PA'GE TWO MEDFOTTD MAIL TRTBTJXE, MEDFORD, OREGON", MONDAY, JULY 11, 1932. A'S WIN, 18 T0 17 AFTER EIGHTEEN If, Jimmle Foxx finally Scores Winning Run in Spectacu lar Long Distance Fracas 58 Bingles Recorded By GAYLE TALBOT. Associated Press Sport Writer. The Philadelphia Athletics were only six games out of first place In tha American league today, hav Ing written Into the record one of the moat apectacular long-dlatance vlctorlee In baseball history, Eighteen Innings they traveled yee- terday to beat out the Cleveland Indiana, 18 to 17, and It was a game the likes of which won't be Been once In a blue moon. It was won and lost a half-dozen times before Jimmle Foxx finally scosed the de elding run. Burnett Gets 9 Hits, To Rive some Idea, Johnny Bur. nett of the Indians collected nine blta In 11 times at bat, and his teammates, Averlll and Morgan each cracked five. Foxx, with six hits, Including three home runs, knocked In eight runs for the A's. Simmons had five. There were 68 nita. Burnett's feat, for all the records disclose, might have established a major league record. The accepted mark of seven hits, set by Wtlbert Robinson before the turn of the century, was In a regulation lengtn contest. The veteran Ed Rommel went the last IT Innings for the Athletics and In the end gained the nod over young Wesley Ferrell, who was nr. Ing them over the last 11 and a fraction frames for the Indiana. But for the fact that Ed Morgan, Cleve land first baseman, let an easy roller trickle through his legs after two were out In the ninth, Cleve land would have won then and there, Yanks Lose Tnlca. What made the victory doubly sweet to the A'a was the fact the Yankees were being taken over the Jumps twice by St. Louis, 10 to 9 and 8 to 7. The Yonks don't look like the team they were a week ago, before Bill Dickey took his cele brated swipe at Carl" Reynolds and Lefty Gomel dropped his cloak of Invincibility. The Browns knocked Gomes from the hill In the first game to hand him his third straight defeat. Detroit divided a pair with the Red Sox, winning the first, 7 to 8. and dropping the second, 13 to 3. While Alvtn Orowder pitched steady steady ball, Washington belted three White Box flippers for 19 hits and a 13 to 8 victory. The leading Pirates made a fly ing raid Into the east and picked up an 6 to 7 win over Brooklyn when Hack Wilson let a drive get away from him In the ninth.' The rookie, Bill Swift, waa credited with his fifth straight triumph. Chicago's dazzling sophomore, Lon nle Warneke, shut the Braves out. 4 to 0 for his lath success of the year. The Cincinnati Reda belabored the Giants twice, 6 to 4 and 4 to 9. Bill Hallahan and Dlaxy Dean hurl ed the Cardinals to a double win over the Phillies, 7 to 8 and 8 to 1.
