two out in the last half of the
ninth inning to win for Boston 8-4
Earlier 111 the game, Jones had
singled in two runs to give him
a total of six RBI s (or the game.
In the meantime the best York
could do in his first day in a
V'hlie Sox uniform wits to get two
singles in eight times at bat. both
of his hits coming in the second
game and having nothing to do
with Chicago's scoring. The Red
Sox moved Into a second place tie
with the Detroit Tigers, railing the
Yankees by one game.
The Yankees had climbed into
the American League's number one
position by virtue of a double win
over the St. Louis Browns. After
combing Jack Kramer for a 10-4
victory in the opener of the double
header, the Yanks, behind Randy
Qumpcrt., eked out a 2-1 win
against Bob Muncrlrf.
Washington surprised the Tmers
by taking both ends of a double
header. 1-0 and 5-1. to knock the
Bengals out of the league lend.

blasted eight Pittsburgh pitchers
to retain first place In the National
league. They lead the second place
New York Giants by six percentage
points.
The Giants retained a slim two
point margin over the third place
Cubs by winning the second game
of their double header with the
Reds in Cincinnati 9-1 after drop
