Season, Witness Victory

The Dodgers had fine true winning
spirit at Ebbets Field yesterday and
broke their losing streak Of three
games by trcuncing the Cubs, 7 to S.
Manager Wilbert Robinson inspired the
and this the Robins did, to the cratifi-
cation Of 10000 loyal rooters. This at
tendance probably is the s1immest ever
for a Sabbath contest at the Flatbush
park, as only the most faithful ven
tured to the game in the face of Satur-
days double disgrace.
"Caday" Galore rewarded the fans
with fine exhibition in the box, allow
ing eight scattered hits, but the same
cafhot SAID for the rest of the team.
johnson, Schma19dt and Myers cora
nlltted glaiHng errors and put Leon in
several deep holes. The slip by
schnlantit was the most damaging. and
v'rtually presented Chicago with its
four-run lead in the sixth inning. it
was fortunate for the Dodgers that
they redeemed themselves by their hit
ting.
Robbie wreckers ripped into Speed
Martin and Jim York for seven hits and
I'VE runs IN the busy sixth inning, and
then, got taste Of Alexander Free
mans speed ball in the seventh and
eighth. Brooklyn gathered fourteen
hits in all. but only Krueeer's smash in
The seventh went for extra bases. The
Cubs, on the Other hand, had home
run in their collection as the result OF
Chuck Deals drive into the .sft-6eld
obstruction with two on base.
Inc fans saw two plain cases of the
term "handcuf'ed," and both demon
STATIONS were rendered by Speed Mar
tN1l' IN the third inning Jimmy John
ston hit one to the box SO hard that
Martin could not untwine his hands in
time to put the Dedger out. Again in
the sixth Schmandt walloped one at
Martin, and this time the ball hoped
into the air. The Cub looked all around
him, but could not locate tho ball.
Hol4ccher furnished few thrills by
his shortstopping, but he was guilty Of
an error when he threw one wild after,
making great stop.
The contest had all the earmarks of
a pitching duel until the sixth inning.
brooklyn scored run in the third
but the Cubs did the same in the next
inning. IN the sixth, Chicago got away
to four run lead. but Brooklyn went
one better and the game was won.
Cadore singled to Hollocher to open
Brookyn's third and Olson followed
with one-tiiner to right, Cadorc 60
ing to third. Johnston then got his
single to the box and as Galore held
thlrd, the bases were filed. Griffith
forced Johnston but Galore tailed
Wheat hit into double play.
For Chicago, Holochcr opened the
fourth with bit to right and 1'err,
sacrificed. lfollochor raced to third
after Griffith had shared Grimes's long
n.y. and scored on BARRIERS single.
The Cubs apparently clinched the
game IN the sixth with four runs, but
they should have never scored in this
frame. With two cut and Holloche,
on third, Barber hit to Johnston, whose
throw would have retired the side
but Schnandt dropped the ball anc
opened The way to three succeeding
runs. Hellocher had scored on the
error, but Barber was on first. Sui,
Ivan walked and Deal then hit into
the stands for u home run, driving
barner and John L. ahead of him.
Itle Dodgers rallied most unexpect,
edly in their half of this seorcb;ne

on short passed ball and the others
