LEE Of CUBS GETS

ASSOCldteQ FTeSS SpOIgS
V yOUNG BILL LEE, 6-foot s-inch
" right handler, has reasserted
his mastery over the world
champion New York Giants
just when it would do the Chicago
Cubs the most good.
The burly rookie, striking his best
form in weeks, scored his third sue
cessive victory over the champions
yesterday, shading Hal Schumacher in
a great pitching duel, 10. Lee gave
only three hits, permitted no Giant
to plant his feet on third base and
allowed only three to get as far as
second. Coming on the heels of Lonnie
WarnekeS three-hit triumph OF the
previous day, the victory enabled the
Cubs to shave the Giants National
League lead to four and one-half
games.
Lee needed assistance to protect his
perfect record against the Giants and
he got it from his fellow rookie, George
CTut) Stainback, and the veteran
Hazen Cuyler. In the seventh the
fleet Cuyler singled and came all the
way home on -Stanback's double against
the left-feld wall. That was the end
of the days scoring, as Schumacher
gave only five hits.
Tigers and YankS Win.
"HE American League situation,
in the meantime, remained un-
changed as the Detroit Tigers
walloped the Philadelphia Athletics,
1i-0, while New York's Yankees were
squeezing out 80 decision over the
Chicago White Sox. This combina-
ton of results left the Tigers still
four and one-half games in front.
Tom Bridges gave the AS only five
hits as he pitched his first victory over
the Tigers current Eastern tourt His
mates supported him with a 14-hit
drive to which Manager Mickey Coch-
rane and Marvin Owen contributed
three hits apiece. Babe Ruth's pinch
double in the seventh drove in the
tying and winning runs for the Yank-
ees and ruined Milt Gaston's seven
hit pitching performance for the Pale
Hose.
Cleveland held on to third place by
downing the Boston Red Sox, 6-5.

Buddy promises to wind up with the
best batting mark of his major league

is better than any previous average
he had at the end of a campaign,
But it is his fielding that has been
