(By the Associated Press)
Stan Musial on a 23-game hit
! spree. Enos Slaughter in the Big j
Six. No wonder the bounce-back
St. Louis cardinals lead the Na
tional League.
Breaking out of a three-way tie
for first place with a double round
the-clock rout of the New York
Giants, the Cards took charge of the
race yesterday.
The shellshocked Giants, beaten
12 times in their last 15 games,
were unable to provide even token
resistance for the rebounding Cards.
It was 18-4 in the day game and
10- 3 at night in a combined 30-hit
attack that routed Larry Jansen
and Sheldon Jones in the early in
nings.
Beaten? three in a row by Brook
lyn earlier in the week, the Cards
cause looked dark. Now they’re back
in control with three consecutive
pitching gems by the southpaw trio j
of A1 Braxle. Max Lanier and Harry •
Brecheen.
Lanier worked the Giants over in j
the day game. ]
Musial stretched his hitting string
with a double in the afternoon and
two singles at night but the big
guns w'ere Slaughter and Del Rice.
Enos had six hits, three in each,
driving home four. Rice hoisted a
homer, triple, double and single to
drive in six.
The Phillies, one oi three tied for
the lead yesterday morning, drop
ped a peg by splitting with Pitts
burgh. Granny Hamner’s 11th in
ning homer with a man on won the
opener, 3-2, but the Pirates grabbed
the second 4-2, on rookie Bill Mac
Donald’s five-hit pitching.
Draftee Johnny Klippstein won
his first big league game and hit
his first homer for Chicago in it
11- 3 romp over the Boston Braves.
The loss dropped the Braves out of
a first place tie.
Brooklyn’s scheduled tw-iight
night doubleheader at C. ucinnati
was washed over until tonight.
Mize Leads Parade
With Johnny Mize leading the pa -1
rade, the New York Yankees chop- i
ped another half game off Detroit's
American League lead. The Tigers
0-5 winners over Boston, now sport j
a three-game margin over the Yanks
who sunk St. Louis twice, 10-1 and |
4-3.
The burly first baseman, ticketed
for the Pacific Coast League two
weeks ago, continued his batting1
surge with five hits in six trips,
including a game-winning homer
off Ned Garver in the eighth inning
of the second game.
Ed Lopat had a no-hitter in the
opener until Roy Seivers led off the
eighth by hitting his first pitch into
the left field seats.
Red Rolfe, saving his pitchers for
the big series with New York, gave
Dizzy Trout his first start since
June 22 and got away with a victory
over the Red Sox. Trout didn’t last
but neither did rookie Willard
Nixon, the Boston starter.
Bobby Feller made Win No. 201,
a neat four-hit 4-0 shutout of
Philadelphia. Joe Gordon’s 10th
homer off Dick Fowler with a man
on in the eighth wrapped up the
decision for Cleveland.
Washington whipped their old
teammate, Ray Scarborough of the
Chicago White Sox, for the second
night in a row on Sam Dente’s in
field single with two out in the tenth
inning, 5-4.

Losers, Close
Game to Stars
( By the Associated Press)
There may be times when Oak
land's pitching looks rather spotty,
but nobody can say the league
leaders don’t know what to do with
those bats they wave in front of
enemy pitchers.
Yesterday, as many times before
this season, they came into the late,
inning trailing and apparently
beaten. Blit yesterday, as before,
they scored seven runs in three
innings and gained a 7 to 3 dc- j
cision from the Portland Beavers.
Mickey Rocco slammed his 19th
homer in the sixth to give the
Beavers a 3 to 0 lead, but Oakland's
Ray Noble and Lloyd Clm tophcr
also socked homers and George Mei
kovich contributed a triple to Port
land’s undoing. Five of the Oaks’
runs came in the eighth when t
pitcher Roy Hel.ser lost all his stuff, j
Hollywood kept pace three games |
behind the Oaks with a 7 to 6 win
j over Seattle; San Diego downed San |
Francisco, 6 to 5, and Los An-1
"eles dumped Sacramento, 4 to 1.
The Stars got away to a flying 1
tart against Seattle and enjoyed a
i-0 lead until starter Ben Wade !
blew up and was nicked for four!
uns. Lefty Art Shallock came in i
nd damned the flood, despite1
homers by Jack Warren and j
Broadway Bill Schuster.
Hollywood had hoped for a stand- j
out pitching duel tonight between
Seattle ace Jim Wilson, who has i
von 15 straight, and Jack Salveson,
he league’s leader with 12 wins and
illy one loss. Salveson is working
onight but Manager Paul Richards
ays Wilson will try to equal the ;
Pacific Coast League record of 16
■traight tomorrow night. The
■xi.sting record was made in 1909
iy Frank Browning of San Fran
:isco.
Smiling Frank Marino was very
lingy with his hits as the Angels
nade it two in a row over Sacra
mento. The Sacs got only four saf
ties, two of them by Manager Joe
Marty, and were unable to score
until the ninth.
