WEDNESDAY, AUGUST 15, 1951 TIIE D—\ILY ALASKA bMPIRI JUNEAU, A\L.\QKA | Unheralded Relief Hurler Boosts Trihe Brissie Bails Out Falter- ing Starters in Indian Pennana Race By the Associated Press Lou Brissie is the unheralded cog in the Cleveland Indians’ stirring drive for the American league pen- nant. Brissie is to the Indians what Jtm Page was to the New York in their successful 1947 9 pennant campaigns. But unlike the former gay reliever of the Bombers, Brissie hasn't drawn the headlines. Although the “big four” of Bob Feller, Mike EBarfy Wynn and Bob Lemon hava received most of the credit, Brissic has contributed handsomely to the 2% game lead the Indians enjoy over the Yankees today. The »7-year-old lefthander, seri- ously wounded in Italy during the war, pitched three scoreless in- nings in relief yesierday to gain credit for the Indians 6-5 ten- inning victory over the Detroit Tigers for their 12th straight win. The Yanks kept pace by defeating the Washington Senators, 6-3. The third place Boston Red Sox also won, downing the Philadelphia Ath- letics, 7-4. In the National League, the New York Giants turned back the Brook- 1yn Dodger: the Boston Brave: beat the Philadelphia Phils, 4-2 , and the CI 1 d (h&' St. 4 a The other clubs were idle. Brissie, making his 34th appeart ance for the Indians, gained his third triumph. However, it marked the 12th time he has succ bailed out a faltering now has pitched 10%2. con- e scoreless innings. The lanky southpaw came to the Indians from the Philadelphia Ath- letics in a three-cornered deal with Chicago on April 30. The Indians had to give up Orestes the White Sox to obtain Brissie. At the time Indian Gefieral Man- ager Hank Greenbere was criticized for making the deal. Greenberg said, “We didn't want to give up M 0. He has the chance to become one of the really good ball players of | our time.” Minoso has lived up to Greenberg's | expectations but the work of Brissie has enabled the Indians to go all out for the pennant.
