MONDAY, OCTOBER 5 - ARDS WIN THIRD STRAIGHT SERIES BATTLE, 9 T0 6) FAST BASE RUNNING AND TIMELY HITTING FEATUR- ED: PITCHERS.

ENOS SLAUGHTER ‘\ENOS SLAUGHTER, righifield- a rip-roaring, free-hit- ting merry-go-round Billy South- werth’s boys ran off with yes- terday but it again demonstrated what youth means on a diamond. Passing the high-mark set the day before, a total of 69,902 fans crammed every nook and corner of the Stadium and they weren’t disappointed. Breezing along with a 1-0 lead, the Yanks looked good for: ,a comeback until the fourth when the Redbirds exploded base hits all over the field and ran wild around the bases for six runs and a five-run margin over the Mc- Carthymen. But thet wasn’t all. The Yanks came back in the sixth to tie it all up with a five-run outburst, sparked by Charlie (King Kong) Keller's three-run homer. Undaunted and in no way ac- cepting the challenge of their opponent in dismay, the gallop- ing Cards rallied in the seventh for two runs and victory. They added one more in the ninth. Meanwhile, pitchers had been rushed to the mound faster than Hitler is sending reinforcements to Stalingrad, but it was up to Max Lanier to show ’em how it is done. Lanier, coming in shortly aft- er the Yank uprising in the sixth, not only held the opposition scoreless from there on out but knocked in the lone marker in the final round. He got credit for the victory. Stan Musial opened the Card- inal fourth by beating out a bunt down the third base line. Before the third out he came to bat again and lined a single inside the first base line that scored a runner. Morton Cooper, who failed egainst the Yanks in the first game, the only one the Bombers won, was knocked out of the box again yesterday. Box score: St. Louis Cardinals Player— AB RH PO Brown, 2b T.

Coming |back home for the third game of the 1942 classic, the Bronx Bomb- ers, champions of the American since Hector was a pup, failed Cardinal portsider, who had only ja fair record the past season. Not only did White shutout the vaunted Yankees 2-0 but his mastery over them was so plete the heavy sluggers were lucky to get scratch hits and two! safe blows in any one inning were as scarce as new tires on old jalopies. Baseball fans will have to turn back the pages of diamond his-} tory until they are almost faded with age before they can find anything to equal what happened | Saturday. For one thing, a new attend- ance record was set when almost | 70,000 spectators jammed the | Stadium in anticipation of a | Yankee recovery from their loss | Wednesday at St. Louis. You !won’t find an equal to that in |the books of years past. A check-back 16 years would be required to discover a like defeat suffered by an AL New York club. In that year, 1926, old Jess Haines blanked the Yan- kees 4-0 for the same St. Louis team and it hasn’t happened again since then until White | turned the trick Saturday. The American Leaguers had scored in 40 games since 1926. For the first time since the Yankees have been playing World Series games they found them- selves with less games won than |their opponents. At only one other time were they behind and that occurred in the 1936 strug- gle with the Giants. Carl Hubbell bested them in the opening bat- tle that year but the Yanks over- came that disadvantage the next day and went on to win the crown. But in more than one game played of any series the Yanks always found themselves on top, Spectacular | fielding saved White’s shutout several times but the 26-year-old southpaw gave up the majority of the hits ,he allowed after two men were already down. That was no as- suran¢e the Yanks wouldn't Sepre but it was better than hav- dng runners straining at the bas- es’ wifh ni or just one gone. “ithe Y: its were hitting White but they eOuldn’t place them out of reach of the fleet Cardinal outfielders.
