1t appears Del Gamer has at last es-
capped his jinx. The former Tiger has
broken no bones this summer. and no
instances of long layoffs because OF
illness or injury are recalled. Del has
simply felded well when called upon
and, used only against left-handed
pitching, has swatted the apple at
900 gait Now he has a chance to cut
in on the world series melon. and his
labors are confined to alternate days
at the m ost. 1t has been great year
for Gamer, and one of which many
lean seasons have made him deserving.

game.

Doyle hit a long sacrifice fly to Moran
Burns scored. Doyle ran out the fly,
and after turning first and seeing the
ball coming toward him, he reached
out, caught it and threw it to the
Braves second baseman.
Burns had scored long before the
throw from Moran reached Doyle's
hands. but the Braves put in a kick
against Doyle's action in catching the
ball, and Umpire Quigley ruled in
their favor, declaring Burns out for
Doyle's interference. and the run did
not count. The run would have put
the Giants in the lead.
