It happend to the Pirates and Cubs this time, Pittsburgh is now in first posi- tion, in a virtual tie, however, with the Windy City-bunch, being only seven points in the‘lead, By right of games won, the Gubs i should have the top rung, having won a half-game more than the Bues. Nevertheless, the percent- age is based on wins and losses, and.the Cubs have lost two more than the nine from the city of many factories, which gives the Buccaneers their slim lead, The Cards pulled up closer in |the race yesterday, also, by de- ‘feating the Giants. The St. Louis jboys are 4 game behind the Cubs ‘and only a half a game away from the Bucs. The Giants remained ‘in fourth place, The Brooklyn Dodgers went to victory over the Chicago Cubs in a 12-inning game, 5 to 4, whereby they tumbled the Bruins out of the lead. e Charley Root and Ray Lucas started on the mound as oppon- ents in the hurling department, but before the finish the aces of the respective staffs, Lon War- neke and Van Mungo, were called in to wind up the stirring. duel that developed as Hack Wilson smashed a pinch home? with one out in the Brooklyn half of the ninth inning to tie the score.

The St. Louis Cardinals went to vietory over the New York Giants, 7 to 4, largely because of the effective pitching of Paul Dean, “Dizzy’s” kid brother, and the hitting of Joe Medwick. The latter broke up a see-saw battle between the teams by clouting a triple with the bases full in the ninth.
