The world series is beginning to look safe again for the Brook

What - little excitement had been breathed Into the two major
league pennant races in-recent, day apparently was expelled
yesterday as the Brooklyn Dodgers bounced out of-their lethargy
and quelled the St.' Louis Cardinals 4-1 and the onrush of the
Boston Red Sox was checked 1
by the Cleveland Indians 4-2.
V; The Dodgers had the - cock
sureness taken out of them at
St. Louis as the Redbirds took
the first three tussles, but the
net result.. of the struggle in

Monday night. 'The stocky
southpaw wasn't up to the job,
however, and was shelled-for
five successive, singles and three
runs in the fourth. Another
lefthander, Ernie . White, ; came
In and was; pelted for an addi

final run before ' getting ' his
house in order.- v
The veteran. Curt Davis, once
a Cardinal, won his. 14th tri
umph of the season as he held
the Redbirds 'to eight scattered
hits and knocked in. two of
Brooklyn's runs .with a single.
Tha Red Sox' string of nine
consecutive ' victories ' not only
was broken in the only Ameri

straight pitching triumphs also
was snapped as Jim' Bagby of
the Indians hurled, a five-hitter.:
One of the five, however,
was: Ted Williams' 27th home

At Cincinnati the New York
Giants beat the Reds 2-0 by

Pacific Coast league baseball
fans used to mumble sympathe
tically about "poor old Tom
Seats," but today they have only
praise for. the plodding San
Francisco southpaw pitcher.
Seats, far down" on the per
formance list for league hurlers,
turned out a four-hit job yester
day to blank the formidable Se
attle Rainiers, 4-0, and outpltch
Dick Barrett, the loop's leading
chucker.
The lower division ' Seals
bunched three runs in the sixth
on two hits and a pair of walks
off Barrett, who was charged
with his 12th loss against 23
wins this season.
Batters took the limelight at
Los Angeles where the first
place Angels pounded four Port"
land hurlers for 20 safeties to .
win 16-6.
The excitement was no lest
at San Diego where Hugh Luby,
Oakland, third baseman,, sur
passed a 25-year-old league rec
ord for continuous games played
by participating In his 679th
contest since 1939.
Apparently inspired by th
event, the Oaks took the twi
light game, 2-1, behind the six
hit pitching of Jack Salvesoa,
who chalked up his 18th win of
the season.
Sacramento, .one of the twi
light teams, edged out Holly
wood, 3-2, in a 10-inning tussla
decided by Ray Mueller's homer.
