PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 28-R-
Playing for the first time against
their former teammate, Fred Fitz-
simmons, now manager OF the
Phillies, the Brooklyn Dodgers
went on the rampage today with
20 hits to wallop the Phils, IA to 7.
Al Gerheauser, the first of four
Philadelphia pitchers, yielded six
runs in the first two innings, four
of the tallies being driven by Billy
Herman's two doubles. The Phils
knocked Rex Barney out il the
fifth by scoring six runs on three
hits, four walks and a balk, but
Arkie Vaughan's triple off Dick
Conger with the bases loaded in
the seventh sewed up the weird
game.
