were the ones which enabled the
Nationals to make clean sweep OF
their series in Cleveland. They also
gave Andy Anderson, who came out
of the bull pen to replace the ailing
Alex Carrasquel as starting
pitcher, his third victory of the
campaign.
Anderson pitched heroically, allow
ing five hits until the ninth inning
when he tired and needed the help
of Walter Masterson to check the
threatening Tribe. Masterson came
in with the bases filled, two runs in
for the inning and two out. He
forced Soup Campbell to bounce to
Bloodworth and end the game.
Defeat Was Presaged.
Al Smith pitched for the Indians
and that usually means licking for
the Mats. His record against them
is almost spotless.
For four innings it appeared that
Mr.. Smith was going to do to Wash
ington what the cinematic Mr..
Smith did to it in last years movie.
He held Washington hitleSs over
that span.
But Bloodworth cracked a single
in the fifth and the Senators had
cracked the filibuster. Roger Cramer
walked in the sixth and scored on
Buddy Lewis double. Bloodworth
singled in the seventh and Tailed
on George Cases double.
The Nationals got four in the
ninth and one of them was needed.
Bloodworth, as usual, started it with
his third single. Al Evans walked,
but Anderson popped up for the
second out. Case walked, however,
and Cramer singled for two runs.
Buddy Lewis also walked and Cecil
Travis singled for two more runs.
The Indians outhit the Harris

hits weren't so timely.

BY JUDSON BAILEY,
Associated Press Sports Writer.


The pennant problem in the Ma
tional League is getting to be can
the st. Louis Cardinals keep going
with all their injuries?" Instead of
can the Cardinals beat the Brook
lyn Dodgers?"
There have been only five games
this season in which Manager Billy
Southworth has had available the
complete Cardinal lineup and the
clubs hospital list is beginning to
read like a page out of who's who
in baseball.
Topping off a long string of acci-
dents, Terry Moore, the best center
fielder in the league, was struck on
the head by ball pitched by Art
johnson yesterday at Boston. He
will be out of action for possibly
a week.
Moore is captain of the Redbirds,
an invaluable cog in the club. one
of the great fielding players In
baseball, a .300-plus hitter and .
real gas-houser with the heart Of
a lion.
Injuries Don't Curb Cards.
His loss would be catastrophe to
many clubs and may be to the
Cardinals. But If it were an isolated
case. it would be accepted as one of
the breaks of the game. Instead it
came just 10 days after slugging
Enos Slaughter, the Cards right
fielder, was los tfor the rest of the
season with a broken shoulder. Pre-
viously the club had lost just about
every important member Of the
squad-Johnny Mize. Jimmy Brown,
Gus Mancuso, Morton Cooper,
Walker Cooper, Frank Crespi and
others with injuries Of one kind or
another.
In spite of this procession Of
trouble the Cardinals have kept
right on coming and yesterday they
swept q double header from the
Braves, 20 and 80. Ernie White,
the Cards great young left-hander,
pitched q six-hit shutout in the
first game for his 18th victory and
Howard Pollett, 20-year-old SOUTH
paw just brought up from the Texas
League, pitched four hitter for
his major league debut in the night

The double triumph enabled the
Cards to climb within . game and
q half OF the Brooklyn Dodgers, who
were given 4 7-6 handout by the
Pittsburgh Pirates for Brooklyn's
sixth straight win.
Dodgers Win in Ninth.
The Dodgers exploded four runs
in the first inning, then were over
taken by six-run rally of the Buc-
cancers in the third, when Bob El-
lott hit a three-run homer. After
that the Dodgers threatened often
and tied the score on Pete Reiser's
homer in the seventh, but the win
ming run crossed the plate in the
ninth inning when Right-fielder
Elliott dropped a fly ball with the
bases loaded and two out. 1t was
Pittsburgh's fifth error of the day.
Johnny Allen, waived out of the
American League by the St. Louis
Browns, received credit for his Sec

three innings of scoreless relief
pitching for the Dodgers.

DETROIT, Mich, Aug. 21.-
Jimmy Bloodworth, who talks a

presenting them with their eighth
consecutive defeat, 6 to 3, he sWelled
his batting average for l94l against

tendency toward pop-ups against
other clubs, Bloodworth's general
average is approximately .255. But

PHILADELPHIA, Aug. al
Deacon Bill McKechnie agrees it
sounds funny to say his Cincinnati
world champions still are in the
National League pennant race, but
declares I'VE believe that's the case.
History repeats, you know"
Ten and half games behind the
pace-setting Dodgers, the Reds ap-
parently are hoping for miracle
to aid their belated bid, but they're
not distressed.
They point nimbly to 1889 when
they were winging in front with
1871 game lead. July closed Its
books and the Reds reached Septem-

after that nobody could stop us.
We played 700 ball and came
through, beating the Cards in the
final critical series. Baseball. I
always say, is a most uncertain
pastime"
Then there's the mad rush OF
the Cubs in 38. They got hot in
late August and September. steamed
over the folding Pirates and copped
the pennant as Gabby Hartnett hit
homers after dusk and PreXy Bill
Benswanger of the Bucs lay swoon-
ing and unnoticed in the aisle.
OF such things the stretch duels
in the National circuit are made,
and knowing this, the Reds are
taking comfort.
For one thing they're hitting now
and that wasn't the case along about
Memorial Day, when they fell exact
ly II games behind the leaders.
McKechnie laments that hits and
not better pitching was what he
needed to keep from dropping back
and now that they're coming up
with them, maybe we'll play little

Rochester, current champions,
and Newark, coming champions,
share the same spotlight today, like
December 81 and January l at II
O'Clock midnight.
Both swept double headers from
their closest rivals last night,
Rochester regaining fourth place
with a pair of 10 decisions over
Jersey City and Newark practically
clinching the 1941 pennant by beat
ing second-place Montreal, 81
and 5-3.
The double victory stretched the
Bears league lead to eight games
over the Royals, with only % tilts
remaining to be played, and turned
what was to have been crucial"
series into rout, giving them a
sweep of the four-game stand.
Johnny Lindell registered his Goth
victory of the year and ninth in a
row in the nightcap for the Bears
after Allan Gettel had notched his
10th win during the abbreviated
opener, holding the Royals to three
hits. The Bears backed Lindell
with a 10-hit assault on Ed Head
and Steve Rachunok. scoring four
times in a big seventh inning, and
provided Gettel with all the margin
he needed with pair of runs in
the first frame Of the opener.
Rochester's twin triumph gave
the Wings a two-game lead over
the Little Giants. as Ham Surkont
turned in a no-hitter in the seven
inning twilight contest and Hank
Gornicki followed with two-hlt
effort in the afterpiece.
Surkont, 19-year-old farmland OF
the st. Louis Cardinals, missed a
perfect game by walking three men,
but did not allow runner to reach
second base. He struck out three.
