WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 19, 1945 CARDS KEEP GRIM GRASP ON CHANCES Both Major Leaders Lose Ground Yesterday-Bar- rett Shades Passeau (By The Associated Press) ST. LOUIS — Sportsman’s Park housed its largest night turnout of the Cardinals’ season, 22,174, (o] watch the Birds make their big bid for the flag last night., ! They weren't disappointed, Southworth's gang overcame a t! run advantage the Cubs punched through the makeshift infield in the first inning and came on to win. Whitey Kurowski drove home all three runs. Charley “Red” Barrett, the fellow who was “thrown in” in the d that sent Mort Cooper to Bosto: hung up his twenty-second victory in last night's 3-2 shade of the Bruins' Claude Passeau. That's 10 more than Barrett ever won in the majors before and more than he ever snared, since he left Muskogee in 1937. Baseball followers regard the Red Birds a better bet to catch Chicago than Washington is to close the gap on Detroit even though the Tigers’ lead is only a game and a half after yesterday's 12-5 loss to the Nats. The Senators are running cut of games with only five to go and no more with the Bengals. The Detroit-Washington series finale was a nightmarish ball game, played on the muddy turf of Grif- fith Stadium. Dizzy Trout was driven to cover in the first inning when the Sen- ators scored four runs but, after they had added another in the third, the Tigers flattened Walt Masterson with five to tie in the sixth. The Nats then opened up on George Caster, Hal Newhouser and Zeb on for bundles of four in the seventh and three in the eighth to ice it. Caster was charged with his f loss since joining Detroit and Dutch Lecnard, the third of four Wash- ington tossers, picked up the winn- ing check. | | [ | | President Truman (left) receives Senator A.
