Chisox End Winoin -v Beating Indians j0 rioles Beat Yankees United Press International The Chicago "White Sox took advantage of three ninth inning errors and a three-run pinch homer by Earl Torgeson Saturday to score an 8-6 tri umph that ended the Cleve land Indians' four-game win ning streak. Dick Brodowski, who had not yielded a run in 18 13 in nings dating back to last Sep tember, was the victim of the Indians shoddy support and should have retired the side before Torgeson ever went to the plate. - The Indians carried a 5-3 lead into the ninth but the fielding collapse enabled the White Sox to score five runs on only one hit. Browdowski started to open the ninth. George Strickland booted a double play ball hit by Ray Boone and then threw wild to second allowing the first run to score. With one out, Brodowski himself drop ped a throw from Vic Power at first, allowing another run to score. Luis Aparicio walked and Torgeson followed with his game-winning blow.
