. They fought off third-place Chicago
, handily, winning 4-1. The huge
scoreboard in Yankee Stadium
showed Boston leading Cleveland
5-3 aflcr eight innings.
Must Be Replayed
But in the ninth at Boston Al
Smith coaxed Willard nixon for, a
walk with two out and Bobby Avila
drilled his second home run of the
contest to tie the score. That's the
way it stayed through seven more
innings. It would up a 5-5 tie after
16 innings with the league curfew
calling a halt.
You can't start an inning after
12:50 a.m.. local time, and it was
12:57 a.m. by the time .the last out
was li.aue in the 16th. It will have
to be replayed from the start
sometime later.
So, by four percentage points,
the Indians stayed in first place.
The issue may be settled tem
porarily this Weekend when Cleve
land invades New York for three
games starting Friday night.
While the American League race
was tightening, the National'
League became more lopsided with
the New York Giants stretching
their advantage over Brooklyn to
seven games, their longest lead
of the year.

The Giants won a 13-inning
struggle in Cincinnati 2-1 and
Brooklyn lost in 10 innings in Chi

and Pittsburgh were not scheduled.
Other results in the American
League included a 9-1 triumph by
Washington over Baltimore and
two more losses by the Philadel
phia Athletics, their 9th and 10th
in a row, this time to Detroit 12-0
and 4-3.
The Giants and Dodgers' games
both were decided on errors. In
Cincinnati, the New Yorkers
pushed across the winning run in
the 13lh on a single by Bobby Hof
man followed by two misplays and
a sacrifice fly by Whitey Lockman.
Gene Baker scored the winning
run for Chicago against Brooklyn
by scampering home from second
base when pitcher Jim Hughes
dropped an easy toss at first base
that should have been the third
out.
Johnny Antonelli stayed all the
way for the Giants in winning his
14th game against two losses. The
only run against him was a homer
by Ted Kluszewski.
Haddix Wins 14th
Harvey Haddix of the Cards
joined him as a 14-gai..e winner
after beating the Phils but Haddix
needed ninth winning help from
Gerry Stalcy. Four hits climaxed

Birdie Tebbetts Should Be
Homed Manager of the Year
By GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK UP) - At the rate
Birdie Tebbetts is going, there
should be little difficulty in elect
ing the Manager of the Year for
1954. With the National League
race entering its second half, the
iresnman pilot of the Cincinnati
Redlegs has turned in a job little
short of sensational.
A year ago at this time the Red.
legs, with almost exactly Uie same
talent, were floundering in the sec
ond division under that hard task
master Rogers Hornsby. They nev
er attained the .500 mark under
the Kajah, and they were destined
to wind up a bedraggled sixth, 37
games off the top.
loaay tne slugging Westerners.
goaded and smartly directed by
their new manager, are battling
tooth and nail for third place be
hind the Giants and Brooklyn and,
on their current form, must be
conceded at least an outside
chance of pulling one of the biggest
upsets of recent baseball history.
Few experts gave the club a hope
of finishing any hieher than it did
last season. Third place would
represent a genuine, triumph for
the popular Birdie.
Probably the only one not great
ly surprised by the way the Red
legs are staying in there and slug
ging with the leaders, despite
their uncertain pitching. Is Teb
betts himself. The stocky ex
catcher who took over after a
single year of minor league man
agerial experience at Indianapolis
never ceased to swear stoutly in
the spring that he was going to
climb over some clubs "and I
don't give a damn which ones they
are." .
