The Detroit club could be com posed of two fellows named Hal Newhouser and Dizzy Trout for all the average fan knew but the all important mnttcr of base hits was being taken care of by the 38-year-old Cramer. Known Best for his days of stardom with the Philadelphia A's, Cramer has set the pace for the Tigers with 22 hits in his last 41 at bats, boosting his aver age from a sub par .196 on June IS to a soaring .280. Pinky Higgins, Dick Wake field, Jimmy Outlaw and Rudy York were helping the cause but Cramer was the most sensation al in the club's recent surge. The New Jersey veteran was covering centerfield like a blan ket, using his knowledge of the hitters to best advantage, cut ting off reckless base runners with his rifle arm and perform ing that important task of get ting on base as the Bengals' load-off man. Cramer continued his spree with a triple and single, scoring two runs in last night's 3-2 edge over Chicago. Gentry scattered eight White Sox singles in his second complete game since June 22. It was Rule's eighth win and Johnny Humphries' ninth loss, winding up the season series be tween the two clubs with De troit holding a 13-9 margin. All other big league clubs were idle yesterday.
