FRIDAY, JULY 30, 1948 THE DAILY ALASKA EMPIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA HURLERS OF | GIANTS IN | NEW ACTION Three Strai_g—hi Shutouts Made-Starters Finish | Without Relief By JACK HAND What happened to the New York Giants’ pitching staff? Spiders spin cobwebs in the Polo Grounds bullpen. Starters finish without relief. The strange situations has ex- isted for almost a week. Three straight shutouts by Larry Jensen, Clint Hartung and Dave Koslo have left the National League reeling. Seven complete games in eight pitching starts have lifted the club past the St. Louis Cardinals into third place. Koslo, particularly, has come into his own in recent days. Two straight no-run jobs, including yes- terday's 5-0 effort against Cin-' cinnati, stamp him as a most im-| portant factor in the club’s pen-! nant hopes. Brooklyn clubbed the Cardinals, 9-6, perhitting New York to take over third place. Neither club gain-| ed on front-running Boston which edged Pittsburgh 2-1. The Braves’ lead remains intact at 5% games. It was the 12th vietory in 16] games for the Brooks since Burt! Shotton returned as manager. Bill Boiselle, who flopped with the Giants after a brilliani fresh- man season, collected win No. 11 for Boston. The Phillies made it two out of three under Manager Eddie Sawyer, subduing Chicago, T-4. Pitcher Jack ‘Kramer and Rookie! Bill Gocdman got into the home run act for the first time this| season as Boston swamped De- troit 8-1, in the only American i League game. : As a result, the Red Sox opened up a half game lead over the idle Philadelphia A’s on the! strength of Kramer's 10th straight | pitching success. > — SUNDAY'S BB GAME| WILL NOT BE PLAYED, Losing another game to the weatherman, the three-time post-i poned Legion-Moose baseball game was called again last night due to the rain.

I st STARS SLUG OUT OAKS IN 3RD STRAIGHT By BILL BECKER If there's one Coast League club that can beat Oakland at the sluc- ging geme, it's Hollywood. The Stars, in fact, did it a taird straight time last night—9 to 1. With a 14-hit blast the movietown lads handed the faltering Oaks their seventh loss in eight starts. Hollywood, generally short oh the pitching side, got a six-hit job irom big Pinky Woods. The game brought about two ties in the standings. Oakland was forced to share second place with Los Angeles, which whipped San Francisco, 4-1. Hollywood moved up even with Seattle in fifth posi- tion as the Rainiers lost to Port- land, 6-0. Los Angeles' Dewey Adkins won a hurling duel from Con Demp- fanned 13 batters and allowed only seven hits. Old Tommy Bridges, the little man with the big curve, never had it working better than last night.', The veteran pitched Portland to easy victory, checking Seattle with three hits, all singles, and strik- ing out 10. He pitched hitless ball | The Be: clustered three runs in the first frame and repeated in the sixth to pin defeat on Bob/ Hall, who gave up nine hits. Port- land took a 2-1 series lead. | Sacramento made it three in a row over San Diego with a 1-0 vic- tery before the Padres bounced back with a 9-7 decision in a twin | bill.
