KR Jf ' The Associated Pre " Baseball folks were beginning to wonder today whether Brooklyn may be headed for the most spec tacular smashup in ttie long Dodg er tradition of blowing pennants, nciuany, it would take a com plete collapse by Brooklyn to gether with an Incredible finish by either of the two top contenders- Milwaukee or New York to ac complish the miracle. But those wno still recall the late-.sea.son slides of the Dodgers of 1942 and 1951 are convinced nothing is im possible. Win or lose, the Dodgers cer tainly haven't looked like pennant winners since the All-Star break, playing eight games under .500 ball since July 9. Beaten for the third straight lime by Philadelphia yes terday, 6-4, the Dodgers limped home wHh a record of 10 losses in their last 14 games. Their 16', game lead of Aug. 12 over Mil waukee was trimmed to 11 in nine days. The Braves, continuing their battle against huge odds, won their fiflh in a row yesterday, humbling Ihe Chicago Cubs 8-1. and Cincin nati shut out St. oLuis 4-0 behind the four-hit pitching of rookie Don Gross. Rain washed out the scheduled double-header between the Giants and Pirates in Pittsburgh. The 1054 Duke University foot ball team did not score a safety or a field goal. Their opponents didn't either. Chicago's relentless White Sox climbed within half a, game of New York's American League leading Yankee, sweeping a dou ble-header from Detroit 3-0 and 8-2. Righthander Dick Donovan, just three weeks after undergoing an appendectomy, followed a four hitter by Connie Johnson with a well-spaced elght-hltter for his 14th victory In 18 decisions. The Yankees, on a winning skein of their own, dumped Baltimore 6-1. Don Larsen pitched a six-hiU ter. It was th Yankees' 10th vic tory 'in the last 11 starts. " Cleveland's third-place Indians remained one game from the top, walloping Kansas City 9-4 although held to seven hits by loser Al Ditmar. Ten bases on balls, to gether with home runs by Larry Doby and Gene Woodling. helped the Tribe's cause. Woodling, the ex-Yankee, also singled In two other runs. Boston's Red Sox remained very much in the running, vanquishing Washington 4-1 to remain 4'-2 games off the pace. A three-run outburst against loser Chuck Stobbs in the eighth snapped a 1-1 deadlock and gave rookie George Busce his seventh triumph. The slumping1 Dodgers jnsnaged only six hits off winner Herman Wehmeler, who won his 10th for the Phillies with the help of re liefer Jack Meyer. Homers ac counted for all Philadelphia's runs off six Dodger hurlers. Willie Jones hit a grand slammer in the third. Glen Gorbous and Del Emus also homered to give the Phils an early 6-0 lead. The Dodgers made it 6-4, but in the eighth, Meyer, in a relief role, retired three batters with a runner on third and nobody out. The rookie right-hander filled the bases on walks in the ninth but ended the game by getting pinch hitter Don Newcombe on a soft fly. The Dodgers haven't reached the alarming stage yet but old Brook lyn sufferers still haven't forgotten that the Dodgers blew an early August lead of 10'i games over the Cardinals in 1942 and a mid August 13'2-game lead over the Giants nine years later. CLAYTON HANNON SPORTS EDITOR Veteran outfielders Bobby Thorn son and Andy Pafko rapped three hits apiece and Thomson drove in three runs to spsrk the Bravea to victory over the Cubs. Rigtuharxl er Bob Buhl spaced seven hits for his 12th victory. : Outfielder Wally Post drove In three runs with his list home ran and a single In the Reds' vtetarr over the Cardinals., Harvey Haddlx was the victim. Minnie Minoso, with aix hits in nine times at bst in the twin bill, broke up a scoreless pitching duel between Johnson and loser Billy Hoeft when he unloaded hie seventh home run In the sixth in ning of the opener between Detroit and Chicago. Walt Drops ignited a four-run second in the nightcap vith his 17th homer off rookie Jim Bunning. Three Yankee home runs proved the undoing of veteran southpaw Eddie Lopat, making his first Yan kee Stadium start against his for mer mates. Hank Bauer hit his 15th homer in the second. Bill Skowron his 11th snd Mickey Mantle his 32nd in the third. - Jose Santiago, In relief of starter Bob Lemon, was credited with the Cleveland victory. Lemon was tagged for all Kansas City's runs in the second. : Sammy White, wilh a home Tun and double, drove In two of Bos ton's runs against Washington.
