NEW YORK It's beginning to look as tnougn Jimmy Dykes hustling band oi Philadelphia Ath letics are starting to make anotner stretch run reminiscent ox last year's final quarter putsch. With a come-from-behind 4-3 win ever the Detroit Tigers last night the Fhiladelphians moved Into a tie for fifth place with the Chicago White Sox, eight games behind the Orsvplace Yankees. And to make their threat serious. Spokane Spurting By The Associated Press The Spokane Indians, still hoping to overtake Victoria in the Western International League pennant cnase oasnea Yakima twice Wednesday night to make it 21 wins In 28 starts. The Indians chased In six runs m the sixth inning and added two more In the eighth to down the Bears 8-3 In the first game of a doubleheader at Spokane, then took the seven-inning nightcap 2-1. The double win left Spokane still II W games behind Victoria's Tyeea who were shutout 6-0 by the Tri-City Braves. In other league action, Wenat- cnee trounced Lewiston 13-6 and Salem nosed out Vancouver 3-1. Bob Greenwood limited Victoria to four hits in pitching his shutout mi Kennewick. None of the Tyees reached third base. Wena tehee hopped on four Lewis ton hurlers for a total of 17 hits to take a 2-1 edge in the series at Lewiston. Brone manager Bill Brenner came in in the sixth and hut out the Chiefs for the last three innings, but the damage1 had already been done. At Salem. Bud Francis, 20-year- old rookie, pitched two hit ball until the ninth inning when Van couver scored its only run on a walk and two singles. Twin No Hit In 'D' Loop BATAVIA, N. T., HI One of baseball's rarest feats a double no-hit game was turned in by two Class D Pony League pitchers Wednesday night with Bradford aeiesnng Batavia i-o. Frank Etchbereer. a Philadel phia Phillies farmhand, gained the decision over Jim Mitchell as Bradford put together a walk, sacrifice, wild pitch and an in field out for the lone run in the eighth inning. Etchberger fanned six and Walked five. The 19-year old Mitchell struck out five and passed one. The only double no-hit game in the major league record book was turned In by Fred Toney of Cin cinnati and Jim Vaughn of Chicago in 1917. The Reds broke Vaughan's spell in the loth and won l-q.

B141 the A's have as well a balanced squad statistically as there is in the league. Three of their number either lead or are near the top in almost every hitting department. Ferris Fain. Dykes' swarthy first baseman, is making a substantial bid to retain the league hitting crown he won last year. He is setting the pace with a .341 mark, 14 points ahead of his closest pur suers, Dale Mitchell of Cleveland and the Yankees' Gene Woodling, who are deadlocked in second place with .327. The A's first sacker. whose forte is consistency, went four-for-flve last night. After a slow start Fain rose grad ually from the low 200s by virtue of two long hitting streaks, one for 24 games, a league high this year. He also seems to have aban doned the habit of aiming for the fences. The results speak for them selves, as his 140 hits are second best and bis 36 doubles are tops in the league. The long ball department Is In the hands of us Zernial. Gus set the pace last season In home runs and runs batted in and is making motions toward the double crown again. He stands third in homers with 33 and third in RBI's with 78. Last In the trio of Athletics so prominent in American League hit ting is the remarkable Eddie Joost. At the present sidelined with a leg injury, the' 36-year old shortstop has been in the big leagues for 16 years, out still ranks second In runs with 79 and just out of the top five in home runs with 19. Be spectacled Eddie has also knocked in 61 runs, an eye-opening figure for a leadoff man. In this capaci ty he tops all leadoff men In baseball. In pitching there's no need to mention how the As stack up. Every other baseball story this year has been about Bobby Shams. Just for the record, he is second among A. L. hurlers in percentage with .840. His 21 victories are tops. In strikeouts little Bob Is third with 118. Yank Pitching Faltering NEW YORK ( Win today's game today and worry about to morrow's game tomorrow. That's an old baseball saying in which Manager Casey Stengel of the New York Yankees apparently doesn't concur. At the least it looks that way with the pilot of the world cham pions holding out his two ace pitch ers Allie Reynolds and Vic Raschl for the two-game series against the red-hot Cleveland In dians opening in Yankee Stadium tomorrow. "Old Case," obviously concerned with Al Lopez's sluggers breathing down his neck, twice had led with second-string hurlers against the second-division Chicago White Sox. And twice he has seen his proud Yanks go down to defeat. As a result today they hold only a one game margin over the Indians and that's in the win column. They're all square on the losing side 60 games each. That's the shortest lead held by the champions since June 14, when they paced Cleveland by a half- length. Stengel, however, will try again today to whip the Pale Hose with a second-string pitcher. He has nominated rookie Tom Gorman, a righthander with a 4 and 1 record. Should Gorman fail and the Indians again beat the Boston Red Sox, the Cleveland leading by one percen tage point. Present plans call for Reynolds to hurl tomorrow's game against the Indians with Raschl getting Saturday's assignment. Either one or both were ready to pitch against Chicago but Casey chose to gamble with Johnny Schmitz Tuesday night and lost. Then yesterday the Yankee man ager tried to slip his bullpen bri gade past the White Sox. Johnny Sain took a quick whipping as he was belted for six runs in the third. Harry Schaeffer (who didn't get a pitch over the plate), Jim Mc Donald, Joe Ostrowski and Bill Miller trailed Sain in a forlorn array with only Miller looking like a major leaguer as the Sox won, 12-3.

Graham, who lost In New York to someone named Joey Olardello two weeks ago, easily took a unani mous decision over the aggressive Basllio in last night's nationally televised bout. He weighed 148 to Basillo's 1461. Only 2,762 fans were at ringside, contributing to a gross gate of 15.913.
