Tri-Cornered
Feud Remains
Indians Have Toughest
Road-Yanks See Small
Cloud in Their Skies
i
By the Associated Press
The New York Yankees, Cleveland
Indians and Boston Red Sox resume
their three-cornered battle for the
American League pennant today
after a welcome one-day respite.
Cleveland, trailing the pace-set
ting Yankees by four percentage
points, has the toughest road to
travel. The Indians open their final
eastern swing of the year in Phila
delphia with a twi-niglit double
header with the pesky Athletics.
Indians Hit Trail
Including the twin-bill with the
A’s, the Indians are charted tc
play 13 games on the road before
returning home for two single games
against Detroit on the last two days
of the season.
Thus Manager AI Lopez’ Tribe
is confronted with the difficult
task of winning the pennant on
the road, a feat seldom accom
plished.
Meanwhile, the Yankees, who play
16 of their remaining 19 games at
Yankee Stadium, entertain the last
place St. Louis Browns in a double
header.
The only cloud in the Yankee pic
ture is that the Bombers are booked
to play the third-place Red Sox
eight games during the last ten
days of the season. If the Indians
enjoy a successful tour, they could
slip home first while the Red Sox
and Yankees are at each other's
throats.
The Red Sox, 5!4 games behind,
clash with the fifth place Detroit
Tigers in Boston while the one
two teams are engaged in twin
bills.
Bob Feller (22-7) and Mike Garcia
(19-11) are scheduled to go for
Cleveland against the A's.
Leaders Battle
The Yankees and Indians clash
in a two game series at the Stadium
beginning Sunday. After the big
series the Indians invade Boston
for a pair of games and then head
west.
Meanwhile, the Brooklyn Dodgers
resume their drive for the National
League pennant by engaging the
Reds in a night game at Cincinnati.
The Dodgers are 5V- games ahead
of the runner-up New York Giants.
The Giants take on the red hot
Cardinals in a twi-night bill at St.
Louis. The Cards have won 13 out
of their last 14 starts.
Governor's Cup
Series
Begins Tonight
Rainiers Entertain
Angels; Stars Host to
Beavers-All for $20,000
By the Associated Press
The Pacific Coast League base
ball season is over, officially, but the
players are still going through the
motions, with $20,000 at stake.
The playoff series starts tonight
in Seattle and Hollywood. Los
Angeles provides the opposition
for the pennant-winning Seattle
club and Hollywood entertains
Portland. The winners of these
two series of two-out-of-three will
engage in a final best-of-five
series.
Los Angeles, which finished third
in the standings, won only eight
games against Seattle this year
while losing 15, but one of the late
season victories was- a no-hitter
thrown by Warren Hacker, who may
tart on the hill tonight for Stan
•lack’s club. Manager Rogers
lornsby of Seattle has nominated
farold (Skinny) Brown. If Hacker
jesn’t start, Bill Moisan will get
ge nod. Hacker’s record is 8-15;
Jpisan’s 10-8, and Brown’s 16-6.
Second place Hollywood shoots
ojs ace, Ben Wade, who won nine
straight, and finished the sea
son with 16-6. Portland, which
finished in fourth place, will use
Chick Pieretti (18-13). Hollywood
beat Portland 16 times during the
season and lost eight.
Seattle won $10,000 for winning
the pennant. The winner of the
final playoff series gets another
$10,000; the runnerup $5,000, and
the other two clubs $2,500 each.
