ON TO TOP RUNG
YANKS TIE RECORD OF TRIO
OF HOME RUNS IN
ONE INNING

NEW YORK, june 2l.-Phe-
nomenon of the National League
this season is Cincinnati Reds,
who are now in the midst of a
mad scramble for first place in
the senior circuit.
1t took Is innings yesterday for
the Reds to defeat Boston Bees
but by doing so they held on to
their slim lead over Chicago
Cubs for first place, and are now
two-and-a-half games behind New
York Giants. Lanning and Fette
held the sensational Reds to sew
engsafeties. R Davis shutout the
Bees for eight innings but in the
ninth they got at him for run
and tied the count. In the ''un-
lucky" 18th, with Wally Berger
on base, Goodman cracked triple
to score the winning run. He came
home later on long fly.
The Reds open three-game Sc
ries with the Giants today. The
league-leaders have been able to
win only one game from the Gin
cy boys SO far this season and
have lost four contests to them
Should the Reds take the three
games they will 60 into first place
with haH-game lead.
Big Bill Lee held Brooklyn
Dodgers to seven bingles, as his
teammates pounded out IL off
Hamlin and Posedel to win, 5 to
/. The victory kept the Cubs
right behind the Reds.
In the only game played in the
American League yesterday, New
York Yankees tied a record held
by several clubs--that of hitting
three home runs in one inning.
The Yanks' trio of round-trip-
pers came in the sixth inning and
produced five runs, one more than
enough to down st. Louis Browns.
Final score was 3 to 4.
