Burdette, Turley Put Braves
Yanks Back on Path To Series
Uniled Press International
The "magic number" tor
the New York Yankees is
23, and for the .Chicago
White Sox that means "23
skidoo." The Yankees' 6-3 victory
ever the White Sox Thurs
day means that the Yanks
can clinch the American
league pennant by winning
23 of their remaining 33
games. Or any combination
of Yankee wins' and Chica-
t so losses adding to 23 will
jdo it.
S In the National league,
the Milwaukee Braves,
'with a 6 12 game lead, also
jhnve 33 to play. But their
"magic number" for a pen
inant clinching is 29.

Iew Burdette and Bob Tur
ley, two money players who
probably would pitch - the
opening game, have the
Braves and Yankees back on
the high road to the World
$eries.
4 Just when the comfortable
league leads of . both teams
eemed in danger, Burdette
sent the Braves 6li games in
front in the National league
when he whipped the Los
Angeles Dodgers, 4-0 Thurs
day night and Turley turned
back the surging Chicago
White Sox, 6-3, to put the
Yankees llli ahead in the
American.
Burdette, who doled out
four hits to the Dodgers, now
has won eight games since the
All-Star game.
Turley allowed six Chica
go hits in gaining his 18th vic
tory of the year, tops in the
majors and an all-time career
high for him.
The two right handers won
real big .games on Thursday
night.
.Giants Loss Helped
The Braves were in trou
ble, with their lead down to
0V2 games and a five-game se
ries with the second-place
Giants right around the cor
ner. But the Giants dropped
an 8-1 game to Don New
Combe of Cincinnati in the
afternoon and that gave Bur
dette his chance.

fourth inning, including hom

cette himself, was all that he
needed.
At Yankee stadium, the
White Sox came in sassy to
start a three-game series, rid
ing a seven-game winning
streak. They'd gained 51-2
games on the Yankees in the
last three weeks, winning 15
out of 20, and they got off to
a 1-0 first inning lead against
Turley.
But the Yankees crept
ahead, 3-2, and then broke
the game open with three
big runs in the seventh on
three singles, a walk, and two
sacrifice flies.
In other Thursday games
the St. Louis Cardinals be
hind Larry Jackson nipped
the Philadelphia Phils, 2-1;
Ernie Banks' 39th and 40th
homers gave the Chicago
Cubs a 5-3 win over Pitts
burgh; the Boston 'Red' Sox
outslugged Cleveland, 8-6;
Gus Triandos homer gave
Baltimore a 7-6 win over De
troit; and Hec Lopez's two
homers led the Kansas City
A's to a 7-4 win over Wash
ington. Banks Homers Twice
Jackson scattered 10 hits
to win for the Cards in a duel
with Curt Simmons. Simmons
balked home a run in the
fourth inning and Gene
Freeze singled home what
proved to be the winner in
the fifth.
Newcombe, gaining only
his tJird win against 11 de
feat, was treated to a four
run first-inning lead by the
Redlegs and breezed home on
a six-hitter.
Banks, the major leagues'
leading home run slugger,
drew even with Babe Ruth's
record pace for the year in
which Babe hit 60. He also
had a run-scoring double in
a perfect 3-for-3 day.
At Boston, the Red Sox
stranded 16 runners, but a
three run rally in the eighth
inning, including a two-run
homer by Dick Gernert, de
cided the game.
The Orioles, trailing 6-3,
came up with four runs in
the seventh, including Trian
dos' three-run clout,- to beat
the Tigers and tie them for
fourth place in the A.L.
Lopez' two homers for the
A's gave him 12 for the sea
son, seven against Washing
ton. .

Washington (ITD Own
er 'Clark Griffith of the Wash
ington Senators squirmed on
a hot spot today because the
Cleveland Indians' announce
ment they are considering
moving their franchise is forc
ing his own hand on the same
matter.
If Griffith really wants to
move his club to Minneapolis
which Thursday he refused
to deny he may have to
move fast before the Indians
beat him to the punch.
" If he decides he does want
to move, he may have lots of
trouble getting a vote of ap
proval from the league and,
in addition, may incur the
wrath of Congress.
If Griffith asks the Ameri

move to Minneapolis, he could
draw negative votes not only
from the Indians but also
from the New York Yankees
