T Brooklyn's Red Hot Dodgers Run String to Six Straight By FKED DOWN , United Press Sports Writer The unbeaten Brooklyn Dodgers are making the fastest start the National League has seen in 15 years, while the New York Giants are oil to the poorest defense of the league championship since the Cincinnati Redlegs blew our straight games to. open the 1911 campaign. The Dodgers ran their winning streak to six games with 10-3 and 3-2 victories over the Pittsburgh Pirates Sunday and the Giants' slump mounted to five losses In six games when they dropped a pair of 4-2 decisions to the Phila delphia Phillies. The Dodgers will try for their seventh straight against the Phillies tonight while the Giants attempt to right them solves in an afernoon game w the Pirates. The Dodgers' six straight wins gave them the best "getaway streak" in the circuit since they reeled off nine in a row in 19-10. That nine straight to open a sea son is the major league record, which they share with the 191-1 SI. Louis Browns, and the 191K Giants. Since 1910, no N.L. team has start ed a season with more than five straight victories. Heavy Hilling The Dodgers blasted out 15 hits, including seven doubles and hom ers by Duke Snider and Roy Camp anella, to win the first game be hind Johnny Podres' six-hitter and took the nighlcap when Clem La bine and Jim Hughes collaborated in another six-hitter. The Phillies, meanwhile, dropped the Giants into a tie for sixth place behind the solid pitching of Robin Roberts and Murry Dickson. Rob erts bested Johnny Antonelli in an 11-inning opener decided by Stan Lopata's two-run homer. Dickson then limited the Giants to two scratch hits as Sil Maglie suffered his second loss of the year. n.-uvy liming m.iiKcu niosi t. 4 2 wjn .,,,,. ,,,p rh!eago v,.v Sunday s other fames, with Al Ka (Sw won ,hpir first .,,,,, 3., hr. line providing me greatest imnviti I ual outburst.
