Sain Outduels Feller ,1-0, in Series BRAVES FIELD, Boston—(AP) i —The underdog Boston Braves, I behind Johnny Sain, won the first game of the world series yester day by beating the Cleveland In dians and their ace, Bob Feller, 1 to 0. Feller pitched a world series classic—a brilliant two-hitter—but Sain blanked the American league champions with four safe blows. Tommy Holmes, Braves’ rigl t fielder, sent the National leaguers out in front in the big playoff by singling cleanly over third base in the eighth inning to score Phil Masi, a pinch runner, from second. The only other hit off Cleveland’s great fireballer was a single by Marvin Rickert in the fifth. A partisan crowd of 40,135 sent up a roar that must have raised ripples on the nearby Charles river when Holmes, a left-handed batter, crossed up the Cleveland’sdefense by hacking an outside pitch to left. Before the Indians could collect the ball, Holmes slid into second and another pinch runner, Sibbi Sis'ti, reached third. That was the only thing ap proaching a score in the tingling contest. Six Indians reached base on Sain, two of them on errors by third baseman Bob Elliott. Five of them reached second, but not a one spiked third as the tall, tough righthander bore down to strike out six men. ' Jubilant at Sain’s magnificent TOMMY HOLMES performance, Manager Bill South worth announced he would fire his second ace, southpaw Warren Spahn at the Tribe in today’s sec ond tussle.

Bob Lemon, the former out fielder who won 20 games in Cleveland’s pennant drive, was Boudreau’s choice to try to tie it up and send the two clubs into the third battle at Cleveland on Thurs day all even. Feller, a magnificent figure in defeat, brought on his own down fall when he issued his second walk of the game to catcher Bill Sal keld to open the fatal eighth. Masi went in to run for his fellow back stop, and reached the middle bag on a perfect sacrifice by Mike Mc Cormick. Eddie Stanky, a danger ous hitter in the clutches was pur posely passed and Sisti was put in to run for him. When Sain lined viciously to right for the second out it looked as though Bullet Bob might pull through safely.
