MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 10, 1945 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE-—JUNEAU, ALASKA NATS PRESS CLOSE UPON TIGER PACE Capital City Club Trims De- froiters’ Lead to Single Length (By The Associated Press) The hectic American League flag race entered the final three ‘weeks of the season with the first-place Detroit Tigers only one game ahead of the persistent W; ators following yesterday's double triumph by the Nats and a victory and tie by the Bengals. Mickey Haefner, sturdy — little scuthpaw, had little trouble annex- ing his sixteenth victory in an cpening game triumph for Wash- ington over the White Sox. Santiago Ullrich had to come to the rescue of his fellow Latin el- bower, Alex Carrasquel, in the nightcap to eke out a 5-4 decision for Ossie Bluege’s men. The Tigers also were forced to stage late inning rallies to van- qquish the Boston Red Sox 6-3 in the first, and obtain a 3-3 11- inning tie in the second. Catcher Paul Richards was the whole show | for the Bengals in the opener. His three doubles socked in five of the six runs including three in the ninth, and he scored the other himself. The feverish National title chase remained at a stale- mate when the top-perched Chi- cago Cubs and the second-rung St. Louis Cards each swept their twin bill, leaving the Bruins still three and a half games in front. wAMES SUNDAY (American League) Detroit, 6-3; Boston, 3-3.
