At the same time, the Portland Beavers made it two straight over San Diego, winning 3 to 2. The loss dropped the Padres a half-game behind Hcllyweod. Elsewhere around the loop, Guy Fletcher held the Sacramento Solons to five hits in pitching Seattle to an 9-3 win. Both clubs ‘are only cne game off the pace. San Francisco rallied around the tight pitehing of Jack Brewer to Leat Los Angeles 6-2, making it three straight for the Seals over the Angels. Jim Baxes, old third baseman, about settled the ball game when he hit one over the left field wall with the tases loaded in the first. Fletcher only gave up one hit to the Sclons until the eighth inning. Then Sacramento parlayed two singles and a double into two runs but it was futile. The Rainiers had all of their eight runs by that time The last two came in the seventh when Al Lyons homered with one aboard. Dino Restelli paced the San Fran- cisco assault. It was his double in the seventh, scoring Ed Murphy and Jackie Tobin, which proved tc be the winning clout.

While rookies Johnny Groth and Jack Graham and teammate Vern Stephens battered the fences, Teddy kad to be content with singles and doubles. Now he's back in the groove. Williams had a big day yesterday with his first homer, a single and three walks for a perfect day against Philadelphia. He drove in five runs during the afternoon’s activities at friendly Fenway Paik. Led by Williams, the Sox thumped the A's, 12-5, for a clean sweep of the two-game set. Now they move on to New York for an important series with the Yankees. It was the fourth straight lozs for the A’s.

The chunky lefthander, supposedly a slow starter in the spring and a great hot weather pitcher, now has won three straight. It was the Yanks' eighth win in 10 starts, Groth and Graham each hit their fourth home runs as the St. Louis Browns whipped Detroit, 9-6. Groth got his with the bases loaded, his second grand slam. Graham smashed his homer with nobody on in the second.
