Canny Connie Mack's Phlladel-1
ohia Athletics, perennial also-
rans threw the furious stretch
battle for the American league
cennant into a three-team tie
today when he sent Bobo New-
son! out to defeat the New York
Yankees 6 to 3 on six well dis
tributed hits.
Against Newsom, wise pitch
ing man with many campaigns
of experience, Manager Joe Mc
Carthy sent Rookie Floyd Bev
ens, who had, turned in only
two victories all season. Mc
Carthy, seeking to rest his aces
for the big series with Detroit
next week, saw his strategy ex
plode in his face when the A's
acquired a 5 to 1 lead and when
Atley Donald came In to re
lieve him In the fifth, the dam
age was irreparable.
Mack himself gambled in
itartlng the erratic Newsom,
who had dropped five straight
decisions to the Yankees this
aeason. The big fellow was
right today, however, letting no
Yankee get more than a single
hit. All of the Yankee runs
came on homers. Tom De La
Cruz of the Cincinnati Reds
missed a no-hltter when Jim
Russell of Pittsburgh hit a
first Inning triple, after which
he pitched eight hltless Innings
to win 2 to 1. The Reds also
took the nightcap 3 to 1.
Chicago rapped the slumping
St Louis Cardinals 9 to S, with
Rookies Bill Trotter, El Byerly
and Fred Schmidt taking a
pounding from the Cubs.
The Brooklyn Dodgers divid
ed a double bill at Boston win
ning S to 4 In the first game
in which league leading Hitter
Dixie Walker made three hits
in four times at bat including
a home run. The Braves sup
ported by homes by Workman
and Nieman took the second
game 4 to 2.
