By AUSTIN BEALMEAR ' Associated Press Sports Writer The Brooklyn Dodgers, who their work had they met the New with their hecklers from Harlem has generated more excitement in Gotham than any baseball battle since the last World series. Army relief will be the prin cipal beneficiary. With everybody who goes through the gates buying a ticket and many others purchasing ducats without going to the game, officials won't be satisfied with anything less than $100,000. The Giants helped the Dodgers preserve their nine-game lead yesterday by splitting a double header with the second-place St. Louis Cardinals, which is all the Dodgers could do with the Chi cago Cubs. It took the Dodgers 10 innings to turn back the Cubs, 54, in the first game. In the second game, Claude Passeau pitched the Cubs to a 7-6 triumph. Carl Hubbell pitched the Gi ants to a 7-1 decision over the Cardinals for his fifth straight win as Mel Ott blasted two home runs, one with the bases loaded. Then Mort Cooper tossed a four hitter at the Giants and the Cards won, 3-2. Tho Cincinnati Reds clung to their one-game third-place mar gin over the Giants by splitting with the Boston Braves. Al Javery blanked the Reds 7-0 on five hits in the first game, witli Max West contributing a grand slam homer, but Cincinnati took tho second, 4-2. The Pittsburgh Pirates dumped the Philadelphia Phils, 4-2 nnd 3-2, and hopped over the Cubs into fifth place. In the American league, the New York Yankees downed the St. Louis Browns twice and stretched their lead to 121 games over the Cleveland Indians, who wrested second place from the Boston Red Sox with the help of tha Detroit Tigers. A two-run homer by Tommy Henrich led the Yanks to a 4-2 victory over St. Louis in the opener and Ernie Bonham blank ed tho Browns, 100, in the nightcap, although he yielded 10 hits. The Indians nosed out the Philadelphia Athletics, 4-3 and 4-2. The Detroit Tigers knocked the Boston Red Sox into third place by four percentage points, taking the first game, 8-4, as Paul (Dizzy) Trout pitched seven-hit ball nnd contributed a three-run homer.
