four-run rally in the third gave - the NeW York Yankees a 5-4/ win over the Chicago White Sox yesterday in a scrap that saw. Joe DiMaggio hit safely in his | 55th straight game, New York, its victory run stopped at, 14 col ive games the day ‘be- fore, thus took the series from | the Chisox, three to one, DiMag- | <i collected a single and dou-. le. Buck Newsome hung up his 8th triumph of the year when 2 SOFTBALL ND ney McCosky’s homered in the seventh to provide a 3-2 margin of victory for the Detroit Tigers over the Philadelphia Athletics. Newsom held the A’s in check with a seven-hit performance. Joe Dobson, limiting — the Cleveland Indians to four safe-; ties, salvaged.tor the Boston Red Sox one of the four-game series with the .Tribe. The Bosox, sparked by Lou Finney’s two- run cireuit clout, defeated the Indians, 6-2. Before the second largest crowd of the season at Ebbetts Field, the Brooklyn Dodgers over- whelmed the Chicago Cubs twice. With Curt Davis handing out just four hits, the Dodgers got to a pair of Bruin moundsmen; for seven safeties and a 7-0 win in the first game. They settled the issue early in the” nightcap, shelling Paul Errickson from the } mound with a four-run_ blast in the very first innihg and going on to win, 8-4. _Errickson, after one was down, walked Billy Her- ! man and Pete Reiser, tossed a single to, Cookie Lavagetto, a dou- ble to Ducky Medwick and a! single to Dolph Camilli. St. Louis Cardinals and the! Philadelphia Phillies fought six- teen innings before deciding the winner. Going into that frame the count stood 2-2. Then John- ny Hopp reached third base for the Cards and came home when Jimmy Brown lifted a long fly to the outfield. Despite the vic- tory, the Dodgers added a half- game to the margin over the Cardinals by virtue of their dou- ble triumph. Johnny Vander Meer, showing flashes. of his old form, white- washed the Cincinnnati Reds 3-0 on four hits. His teammates giv- ing him a 3-0 lead, Vander Meer sent 11 men back to the dugout with bats on their shoulders. Pittsburgh Pirates, put out in front when Al Lopez homered with a mate on base in the fourth, downed the New York Giants, 5-1. Pittsburgh had fled the score at 1-all in the third after the Giants had tallied their lone run in the. first. Results: NATIONAL LEAGUE First Game At Brooklyn R.
