LEAG. \A(complishwlfire Baseball! Feat-Reminiscent of Former Years By JOE REICHLER Joe McCarthy's blazing Boston jRed Sox were riding hard on the ! American League today after achiev- {ing a baseball feat almost equal to that of the Boston Braves' wonder ‘team of 1914. The unstoppable Red Sox yester- day climaxed a sensational seven- week surge from a dismal seventh the leadership in both Major Leagues. The Sox wrested the No. 1 berth irom the Philadelphia Athletics by defeating the Cleveland Indians, 3~ ger: The rise from 10 games tack to the top was reminiscent of George, Stallings’ miracle Braves of 34 years ago who jumped from the cellar on July 4 to capture the National League flag. On June 2, the Red Sox were wal- lowing in seventh place, having won only 15 games while losing 24. During the 53-day span, Boston have righthander, scattered six hits yes- terday to chalk up his 13th triumph, | four over the Indians. It was his fourth shutout and 14th complete game. Fred Hutchinson eased the A's out to a second game 10-2 triumph over split in their double-header. Joe Coleman blanked the Tigers, 4-0, in the opener. Coleman drove home two runs with bases loaded single to high- Joe DiMaggio cracked out two more home runs, a double and three singles in seven times at bat to| lead the New York Yankees to a ( White Sox 5-3 and 7-3. Both of Joe's | {homers, his 22nd and 23rd, came in | the second game. Washington and the St. Louls [ Browns divided a double-lieader, the | Senators winning the first game 5-1, and the Browns taking the sec- ond, 6-4 in 11 innings. The pace-setting Boston Braves retained their five-game margin in the National League by gaining a. in their twin bill with the} Cardinals in St. Louis. The Cards won the opener 6-5 and led 6-4 after eight innings of the nightcap, ! but ninth inning home runs ty Bob ! Elliott and Jeff Heath, the former | with two on, gave the Braves an 8- € victory. | Danny Murtaugh's grangl slam | home run in the eighth inning gave Pittsburgh Pirates a 7-4 second game victory and a split in their double- header with the second place Brooklyn Dodgers. The Brooks won the opener 6-5. Cincinnati slugged out a pair of decisions over the Philadelphia Phils, 11-8 and 9-2. i ‘The Chicago Cubs spotted the New York Giants a 3-0 lead then came | from behind to defeat Leo Du-| rocher’s men 6-3.

The San Diego slugger was bean- | ed by a Red Adams fast ball yes- | terday after . glouting his 46th round-tripper of the season against Los Angeles. His condition was re- ported good last night. The beaning was witnessed by Graham's mother, Mrs. Joseph Graham of Long Beach. She dashed out on the field, but had to be assisted herself because of her distraught condition. San Diego won the second game, 4-0, behind Xavier Rescigno. The Angels, despite Graham's homer, took the opener, 7-6, in 10 inn- ings. Oakland maintained its half- game lead over San Francisco as all. other Sabbath doubleheaders were divided, Charley Gassaway pitched four-hit shutout for the Oaks’ 5-0 win, and Duane Pillette of Port- land hurled a two-hit 'seven-inn- ing 8-9 job for the Beavers. Rex Cecll won his 13th game in | pitching the cellar-holding Sacra- mento Solons to a 4-3 decision in 10 innings, but San Francisco bounced back for an 8-2 triumph in the closer. Herman Basse twirled Seattle to a 3-2 win over Hollywood after the Stars slammed out a 19-7 de- cision Lt the opener. Butch Mor- an, new Seattle first sacker, poled six hits.
