Stan Musial joined the other St. Louis cripples during the loss of Boston's Warren Spahn. Stan suf- fered a cut between two fingers of his left hand, taking a throw from Al Brazle. He will be out for a day or two. Rookie Bob Miller, up from Terre Haute, lifted the Philadelphia Phils into second place—ahead of St. Louis and only a half game behind Brooklyn—with a 4-0 victory over Cincinnati. Folks will have to take the New York Giants seriously if they con- tinue to roll up scores like yester- day’s 13-4 romp over Chicago. Leo Durocher’s Giants have won five in a row.
