Chicago's hold on st place continued at five games r the Cor: One Sherifft Blake handcuffed the Robins with five hits as his mates whitewashed Brooklyn for their twelfth shutout, 3 to 0. In the suc- ceeding fr: however, McWeeny eased Wrigley's henchmen down with five safeties for a 6-to-1 verdic Pittsburgh pummeled the Giants in the opening melee by 9 to 1, holding an eightrun carnival in the seventh inning to wipe away the efforts of Rogers Hornsby's twenty-first homer and one by Terry. The New Yorkers went hack for the nighteap, Grimes limiting the Buccancers to five hits, two of which were mammoth pokes by Paul Waner and Smith. The score 5 10 2. Like the Cubs, the | Pirates split evenly in the four-game tilt and trekked to Brooklyn, where they hoped to make a_noticeable ad- vimce before running the Bancroftian {&antlet at Boston. Kent Greenfield handed out only a pair of singles as Boston took the world champs into camp in the first part of a twin program by 6 to 1, but behind Pitcher Sherdell the Cards made off with the afterplece by the same score, Cincinnati bumped the Phillies off twice by b to 3 in 10 innings and 1 to 0, Red Lucas holding Philadelphia to five hits in the shutout. Blankenship staved off a squelching for the White Sox by deefating the Yanks in the fourth and final clash of the series by 3 to 2. Lou_Gehrig broke loose with home run No. 39 in the ninth, his first in 10 days, giving him a jump of one on Babe Ruth. Rube Walberg came through with a timely single in the eighth inning to drive in two runners for a 5-to-3 Phila- delphia triumph over the Indians, ov | place W | Philadelnhia.. making it four out of five for the Ath letics. Walberg fanned seven batters. A double victory over the Red Sox by 5 to 2 and 14 to 7 pushed the Ben- gals to within one game of the second- ingtons. It also gave the Detroiters nine in a row. The Red Hose worked a triple play in the eighth inning of the second| game when Fothergill lined to Myer, who tossed to Regan, doubling Heil mann at second, and on a relay to Todt Manush was caught off first.
