Surkont Says
Goodbye With
Win for Sols
(By the Associated Press)
Workhorse Max Surkont is no
longer with the Sacramento Solons
today, but he effected his departure
from the Pacific Coast league in
superb fashion indeed.
Surkont packed hts grips last
night to join the Boston Braves,
then bade his adieu to the tail end
Solons by pitching his 18th victory
of the season, a 4 to 1 verdict over
Seattle.
It was Max Surkont night at
Sick’s Stadium, pure and simple.
The 28-year-old right hander fan
ned 10 men, slammed two hits in
three trips, drove in a run and
scored once himself.
Elsewhere, the hostilities pro
ceeded thusly:
Max West and Orestes Minoi-o
powered San Diego’s Padres to their
11th straight, a 7 to 3 triumph over
Portland. San Francisco scratched
out an 8 to 7 decision from pace set
ting Oakland, but almost saw it go
down the drain by way of shortstop
Jackie Conway’s three errors in the
ninth inning. Ralph Hamner settled
down after yielding a bases loaded
homer in the-first frame, and Los
Angeles jobbed Hollywood again, 7
to 4.

Nat'l League
Pennant Race
Tightens Up
(By the Associated Press)
Can Joe DiMaggio do it again?
The Yankee clipper’s dramatic
ninth inning home run in Phila
delphia last night recalls his stirring
deeds of 1949. How he came off the
bench, plagued by injuries, to loosen
a home run flurry that spurred New
York to the American League pen
nant.
Restored to his old No. 4 cleanup
spot in the batting order last night,
DiMaggio responded with a home
run that shaded Philadelphia, 3-2.
It was his first homer and first run
batted in since July 30.
It was an important win for the
Yankees because both Detroit and
Cleveland were rained out. As a re
sult New York gained a half game
on each and now trails the league
leading Tigers by four games.
Boston reeled off its sixth straight
at Fenway Park 7-6, after a 10
inning struggle with Washington.
Brooklyn chewed a full game off
the Phillies’ lead in the National as
thaK race also tightened. By whip
ping Boston, 8-3, while New York
dumped the Phils, 7-4, the Dodgers
moved to within 5 Vi games of first
place.
Red Schoendienst’s 11th inning
single shoved St. Louis home in
front of Cincinnati, 2-1. A throwing
error by Grady Hatton set the
stage for the winning single.
William Ramsdell just missed a
shutout win in regulation time. He
had two out and a 1-0 lead in the
last of the ninth when Del Rice
singled. Chuck Diering ran for Rice
and scored on Happy Jones’ pinch
double.
Pittsburgh staged a four-run first
inning to flatten Chicago’s Walt
Dubiel, 9-3.
