D. Cities PARMELEE WINS 2-1 VERDICT IN47-INNING DUEL WITH HUBBELL, Bill Lee Blanks Dodgers, 1-0; Lefty Gomez Humbles Indians, 6-1 BOSOX REGAIN FIRST PLACE Mound Feats Top Major League | Show; Pirates Nose Out Phillies, 10-9 (By the Associated Press) When this major league baseball season rolls down to the world series, the experts may point back to Wed- nesday's games in explanation of the| final result. Most significant in a day of ex- traordinary happenings was Hank | Greenberg's collision with young Jake Powell of the Washington Senators, in which the big Detroit first base- man fractured his left wrist. Thursday the Tigers were in the desperate position of having to an- swer the question that has been thrown at them for the past two sea- sons: What will happen to your club when luck breaks wrong? York May Be Recalled Manager Cochrane was expected to recall from Milwaukee Rudy York, the young first baseman who looked so good in the Tiger camp this spring when Greenberg was sulking in New York’s Bronx waiting for the man- agement to raise his salary. i ee WEDNESDAY’S STARS Letty Gomez, Yanks — Tumbled the Indians from first to third place in the American by letting hem down with three hits. Bill Lee, Cubs, and Van Lingle Mungo, Dodgers — They pitched four-hitters against each other, former winning 1-0, and latter losing when his hit, driving in ty- ing run, hit a runner on base and retired the side. Pete Appleton, Senators — Gave Tigers only two hits and won, 7-3. Rick Ferrell, Red Sox—His single with bases loaded drove Red Sox to a win over Chicago and put his team in first place. Lloyd Waner, Pirates—His dou- ble paved the way for Pirates’ winning rally over Phils. Dusty Rhodes, Atheltics—Shut out the Browns for eight innings and finally won 7-4. LeRoy Parmelee, Cards—Pitched six-hit 17-inning ball game to beat Giants 2-1. Outstanding among superlative pitching performers in other gameS/tome runs—Ott, Giants, and Klein, was Leroy Parmelee’s 17-inning, six- hit, 2-1 victory for the Cardinals over the New York Giants. In picking the Cards and the Cubs to battle it out for this year’s National League pen- nant, the experts have agreed that the success or failure of Parmelee would be the success or failure of the Cards. Wednesday’s performance sueald throw some light on the ques- tion. Though he lost, Carl Hubbell gave the Cards only 11 hits in the 17 frames. Appleton Hurls Two-Hitter Other pitching performances of the day included Pete Appleton’s two-hit 1-3 victory for Washington over the Tigers. Bill Lee’s four-hit, 1-0 win over the four-hit pitching of Van Lingle Mungo of the Brooklyn Dodg- ers; and Lefty Gomez's three-hitter over the Cleveland Indians, which dropped the Tribe from first to third in the American League. The score of this one was 6-1. While so many extraordinary things were stealing the show, Joe Cronin’s Boston Red Sox defgated the Chicago White Sox, 8-7, and regained first Place in the American League. The Phillies lost to the Pirates in the 11th inning 10 to 9.

GREAT (By ed Associated Press) BALANCE AT IMPACT OBTAINED BY KEEPING LEFT HEEL wi » April 30.—()—Mickey Cochrane, pilot of the world cham- pion Detroit Tigers, Thursday faced one of his toughest managerial prob- lems—how to win ball games without Hank Greenberg. The lank first baseman—voted the most valuable player in the American League last year—will be out of the lineup for at least a month with the wrist fracture he suffered in yester- day’s game with the Washington Na- tionals. Admitting his team sustained a set- back worse than a string of losses when Jake Powell, fleet Washington centerfielder, collided with Green- berg’s outstretched arm, Cochrane added optimistically that the club's pitching and hitting would keep it near the top of the league. Mickey said he was undecided whether to continue the combination of Marvin Owen at first base and Englist at third, or to recall Rudy York, who hit well with the Bengals in 5) training, from the minor league to which he was farmed. Greenberg’s injury came at a time when Detroit had won five straight games and was fast moving toward top position. The team lost Wednes- day, 7 to 3.
