HOME RUNS: PUSH OBSERVATIONS: FROM. om JUNIOR BASEBALL YANKS AND €ARDS FURTHER. AHEAD: — ==, , whether the post-championship: DODGERS’ WALLOP CUBS: series will be played out: or not! TIE BEES:POR SECOND PLACE; BOSOX: PLASTER’ CHISOX, 18-4 (Special to The Cittzen) NEW YORK, May 17.—New York Yankees and St. Louis Cardinals bettered their percent+ age in their respective league yesterday with the aid of home runs. Collecting only eight: hits, the Yanks downed St, Louis Browns, 7 to 5. Gircuit’ clouts by Babei Dahlgren, George Selkirk and Bill Dicxey accounted for six of Murderers’ Row’s seven runs: Kramer went the route for the losers. Coming from: behind, the Red- birds were able to eke out’a vic- tory over New. York Giants, 7-6. Johnny Mize, Ducky Wucky Med- wick and J. Browr practically brought defeat to the New York- ers as each poled a four-bagger. Unlike the Yanks, the Cards col- lected a total of 15 safeties but miscuecd three times. Despite the fact the Giants. got’ only seven bingles, Ray Blades, manager, sent in four moundsmen to check the losers. St. Louis now holds a game and a half lead, the same as the Yanks. Boston Red Sox completely routed Chicago White Sox yester- day. Amazzing a total of 19 safe blow—everv member on the team gettirg at least one—the Bosox downed the CHisox, 18 to 4. Rookie pitcher Rich held the op- position in check as he hung up his third victory. ! Cincinnati Reds and Boston Bees are now tied for second place in the National League as a result of a 4-1 win by the Red- legs over the Baked Bean boys. Lee Grissom bested Turner in a piteher’s duel. Grissom allowed but seven bingles. Cleveland Indians downed Phil- adelphia Athletics, 8 to 3. Both clubs collected the same number of hits—eight. Brooklyn Dodgers overwhelm- ed Chicago Cubs, 12-2, behind four-hit pitching by rookie Wyatt. the Dedgers scored seven runs in the very first inning. Aft- er te game was practically lost, pilot Hartnett sent in Dizzy Dean for his first appearance on the mound this season. Dean quelled the uprizing and pitched three- hit scorciess ball for the five in- nings he worked. Tommy Bridges won his fifth game of the season yesterday, a 6-2 victory over Washington Sen- ators. He kept. the Nats’ nine hits well scattered, as his team- matés/pouinded), Krakauskas’ for a baker’s dozen. “THE BLEACHERS “By. L. MILIAN BASEBALL COMMISSIONERS.

The answer is ves.and the individual is Fidelio Lopez, former Pirate shortstopman, a newcomer to baseball and a promising: young- ster. Give this kid a few lessons on how to hit and before long we'll have an infielder whos will go places. WATCH SEAFOOD GRILL BOYS in the next league! The club will be a menace for, the pennant. They have two of the best little pitchers in town in the persons of Harry (Swifty)’ Wick- ers and‘ Frank (Paneho) Salinero. WHY FIDELIO LOPEZ will- ingly requested his release from the Pirates’ crew. can’t: be figured out by local’ baseball fans. In playing with the boys of “El Bar- rio de Gato”, tie kids has a nice chance to improve. Lopez has signed‘ up’ witht the: weakest club in the league, Blue Sox.
