TUESDAY, JUNE 13, 1950 >P0O ;- ELKS TAME MOOSE WITH 10-6 GAME League Standings Coast Guard Elks Moose The Elks club tamed the Moose nine last night, with the aid of a big seven-run fourth inning, to the tune of 10 to 6. The Elks made 13 hits ‘to the Moose eight. After pitching a full nine inning game Sunday EIks’ pitcher Smith- berg went the route in this seven inning affair. He struck out 12 and issued seven free passes to first base, compared to his Sunday record o! five and five. It seems he needed the .nine innings Sunday to get warmed up for this game. In the third inning he put the Moose down one; two, three on strikeouts for his best inning. The Moose used two pitchers, changing in the fourth ifning from | starter McCagg to Neilson who fin- ished the game. The best inning for | the Moose pitchers was in the sev- | enth when Neilson struck out the second and third batters facing him, with the first batter flying out to centerfielder Pinkerton.

Many of the Yanks now regard he Tigers instead of the Red Sox]| as “the team to beat.” Boston lost; plenty of prestige by dropping nnxr! n a row after rolling up that 29-4 record score in St. Louis last week. Pitching is the big Yankee prob- em. It's the same story in Boston. The difference is that New York swns excess talent that could help} sther clubs. In that category go second base- man George Stirnweiss, catcher Ralph Houk or Gus Niarhos, pitcher Don Johnson and an outfielder. The Yankee pit¢hing sifuation is desperate. Johnson, sidelined by a skin ailment, remained in New York when the club headed west. That left Casey Stengel with seven dalled from Kansas City.
