Alex failed to go the route hut he left Wee ‘ Willie Sherdel with a lead to work | on in the eventh when the Reds ral- lied for three runs. Jim Bottomley hit his 15th homer and took the league lead in that department. ! Dazzy Vance pitched just two balls at Philadelphia and Brooklyn | went down to defeat, 11 to 10. After Jim Elliott had knocked out | s home run in the first half of the ninth and given the Robins a one run lead, the Phils put two men on the paths in their half. Vance then | was summoned to relieve Elliott. He pitched one wide one. The next one was to the liking of Walter Le- rian and the ensuing triple down the third base line scored the tying and | winning runs. Elliott was charged with the defeat because he had put the runners on ba Leach, Phils’ outfielder, smashed homers in the first and second innings and Whit- | ney got one in the seventh. Rain halted what was to have been the second game of a double header with | the Phils leading 4 to 1 at the end | of the third. In the American league, Washing- | ton and Boston split even in two games, the Red Sox taking the first, | 5 to 1, on Russell's ctive pitch- | ing, but bowing to the Senators in | the second, 16 to 7. Washington col- lected 20 hits in the nightcap. The battle between the Browns and Detroit went only four innings, | rain forcing postponement with the Tigers leading 3 to 1.
