plenty. but the pitching which picked
up after ragged start, apparently
has folded up again.

with Milwaukee and Columbus virtu-
ally tied in third position, although,
the Brewers had margin of one
percentage point over the Birds. Min
neapolis finished it's series with To-
ledo Saturday with a to victory.

socks on the chin Sunday, 6 to 5. and
to 3. The second defeat made it sly
reverses in a row for Columbus Rosy

punching two round-trippers in the
first game.

struggle from Kansas City Saturday,
and Sunday whacked up double
header with Milwaukee by identical
scores, 4 to 3.

Kansas City errors gave Louisville a
5 to victory in the second game,
after the Blues had won the opener.
