TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1949 Red Sox Defeat Yankees in Hot Game in Which Umpire Has His Warm Session Too; By RALPH RODEN l The possibility was strong today that the nation’s railroads—and not ! New York’s famed subway system— | wili transport the participants i} the 1949 World Series New Yorkers' hopes of a “subw World Series suffered another rude | jolt yesterday when the torrid Bo: ton Red Sox defeated the New Yo! Yankees, 7-6, to spap their 1 place tie and move a game in front| of the .floundering Yanks in the American League race. The dreams of a dime classic were jarred Sunday when the St. Louis Cardinals movad a game and a half in front of the Brookiyn Dodgers by downing Chicago while Brocklyn succumbed to Philadel- phia. Both the Red Zox and the Cards renew their pennant drives on foreign fields today while the Yanks | are at home and the Dodgers idle. The Red Sox, riding a_ten game winning streak, take on the last; place Senators in a night game at| Washington while the Yanks en- tertain the better equipped Phila-) delphia Athletics. The Cards meet | the sixth place Pirates in a night game at Pittsburgh. Joe Dobson (13-11) has been nominated to pitch for the Red Sox against Senator ace Rae Scar- borough (12-11). The Yanks will send Vic Raschi (19-10) against Dick Fowler (14-10). 5 GAMES EACH Both the Red Sox and Yanks! have five games left to play. The two contenders wind up the sea- scn in the Stadium with single games [faturday and Sunday fol- lowing their three game series against Washington and Philadel- phia. The Dodgers return to action to- morrow when they open a tw game set with the fourth place Braves of Boston. DISPUTED PLAY A disputed squeeze play, that climaxed a four-run eighth inning raily gave the Red Sox their triumph over the Yanks Lefore 66,156 paid onlookers. Bobby Doe bunted Johnny Pesky acr with the big run. Doerr dropped the ball down- the tirst line. Tommy Henrich’s throw had Pesky beat but Umpire Bill} Grieve called Pesky sale. He said later the Red Sox runner slid under Yankee catcher Ralph Houk. HOT, NEAR FIGHT The Yanks immediately swarmed around Grieve like a bunch of hor- | nets, claiming that Houk had| blocked off Pesky. Houk, a major. in the Rangers during the war, was| the most enraged of the Yanks. 1 Ellis Kinder, who shut out the Yanks in Boston Saturday, blanked | the New Yorkers in the last two! rounds but an amazing catch by Al Zarilla saved the game in the ninth. | With one down in the home ninth | Henrich whaled a drive to right. Zarilla sprinted to his right, leaped ! while in full stride, caught the drive, tumiled to the ground but held on to the ball. Kinder then walked Yogi Berra but Yank Bauer flied out to end the game. The Red Sox opened the game by scoring three runs in the first in-| ning against ' Tommy Byrne and Fred Sanford. Young Mickey McDermott held the lead until the fourth when the | Yanks moved ahead with a four run rally. McDermott almost re- | ceived his walking papers in the second but Zarilla came up with a | tremendous catch against the rigpt | field stands to rob Johnny Lindell‘ of a three-run homer. No other games were scheduled. i | STANDINGS OF THE CLUBS Pacific Coast League L 8 83 85. 922 92 85 102 84 103 74 113 Hollywood Oakland ...... Sacramento Seattle .» San Diego ...
