Rpcrardless of their, humble position
n tho American league standings as
'the baseball season neara jis nan
ay mark, the Boston Red Sox can
-put in a claim lor the honor of hav
ing the best pitching in the major
(leagues. They eau't hit well enough
;to take advantage of their hurting
Of the group of moundsmen. Milt
'Gaston Is perhaps the hardest work
er and most effective pitcher. The
' itar right hander pitched again yes

dians to three hits in his sixth com
plete game In succession and his 13th

) M many hits as he allowed, having
W perfect day at bat. - The Rod Sox
i collected 11 blows off Mel Harder,
but the best score they could pro
duce was 3 to 1, It was Cleveland's
lGth defeat in 19 games.
la , Short One-Hit Game
Bob Grove, Philadelphia's speed
ball ace, did about .as well as Gaston
In the brief time the weather allowed
the Athletics to play. He allowed
etrolt just one hit. in five innings
'While young Bob Williams aided him
to a 4 to 1 victory. Williams pro-
'duced most of Philadelphia's count
ers by driving out a home run when
he was sent In as a pinch batsman
with two on base in the second in-
;sning. -- - -
;t The National league was . saved a
. lot of complications when the Brookr
lyn Robins blew off the accumulated
i bad baseball of weeks in one Inning
against the St. - Louis - Cardinals..
I Watson Clark, j Brooklyn's leading
i southpaw, proved ineffective in the
i second game and Clise Dudley and
) Jim Elliott were not much better.
They gave nine nits ana oemna tnem
lthe Robin fielders committed three
,f errors. The result was eleven runs
and a 15 to 7 victory for St. Louis.
I m. Cubs Downed by hints
.fwhile this was eolne on. the leaeue
leading Chicago Cubs were in the
process oi losing a to d decision
to the New . York Giants. The Cubs
are a game and a half ahead now,
but the Robins, had they won, would
have found themselves In the strange
position of being ahead In the per
centage table and behind in games,
Fred Fltzaimmons was the leader
(in the victory over the league lead
ers that kept the Giants in third
place.
K Klkl Cuyler's two home runs and
Hack Wilson one were all that pro
duced tallies for the Cubs.
Pittsburgh replaced Boston in
fourth place by defeating the Braves,
8 to 3.
