- left out Of the reckoning
when the squad was picked
L L for the all-star ball game at
Cleveland Monday. apparently Is out
to prove that the selectors made a
big mistake. Incidentally he is
proving big help to the Tigers in
their drive to take the American
League lead away from the Yankees.
Already far ahead in the home run
race, Handy Hank approached Babe
Ruth's record pace when he belted
out his twenty-fourth and twenty
fifth circuit swats of the year yes
terday in the course of Detroits To-
to-l triumph over st. Louis. That
not only gave him lead of eight
over his nearest rivals, but put him
right in line for q shot at the
Ruthian crown.
Hank Hits With Runners On.
A T THIS stage in the 1927 season,
= when he set the record of go
homers, Babe Ruth had only 26
circuit drives to his credit and he
didn't hit a particularly fast clip
until September.
In addition to his two boundary
belts, each with q man on base,
Greenberg smacked pair Of singles
and converted them into runs, and
drew an Intentional pass in the fourth
inning when the Tigers scored five
runs to make their eighth straight
victory virtual certainty
Aiding in the triumph were II
other Detroit blows and some fine
pitching by Vic Sorrell, who has been
In only seven games this season. Sor-
ren gave only seven hits for his sea-
sons second victory. The other was
scored over the Browns last week
when Greenberg hit another pair of
homers.
The Tiger triumph reduced the
Yankees lead to one and one-half
games as the New Workers game at
washington was rained out. The
CleVeiand-C Chicago struggle for third
place also was washed out, leaving
two National League contests to COM
plete the days program. The Phila-
