Indians at
'Or Else'.
Stage in Race
18-Game Stand Will
Probably Mark Fate
For Second-Placers
By the Associated Press
The Cleveland Indians, favorites
in many_ quarters to end the two
year reign of the New York Yan
kees as American League champions,
are nearing the make-or-brcak
phase of the pennant race.
Following their current brief home
stand, the Indians embark on a
short road trip and then return
home Aug. 20 for an 18 game stay
that in all probability will decide
their fate.
The Indians, trailing the pace
setting Yankees by a half game
today, must clean up on their
long home stand. It provides the
Indians with their best oppor
tunity to take command of the
race for upon its completion they
take off on a 16-game swing
that includes slops in every other j
American League ball park.
Mike Garcia, husky righthander,
pitched the Indians to within a
half game of the Yanks last night
as he turned back the St. Louis
Browns, 5-1, on a neat four-hitter.
The Yanks were idle. In other
American League games the third
place Boston Red Sox bowed. 7-4,
to the Philadelphia Athletics and
the Chicago White Sox nipped the
Detroit Tigers, 2-1, in 13 innings.
The Red Sox now trail by 4’_- games
an<J the White Sox by CVi.
■ • in <he Nation's! League, the
Philadelphia Phillies took a twi
light dcuMeheader frcm lhe Bos

: Kings. the Chicago Qgjbs .dowMcd.
IKe Cincinnati Reds, 4-1. and the
St. Louis Cardinals swamped the
Pittsburgh Pirates, 1C-7. The New
York Giants and Brooklyn Dod
gers were rained cut.
Garcia blanked the Erov.ns on
two scratch hits until, the ninth
when Jie lost his shutout. Garcia
helped his own cause with a three
run homer in the sixth.
The A’s came from behind lo
beat the Red Sox. They scored twice
in the sixth on triples by Elmer
Valo, Hank Majeski and p, single by I
Wally Moses to take a 5-4 lead.
The A’s added single runs in the j
eighth and ninth to clinch it.
Rookie Jim Busby singled home
Red Robinson from second base
with Chicago's winning run in the
13th at Detroit. Robinson homered
for the other Chicago run in the
second.
Robin Roberts posted his 15th
victory for the Phils in the opener
against Boston. He allowed the
Braves five hits.
