PAGE SIX MUSIAL IS KEEPINGUP SLUG FEATS By JOE REICHLER (Associated Press Sportswriter) If Stan Musial isn't the greatest hitter in baseball today, then his figures are mighty deceptive. At that, some of his slugging feats this season have been almost unbe- lievable. One look at Musial’s sky-scraping 467 batting mark and it is easy to understand why the St. Louis Car- dinals are in second place only a| half length behind the pace-setting Philadelphia Phils. The Cardinal ace smacked a single, double and triple yesterday to lead St. Louis to an 8-7 triumph over the Cincin- nati Reds. He drove in a run and scored twice, Musial now has hit safely in all but two of the 19 games he’s played. One hifless game can be discounted | because hé appeared only as a pinch hitter. Red Munger was the winher, al-! though he nearly blew. an early 8-1 lead. The Reds came back steadily, | leaving the potential tying and win-| ning runs on the bases in the ninth | inning when Al Brazle retired Red Stallcup for the last out. Hopp Has Good Day Johnny Hopp, veteran Pittsburgh first baseman, enjoyed the best bat- ting day of his major league career as the Pirates swept both ends of a doubleheader from the Cubs in Chicago, 6-5 and 16-9. Hopp col- lected six hits in six times at bat in the second game. He smashed two home runs, drove in three runs and scored three times. In all, the Pirates registered 21 hits off six pitchers to win the sec- ond game in a breeze. The six-game winning streak of the Phillies went by the boards| when the New York Giants won 4-3 in the opener of a doubleheader in Philadelphia. The Phils came from behind a 6-1 deficit to forge ahead, 9-7, at the end of eight innings of the nightcap. The game was halted at| this point by the Pennsylvania cur- | few law. Under new National| League rules, it will be resumed from that point on when the two| teams meet again in Philadelphia. | Until then, the game will not figure | in the standings. 5 Runs by Cooper Walker Cooper continued his heavy hitting since joining Boston, but he could not prevent the Brook- lyn Dodgers from gaining a 6-4 triumph over the Braves. Cooper,| who drove in five runs against the| Dodgers Saturday with a homer and double, collected another four-bag- ger as well as a pair of singles in| four times at bat. Warren Spahn,| Boston's ace lefthander, however,; was not up to par. Lefty Hal Newhouser, long the kingpin of Detroit’s pitching staft,, ran into heavy going in his first| start as the St. Louis Browns tamed | the Tigers, 7-3. The New York Yankees remained a half-game behind the American League leading Tigers when the vis- iting Philadelphia Athletics over- came a 7-1 deficit to edge them out, 9-8. Big Walter Dropo smacked two home runs in each game of a doubleheader with the Washington Senators. His fifth four-bagger with one on gave Mel Parnell his fourth victory with an 8-1 decision. His sixth round tripper, with two one, was hardly enough as the Nats went on a 18-hit rampage to win, 10-5. Chicago and Cleveland divided a doubleheader, the’ White Sox the opener 3-2 and the Indians the sec- ond, 3-1.
