SATURDAY, AUGUST 11, 1945 YANKS UNDER MARSE JOE IN NEW UPSURGE Bengals amTS;na!ors Both Bow as Bombers Break Slump fo Close Gap By Jack Hand (Associated Press Sports Writer) Joe McCarthy's three-week “va- cation” seems to have been just what the doctor ordered to pep up the slumping New York Yankees who have won two in a row to celebrate their skipper’s return and moved back .into the thick of the American flag race. Gettel did the tossing yesterday and everybody except Frank Cro- setti and Oscar Grimes did the hitting' in a 15-blow onslaught against Cleveland. Detroit stumbled before Boston, 9-0, as Gandy Hex- lin, another discharged service- man, broke a five-game losing streak with his first big show triumph. Chicago continued to make life miserable for the high class folks up front by humbling Washington on Thornton Lee's six-hit effort. Milt Byrnes’ homer in the eleventh inning of a 14-13 second game, fol- lowing Nelson Potter's five-blow, 2-1 job in the first, enabled St. Louis to sweep both ends of a doubleheader from Philadelphia. In the other circuit, Al Javery and Don Hendrickson teamed up on the Chicago Cubs 'to trim Hank Borcwy, with Tommy Holmes driv- ing in both Boston runs. St. Louis had another big inning in the Polo Grounds, scoring four in the third, cn homers by Ken O’'Dea and Red Schoendienst, to topple New York's Bill Voiselle. Brooklyn gained a full lap on the Cubs by routing Cincinnati for the fourth straight time, Pittsburgh | split with the Phillies in a twi-| night double, the Pirates scoring 10-2 for Fritz Ostermueller and the Phils grabbing the finale be- hind Oscar Judd. FRIDAY SCORES (By Assoclated Press) BEAVER MARGIN IN PCL IS LOPPED 10 FIVE GAMES Rainiers Take Third Win in Row as Seattle Fling- ers Dominate (By Associated Press) Seattle’s Rainiers, undaunted by Portland’s consistent leadership in the Pacific Coast League, were within five games of the top teday Beavers. All season the pace-setters have capitalized on the circuit’s best pitching staff. Six of the Portland hurlers are listed among the first 15. But, for three nights in a row, the mound and out-tossed the Beavers’ best. Yesterday it was Righthander Joe DeMoran who conquered Southpaw Syd Cohen. Now it is up to Don Pulford, Portland’s top pitcher, to see if he can stop the rampaging Rainiers. His chore will be none the easier if the epidemic of errors spreads in the Beaver camp. Last night they made five miscues. PRSI R el B AP SPORTS ROUNDUP RYE, N. Y., Aug. 11— The odds are strictly against its happening, but tennis fans are pulling for Sid- ney B. Woed, Jr., and Frank Shields |to upset the dope in the Eastrn Grass Court Tournament semi-finals today. Yesterday, the lanky Shields eliminated Elwood Cooke, 7-5, 6-3.
