6-3 Boston Win
Br the AsaiM-laled Tm
If the Boston Red So ever catch
up with the New York Yankees In
their season-lonR American league
pennant chase, most of the credit
must be given to their much
maligned pitching statl.
In the last live merles, during
which time the Red Sox have
picked up six and half games on
the front-running Yankee. Boston
hurlers have pitched 24 complete
times In 34 starts. As a result,
they've won 25 of them to whittle
their deficit to five and a half
games. On July the Red Sox
trailed the leaders by 12 games.
Ellis Kinder, the Red Sox' right
handed ace, Is the latest to go the
rout. He finished what he started
last night, beating the Yankees, 8-3.
for his 13th Tlctory against five
losses.
Kinder permitted the Yankees 10
hits, Including a pair of home runs
by Outfielder Hank Bauer, but an
early 6-0 lead furnished by Birdie
Tebbetts and Ted Williams carried
him through. Tebbetts parked one
two-run homer In the second, and
Williams duplicated the catchers
feat in the third.
HIT STREAK ENDED
A capacity crowd of 35 991 was
mad happy by Boston's first vte
tory of the season over Raschi. a
note of disappointment crept in.
however, by the Inability of Dom
DiMaggio to prolong his consecutive
game hitting streak. The Red Sox
centerflelder. who had hit In S4
consecutive games, was held hitless
In five trips to the plate.
Williams' homer, his 28th of the
season, was the 250th of his career.
The triumph, Boston's 12th In 15
starta In this current home stand,
left the third place Bosox still a
game behind the runner up Cleve
land Indian The tribe whipped the
6U Louis Browns, 9-2. to reduce the
Yankees' lead to four and a half
games.
Bob Feller gamed his fourth
Knight and 10th Tlctory of the
aeason as the Indians ended a
three-fan losing streak. The star
righthander aided his own cause
with a bases-teaded single to the
fifth and a double In tho eighth.
The fourth place Philadelphia
Athletics and fifth place Detroit

a berth already latched down by
the Eagles.
The Eagles nine, behind the
superb pitching of Chet Ashby,
squeaked by with a 6 to 6 win over
Memu Billiards Monday night to
finish one game ahead of the Bills
In the final standing.
Tonight the Eagles win face Cal
