season record crowd of 73,
150 saw southpaw Ed Lopat, long
a Cleveland nemesis, hold the
tribe to seven hits for his fourth
victory of the season.
Tlgara Defeat Nats
Detroit's runner-up Tigers re
mained two games behind the
league-leading Yankees by com
ing from behind to defeat the
Washington Senators, 4-2, in a
night game in Washington. Held
to five hits, the Tigers capital
ized on the wildness of Walter
Masterson and Forrest Thomp
son to score four runs In the last
two Innings. Johnny Lipon's sin
gle with the bases loaded in the
ninth drove in the winning runs.
Philadelphia's Athletics moved
into third place by defeating the
St. Louis Browns, 9-2. Alex Kell-
ner won his third relief victory
in a row, holding the Browns to
two hits and no runs in five and
two-thirds innings. He relieved
starter Lou Brissie, in the fourth.
Stephens' Homer Wins
Vern Stephens' ninth home run
In the eighth with a mate
aboard, enabled the Boston Red
Sox to nose out the Chicago
White Sox 4-3. Southpaw Mel
Parnell hung up his fifth victory
against one defeat for Boston.
Randy Gumpert was the loser.
The Cincinnati Reds beat the
Boston Braves, 5-4, to move with
in two games of the National
League lead, shared jointly hy
the Braves and New York Giants.
Boh Chesnes pitched and bat
ted the Pittsburgh Pirates to a
3-2 victory over the New York
Giants. Chesnes limited the
Giant sluggers to six hits and
slartcd the winning rally with a
ninth Inning three-bagger. He
scored when Ed Stevens singled
to center.
