White Sox
Shows 'Em
Shades of 1919? Can the 1951 Chi
cago White Sox duplicate the feat
of their predecessors of 32 years
ago? And we don’t mean ’’throw’
the world series.
The similarity between the twc
clubs is striking. Both finished in
sixth place the previous campaign
Both began the new season under
new leadership. Both were picked to
finish deep in the second division
And both got off to flying starts.
The 1919 Sox, ably piloted by
Freshman Manager Bill (Kid)
Gleason, went on to win the pen
nant. Can the ’51 Sox, under the
leadership of Newcomer Paul Rich
ards, do the same?
Richards’ astonishing athlete)
need only to win tonight and to
morrow in Philadelphia to complete
a clean sweep on their rampaging
tour through the eastern badlands
Last night they whipped the Sen
ators in Washington for the third
straight time. 9-8. That made it six
victories in a row, nine of 11 on
the road this year, and 18 win)
against nine defeats for the season
Yesterday’s triumph kept the club
in second place, two lengths in back
of the defending champion Yanks,
who beat the St. Louis Browns, 6-1
Boston’s Red Sox tamed the Detroit
rigcrs, 6-3, to move past Washing
ton into fourth place, a half game
behind the Bengals. Cleveland clip
ped the Philadelphia Athletics, 6-2.
in a night affair.
In the limited National League
action, front running Brooklyn out
scored the Pirates, 17-8, in Pitts
burgh and the Boston Braves
thrashed the Cardinals, 7-2, to dis
place St. Louis in the third slot.
Rain forced the postponement of
contests between New York and the
Cub; in Chicago, and Philadelphia
and the Reds in Cincinnati.
A three-run White Sox rally in
the ; eventh, featured by Nelson Fox
home run, overcame a six-run Wash
ington assault in the fifth to win for
Relief Pitcher Harry Dorish.
Ailie Reynolds pitched a four
hitter against the Browns.
Seven home runs highlighted the
Brooklyn-Pittsburgh slugfest. Gil
Hodges, Dodger first baseman, hit
two, one with the bases loaded. Hi)
