Rice had darted from the hase with the smack and was an easy_vic- tim of Wamby's on the line. ~Then a short heave to Joe Harris killed off Leibold. Johnuson, in the meantime, was sauntering toward the plate, and Harris had plenty of time for his throw to Val Picinich to complete the three-way retirement ‘That triple play, though. failed to save the game for the Red Sox, al- though for a time it appeared that it had.

It as their last are-up. though, while the Nationills went on to lambaste Howard Ehmke, who hurled the seventh and eighth rounds and hammer Curtis Fullerton for more markers in the ninth. The first game was settled in the fourth inning, when the Red Sox staged one of their great seven-runs- after-two-are-out rallies Bach club had scored once before this big round, in which Joe Martina was a victim of hard knocks. The National hurler filled the bases, when he gave up two hits with a pass sandwiched be- tween, then proceeded to fan Fergu- son and Flagstead. but Wamby's stroll forced a counter home, Veach's double knocked in two more, and Joe Harrls' pass again loaded the sacks. Boone quickly unloaded them with a homer into the bleachers. Byron Speece then was hustled to the hill, but gave way to a pinch hitter when the Nationals got fresh with Al Fer- guson in the eighth. The rally was nipped by Jack Quinn, who finished on the mound for the Red Sox, while Paul Zahniser did the last hurling for the Nationals. The series was to be ended today with Warren Ogden opposing Bill Plercey on the slab. Tonight the Na- tionals will entrain for Washington, where they meet the Athletics tomor- row.

Lelbold made the best catch of the game when he went to the crowd line and grabbed Joe Harris' liner in the sixth. Nemo tumbled over a pea- nut vender's basket, but clung to the sphere.
