Games Up After
Woodling Socks One I
I5y llic Associated Press
Gene Woodling, 29-year-old out- i
fielder of the New York Yankees, |
is warring a one man drive to pre
vent the Cleveland Indians from
winning the 1951 American League
Pennant.
Woodling, a native Ohioan and
one time member of the Tribe, put
the Yankees back into the thick of
the fight last night as he poled a j
two-run two-out homer in the sev- j
enth inning off Early Wynn to lead
the Bombers to a 2-0 triumph. The
conquest moved the Yanks to within
two games of the Indians.
Woodlings dramatic noraer was
his fifth decisive four-bagger
against the Indians. It also was
his third off Wynn, each blow
coming exactly one month apart.
The payoff homer, struck before
71,768 fans, largest night game
crowd of the season, overshadowed
some brilliant pitching by Stubby
Overmire and Joe Ostrowski, ob
scure lefthanders of the Yanks.
Other American League games
saw the Chicago White Sox edge
the Boston Red Sox, 3-2, the St.
Louis Browns defeat the Philadel
phia Athletics, 5-3 and the Wash
ington Senators clubbed the Detroit
Tigers, 10-7.
In the National League, the
Brooklyn Dodgers nipped the Chi
cago Cubs; the New York Giants
beat the St. Louis Cardinals, 6-5,
the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated
Philadelphia, 5-1, and the Boston
Braves took a twi-night double
header from Cincinnati, 5-1 and
2-1.
Ralph Brance blanked the Cubs
on three hits and fanned ten as
Brooklyn retained its ?' • came lead
over the Giants. Jackie Robinson
drove in Pee Wee Reese with th?
lone run in the first inning.

Stars Lose
Top Batter
In Mishap
Schmees Knocked Hors
de Combat-Seattle
Up Six Games
By the Associated Press
Hollywood’s hope of catching Se
attle in the Pacific Coast league pen
nant drive took another nose dive
today with the shelving of George
Schmees, key personality in the
Stars’ offense.
Schmees, Hollywood’s leading bat
ter with a .330 average and 26 hom
ers, fell heavily to the ground last
night while fielding a pop fly in
the eighth inning of the game with
Seattle. The Stars lost, 5-1.
Schmees was immediately
X-rayed for a possible chipped
shoulder point, an injury which
would bench him for the rest of
the season. Even if it is only a
bruise, it would still render
Schmees temporarily hors de
combat at a time when his potent
bat is needed in every game.
The mishap occurred in the same
inning that Hollywood center fielder
Dino Restelli let Jim Rivera’s line
drive bounce off his glove for a three
base error.
Anyway, the Rainiers now hold
a six-game bulge on the Holly
woods with only 18 games remain
ing on the schedule.
Portland moved into a third place
tie with Los Angeles by splitting a
double header with Oakland while
the Angels were succumbing by 4-1
to San Diego.
The Beavers beat the Oaks, 7-3,
in the first game, but dropped the
finale, 14-2, in a walkaway which
found the Oaks racking up seven
runs in the first inning.
In the other contest, San Fran
cisco edged Sacramento, 6-5, by
staving off a ninth inning uprising
by the Solons. It was the first
triumph by the Seals this year in
nine games at Sacramento.
