VonIts Even Score With Tribe New Yorkers Drub Cleveland Associated Press . " Larry Doby'. "kuM" and Poe . DIMagglo's hittini have put the , cooler on Cleveland'i Pennant ! drive at least temporarily. Doby drew a fine of an undis- closed amount Wednesday nirht ' after he was thrown out tryinf ' to (teal home with the base ' loaded and nobody out In the eiihth inninf. Doby's Cleve- land matei trailed the league ! leading New York Yankees, 7-3 at the time. That turned out ' to be the final score. Lefty Joe Pane, who had Just ; replaced "steady Eddie" Lopat was having his troubles. He i walked Manager Lou Boudreau on four straight pitches to force : In a run. He hadn't found the ' plate In two tosses to Bob Ken ' nedy. Then It happened. Doby broke for the plate aa Page walked back toward the resin bag. The pitcher whirled and threw to Catcher Yogi Berra, who tagged Doby aa he dove head first across the plate. Page proceeded to walk Ken nedy. Then he found his stuff to fan Jim Hegan and make plnrh hitter Ken Keltner ground to Bobby Brown. There seemed to be no ex ruse for Doby. Thirdbase Coach Steve O'Neill didn't send him in. although the crowd of 75, 340 booed him. Doby's club trailed by four runs. It defin itely was not any situation for a steal. DIMaggio, who lifted the Yanks past Boston when they threatened In late June, drove in three runs with a triple and a homer and scored twice aa the Yanks again stretched their lead to a i'i games. The Boston Red Sox dropped 8' j games behind the leaders by bowing to the Chicago White Sox. 8-7.

Detroit pushed over three runs in the eighth to shade Washington, 6-5. Johnny Lip on's squeeze bunt single scored Hoot Even with the winning run. Evers led the attack with three singles off loser Mickey Harris. Brooklyn lost a full game of Its advantage In the National. The St. Louis Cardinals clipped Brooklyn's margin to 2' game by a 10-lnning night game de cision over the Boston Braves, 6-4, after the Dodgers lost an afternoon 8-6 verdict to the on rushing Pittsburgh Pirates. Ralph Kiner lowered the boom on the Brooks, driving In five runs with home runs Nos. 25 and 26. His second homer came in the top of the ninth with two men on and brooklyn leading, 6-5. Lou Klein, one of the three Cards who returned to organ ized ball from the Mexican League, belted a two-run double off the left field wall that broke up the Boston game In the 10th inning. The Braves routed Howie Pollet with four runs In the second inning. Hank Sauer drove In all the Chicago Cubs' runs with two homers and a triple in their 11 innlng, 4-3, victory over the Phillies. Sauer, who hit only four homers for Cincinnati, now has 14 as a Cub and 18 for the year. His triple off reliefer Curt Simmons scored Andy Pafko who singled In the elev enth. The New York Giants set a new major league consecutive inning scoring record while whipping Cincinnati, 5-1. By scoring in each of the first three innings, they extended their streak to 14 innings.
