Braves Snatch
A Ball Game
From Dodgers
Catiore Pounded in Ninth
for Five Runs and u ncle
Wilbert's Men Go Down

The Braves snatched ball game right
out Of Uncle Wi}bert Robinson's bat bag
at Ebbets Field yesterday afternoon by
staging sensational rally in the ninth
inning after the Dodgers had the con-
test practically won. When the smoke
had cleared il was found that Caddy Ca
dore had been pumped for five hits and
FIVE runs, including home run by Wal
ton Cruise with two on base The
Dodgers were retired in order by Scott,
who pitched tho ninth inning, and so
the Braves won, to 4.
Despite the threatening weather about
5000 witnessed the second defeat of the
Dodgers at the hands of the Braves in
three days. The good folk of Flatbush
also beheld terrible slaughter of Ca
dore's pet shoots, as the latter was
found for fifteen hits in all. He was
lucky enough to escape with little DAM
age until the fatal ninth. McQuillan
was likewise wabbly, and weakened
especially toward the end, so that Scott
pitched the last inning, after Christen-
bury had batted for McQuillan.
The Braves entered upon the last
frame with the count a to 2 against
them. Wheat quickly retired Ford, the
first batter, when he raced to the foul
line for his high fly. Gowdy singled to
tenbury batted for McQuillan and
doubled sharply to right, Gibson taking
third.
Powell Causes Trouble
Powell beat out tap to Schmandt
and Gibson Tailed. Chrstenbury scored
moment later with the tying run, on
Barbare's sacrifice fly to Myers. South
worth singled, advancing Powell. Cruise
then drove home what proved to be the
winning runs by lifting the ball over
the right field barrier, scoring Powell
and Southworth ahead of him.
There was plenty of hitting in the
early innings, but neither team could
score until the fifth, when the Braves
broke the ice with pair of runs as
the result of barrage of solid base
hits.
McQuillan was an easy victim on a
fly to Myers, but Powell, the Boston
lead-off man singled to left. Barbara
followed with Texas Lacquer to
right, sending Powell to second. Billy
Southworth shot a long triple to right
and Powell Tailed, but Barbara, who
also tried to score on the blow, was
nipped at the plate on Griffith's beau
tiful throw to Miller Cruise kept up
the assault on Galore with another
single and Southworth counted with
the second run. Cruise ended the up
rising when he was caught stealing,
Miller to Olson.
Dodgers Break Through
McQuillan meanwhile prevented the
Robins from scoring until the sixth,
when they managed to push a single
tally across the rubber on three base
hits. Olson singled as an opener and
Johnston advanced him with another
one-base blow. Griffith forced Jimmy
at second, Boeckel to Ford, but Olson
reached third. Wheat came through
with timely single to right field and
Olson tailed. Schmandt broke up the
rally by hitting into double play.
The Dodgers overhauled the visitors
in the next round and went into the
lead with a brace Of TALES. Myers,
the first batter in this inning, con-
nected for a powerful drive to center
field. Cruise set out in hot pursuit,
but just touched the ball and it set
tied in the center field stands for
home run. The clout seemed to I'M
balance McQuillan, who passed Jan
win. Hal went to second on a sacri-
fee by Miller and completed the circuit
on Cadore's safety to center.
Brooklyn apparently cinched the
game in the next inning with one more
run, when Schmandt scored Johnston
with single for Brooklyn's fourth
and final tally. After Boston's rally,
Manager Mitchell sent Scott to pitch
the final frame and he retired the side
in order, tanning Miller and Konetchy
The score:
