CorIeton's S Victory, 9th
In Row for Team, Ties
Giunts' Mark of 18
BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

There's just no use being skeptical
any longer. Destiny's Dodgers are
so hot they're setting the National
League on fire and the glare is so
bright that the other clubs are
blotted out of the picture.
Nine straight victories, climaxed
by a no-hit pitching performance
from 33-year-old Texas cowhand
who almost decided to quit baseball
last winter and stay at home on
the range, show that Brooklyn Is
taking baseball seriously and will
have to be taken seriously.
Winning streaks aren't always
lucky. The only other club to win
nine in a row at the start of the
season in the last 50-odd years-the
New York Giants of 1918-fnished
second.
Winning streaks sometimes are put
together with luck and the Dodgers
wasn't. They simply have over
whelmed every foe they have met.
Tex Carleton's no-hit 80 masterpiece
against Cincinnati yesterday pointed
up the fact that Brooklyn pitchers
have allowed only 63 hits and II
runs in games.
Knock Homer a Game.
The homer that Pete Coscarart hit
with two on in the fifth to score
all the runs of yesterdays game
kept intact the Dodgers average Of
home run for every game since
the start of the season.
The St. Louis Cardinals were
rained out against the Giants yes
terday. but the Pittsburgh Pirates
were beaten for the fourth straight
time, 6-2. by the Phillies. who piled
up II lusty hits. and the Chicago
Cubs had an 81 squeeze to win in
10 innings from the Bees. AL Todd
hit homer in the extra installment
for the victory.
Until the returns from Cincin.
natl were posted yesterday the
plaudits of the baseball world were
all going to a 25-year-old south
paw of the st. Louis Browns, Emil
Bildilli, who stopped the world
champion New York Yankees, 81,
on two hits in his first start in the
majors. The rookie from San An
tonic gave up a run on triple and
single in the first inning and then
proceeded to hold the famous slug
gers hitless the rest of the way.
Indians Back on Top.
1t was the seventh time In 10
games lefthander had started on
the mound against the Yanks and
the fourth time they had fallen.
They have been beaten twice by
righthanders.
The Cleveland Indians climbed
back into exclusive possession Of
the lead in the American League
with 1915 victory over the Phila.
delphia Athletics on Willis Hud-
Inns 12-hit pitching and two homers
each by Hal Trosky and Ken Kelt-
ner.
The Boston Red Sox, who had
shared the top spot for a day. were

Sox. Chicago made II hits and
Boston four errors to give John

CINCINNATI, Ohio, May Tex
Carleton, discarded by the minon
only months ago as an apparent
"washout," looked at the world to-
day from the heights of no-hy
baseball fame.
The tall, curly-haired 33-year-
old refugee from the American As
sociation pitched the undefeated
Brooklyn Dodgers to a 3-to-0 tri-
umph over Cincinnati yesterday be-
fore 1924 .afls who were with
him almost to man.
If any there were who cried
"They can't do that to our Reds"
they didn't have much chance to be
heard.
The 1854 cheered Milkman Jim
Turner, late of the Boston Bees,
who in eight innings allowed but
four hits. But soon after Pete Cos
carart lofted one over the left
field wall in the fifth for three
run homer, fans suspected they
might. see the realization of pitch
er's dream. They applauded the
Reds-but yelled and cheered the
Texans every move.
Aside from tying a modern major
league record in giving his team its
ninth straight game at the start OF
the season, there was poetic justice
in Carleton's performance.
Walking two and striking out four,
he gave the Reds dose of the med
icine they administered to the Dodg-
ers June Is, 1898, when Johnny VAN
der Nicer pitched the second OF his
twin no-hit, no-run games. That,
incidentally, was the last previous
no-hitter hurled by a National
Lacquer.
Carleton, formerly with the st.
Louis Cardinals and the Chicago
Cubs but sold down river to Milwau-
kee and Internationally released
last year, conceded ''it makes me
feel great" but said he didn't realize
until the eighth that I might have

Games to Go Route
As BengoIs Fall

With six wins in their last seven
games the Nationals today found
themselves tied for third place in the
American League and only two
games out of the lead At this early
stage of the season not much i'm
portance can be attached to standing
but far from unimportant is Joe
Haynes.
Joe is the tall, right pitch
ing sophomore who had been getting
his ears pinned back consistently all
spring, dating from the early exhi-
billions in Florida. Today he held
his first victory, 9-to-4 decision
over the Tigers. More than that,
Joe became the third Washington
pitcher in the last four games to go
the route. And only the fourth
during the season!
Haynes has pitched better games
than his nine-hit performance in
the opener of the three-game Detroit
series. In early stages he was wild.
He walked three straight hitters in
the first inning but escaped un-
scathed when Jimmy Pofahl turned
in a great play for him.
New Hit Mark Set.
In the third he gave, in order,
home run, triple and a single for
two runs. But he gradually i'm
proved and though he tired toward
the finish he had proved himself
pretty fair sort of a pitcher. His
performance came as a great relief
to Manager Bucky Harris. Our
pilct was beginning to wonder about
Joe.
AS the Mats prepared to face the
Tigers again today, with AL Hollings-
worth opposing Buck Newsom, they
did so with feeling that, at long
last, they are ready to make it tough
on enemy hurlers. Zeke Bonura
still is so out of shape that he can't
be counted upon to hit much but,
with Zeke contributing nothing, the
Nationals still tied their previous
making mark yesterday and set
a new hit record by pounding Tom
my Bridges and Dizzy Trout for 13,
including double and two singles
by Gee Walker, who also scored
three runs, batted across four and
stole third base. d
Walker Is No. l Hero.
This batting uprising. plus Haynes
performance, made for sweet music
to Harris ears. In the last four
games Ken Chase, Dutch Leonard
and Haynes have finished what
they've started. This is something
the Washington pitchers hadn't
been able to do for seven games
before these.
The Mats overcame that 20 lead
the Tigers built up in the third in
ming by scoring four runs in the
fifth, rally featured by Walkers
double with the bases loaded. An
other run was added in the sixth,
another in the seventh. and the
thing put on ice in the eighth with
a three-run splurge.
Haynes gave only six scattered
hits in the last six innings. He
walked two but famed three.
