That put them full game in front OF
the second-place New York Giants
who were held idle by practically in
visible rain at the Polo Grounds.
What makes the opening burst OF
the Pirates bear more weight is the
fact that they've taken up right where
they left of last season. when they
closed with 10 straight victories
They're getting consistently good pitch

timely.
Twice yesterday the Pirates ex-
ploded four-run rallies to overtake and
pass the Cubs, the second time In the
eighth inning.
Johnny Rizzo, slugging rookie out
fielder from Columbus. appears to be
the most important addition to the
Corsair lineup. He continued his
