ASHINGTON and Philadelphia now are making the fight expected of them, while the New York Yankees, who threatened in the early season games to slug their way to the American League pen- nant, have taken a turn for the worse. While the Huggins whackers aver- aged seven runs a game they were almost unbeatable, but of recent days the scoring power has been much less and the pitchers have proved unabl: to hold their foes in check. Yesterday the Athletics administered the Yankees' third straight trouncing, 5 to 3, although Babe Ruth and Bob Meusel broke through the services of Sammy Gray and Fred Heimach for homers, the Babe's being his fifth of the season. Gray of the Macks was injured in a slide and Bill Wambs- ganss, utility infielder, stopped a bat- ted ball with his nose in practice. Three errors and a bundle of hits in the ninth ining, which accounted for eight runs, gave the St. Louis Browns a victory over Cleveland, 11 to 5. Wallie Schang, in the role of pinch hitter, went to bat twice in the ninth, singling once and getting in front of a pitch on the second occa- sion.
