The Cards and the Giants now are tied for second place and the recent rec- ord of the St. Louis impressive, but the Cards are faced with a long tour of the east while the Giants will have the advantage of playing at home most of the time from now to the end of the season. The Cards gained their deadlock for second place yesterday by | trouncing the Cincinnati Reds. 13 to 2. for their fourth straight victory and their 13th in 15 games.
