    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. The White Sox won
In the ninth on a triple by
George Metkovlch, two Inten
tional passes and Eddie Ma
Ione's outfield fly, scoring Met
kovlch. 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. The old
record was 12, set by the Giants
in 1923.
Philadelphia at St. Louis in
the American League was post
poned because of wet grounds.
