By the Associated Press With the White Sox turned back at least temporarily in their drive to oust the Yankees from tl the American leagu: league townsmen, making a spirited bid of their own. A winning streak which has c ried them to a game and a halt b hind the pace-setting Pirates fattencd to nine games yesterd: A 6 to 2 victory over the Giants, on | a furious batting attack by Grimm vho_ Cubs helped themselves to one of the quickest s of the year, the game taking little more than hour and one-half to pl First of the newly traded players to appear, Zack Taylor caught the whole game for the New York club, | having been transformed from a Brave to a Giant in a single day Taylor scored one of the two runs and made a brace of hit:, but the | teams was unable to smack them when they counted. Washington has been a Jonah for the White Sox hefore and proved 80 again yesterday in shutting out the sccond place tenants, 10 to 0, for the third straight win of the serics. Last season it was the Sena- tors who cost the White Sox a share of the world series players' purse taking fourth in the standings 8 the Sox were forced i fifth. Today i their victory had the Sox totteri on the edge of their second place shelf. Fifteen Washington hits off | two pitchers while the visitors were e f getting but three from the deli of Crowder told the tale. A good exhibition of the viclent way the Yankees usually win their ball games was given as they pasted the Cleveland Indians, 14 to 6, on| the wings of five home runs and ten | | other hits. ¥ Names not quite as familiar as those of Ruth and Gehrig were in the home run column. This time it was Paschal 2, Lazzeri, Dugan and Collins. The Athletics, on the up-grade with thelr revised line-up, came | close to the White Sox in ranking by nosing out Detroit, 7 to 6, while St. Louis displaced the Tigers at the top of the second division by beating lh Red Sox, 2 to 0, on the hitting hurling of Pitcher Van Gilder. cidentally the Browns were th road team to win a game y A After taking two on the chin in successive days from. the Brooklyn | Robins, the Pirates came back in emphatic defense of their league leadership by beating the Robi to 3. Paul Waner, the newlywed, accounted for two of the runs in the sixth with a homer with a mate on ' base.
