Browns Forge Into League Lead;
Cain, Feller Chuck One-Hitters
By UNITED PRESS '
Skinny southpaw Bob Cain's
revenge is sweet and complete,
but only after he and the Browns
had shaded Cleveland's fabulous
Bob Feller, 1 to 0 in a double one
hitter the most spectacular
pitching duel in the major
leagues in 35 years.
Not since May 2, 1917, when
Fred Toney of the Reds and Jim
Hippo Vaughn of the Cubs
matched no-hitters for nine in
nings had two rival pitchers come
so close to no-hit immortality in
the same game. The Reds won
that famous duel of yesteryear,
1 to 0, when they got two hits
and scored with the aid of an er
ror in the 10th inning.
It required the spectacular
duel to steal the spotlight from
another rstonishlng event: The
victory, seventh in eight starts
for the Browns, moved them into
first place Wednesday night in
the American league race.
Victory Enough
The failure to pitch a no-hitter
hardly weighed heavily on Cain's
mind. For him,' the victory was
enough to make up for the fact
that he was the victim of the
third no-hitler of Feller's career
a 2 to 1 Indian triumph over
the Tigers last July 1.

from Yankee Clipper as Casey Stengel listens In, 'International,
For Feller, there was the heart
breaking thought of what might
have been. For little Bob Young's
leadoff single in the first inning
which rookie left-fielder Jim
Fridley misplayed into a triple
that led to the game's only run
spoiled his bid to become the
first pitcher in baseball history
to hurl four no-hitters. Feller
shares the current record of
three no-hitters with Denton (Cy)

Cain struck out seven Indians,

Game Result
St. Louis (U.R) The first
place St. Louis Browns crowed
happily Thursday over their de
feat of big Bob Feller in a record-breaking
pitching duel that
saw only one hit tapped out by
each team.
But the Cleveland Indians,
who dropped the 1 to 0 Ihriller
to left-hander Bob Cain, were
'in such a nastv mood Wednesday
night that Manager Al topez
tossed photographers out of the
team s dressing room.
"I don't want anybody in the
dressing room after we lose,"
Lopez said.
Apparently sulking over the
defeat by the traditional Ameri
can League doormats who thus
took the league league Looez
angrily told the lensmen, "When
we lose you just want to come
in here and get our pictures to
paste all over the papers."
The "Indians boarded a train
for Cleveland only 25 minutes
after the night contest.
Cain exulted in the victory.
"I owed this one to Feller. He
beat me 2 to 1 last year only
by pitching a no-hitter and Bob
Lemon had to get a one-hitter
to beat me by the same score,"
he said.
