WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER 15, 1948’ * ) j of . ¥ N 4 BOSTON BRAVES SEEM IN Have Five-Game Lead in Pennant Race in Na- | tionalilia_gue By RALPH RODEN | It looks as if the Boston Braves are in. % With a five-game' lead and only 16 games left to play, the Braves appear unstoppable in the National League today. At the moment it seems that only a major nosadive would deprive the Braves of their first pennant since the “miracle team” of 1914. Sain became the first pitcher in the loop to win 20 games when he | pitched ‘the Braves to a 10-3 vic-| tory over the Chicage Cubs yester day. | The runner-up Pittsburgh Pirates | suifered a severe jolt by dropping a | | 770 4 o — S —— A W— i |G S—— doubleheadey to the third place Brooklyn Dodgers, 8-5 and 7-3. | The Dodgers blasted 27 hits in| sinking the Pirates at Ebtets Field. | The St. Louis Cardinals, beh'nd the three-hit pitching of Harry| (the Cat) Brecheen, blanked the| Phillies, 8-0 in a night game at| Philadelphia and moved into a| tie for third place with Brooklyn.| The Boston Red Sox retained| their two game lead over the New York Yankees in the American League’s pennant chase. The Sox | downed the White Sox, 4-1, in 2! nicht game at Chicago while the]| Yanks brushed off the third place Cleveland Indians, 6-5. Ellis Kinder checked the White| Sox on five blows. | The Yanks came from kehind to nip the Indians, scoring four runs in the seventh inning to overcome a 4-2 deficit. A two-run pinch-hit homer by Charley Celler highlight- ed the uprising. Connie Mack’s fourth place Phil- ade'phia Athletics drubbed the Browns, 12-2, at St. Louis. The Detroit Tigers took a dou- bleheader from the hapless Wash- ing Benators, 2-1 T BASEBALL MYSTERY OROVILLE, Calif, Sept. 15— —An angle in the death of min- or league baseball manager con- tinued to mystify officials today, but a couple of items were clear: 1. He has posed as Julian Wera, representing himself as a former New York Yankee and third base- man for the San Francisco Seals. But the real Julian Wera is in Ro- chester, Minn., operating a food store., 2. Whatever the man’s name really was, he did a good job man- aging the Oroville club in the Far ‘est league, a faxm of the Boston Red Sox. Oroville won the pennant this year. Sheriff-Coroner W. H. Forward said the Oroville manager took an overdose of sleeping pills Monday | after writing farewell notes to ‘his estranged wife. Posing as Wera, he was hired as Oroville’s manager a year ago. § | | | BRAVES WIN AGAIN TODAY BY 5-2 SCORE BOSTON, Sept. 15—M—Lefty ‘Warren Spabn protected the Boston Braves first place lead to- day by keeping nine Chicago Cubs hits. well scattered for a 5-2 vic- tory, his 14th of the season. It was the first time Spahn finished against the Cubs in three starts this year. OTHER GAMES TODAY National League Cincinnati 3; Brooklyn 2 Boston 5; Chicago 2. Pittsburgh 8; New York 3.
