Rookie Wins
Tie for Cards
BY LEO MACDONELL

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 6-Thanks to
Blk Donnelly, a recruit relief
pitcher, and Ken ODea, a pinch
hitter. the Cardinals today were
knotted with the Browns at one
all in a bitterly contested all-St,
Louis World Series.
Before a capacity crowd of 35,-
076 roaring fans, the National
League Cardinals, in a stirring H.
inning overtime game, whipped
the Browns, 81, at Sportsman
Park yesterday to come level with
their American League rivals, who
had bagged the opening game OF
the set Wednesday.
Young Donnelly in his first
Series, hurled four spectacular
scoreless innings to hold off the
Browns after replacing Max
Lanier when the veteran left
handler stumbled into trouble in
the eighth.
PLENTY OF NOME
In each OF the four frames, DON
nelly struck out at least one bats
man for a total of seven and with
a hair-tingling display of moxie
turned back enemy threats that
would have wilted more expert
enced big leaguers.
His greatest display of proves
came in the eighth when, with
Mike Kreevich on second as a re-
suit of a two-bagger and no one
out. he whitfield three of the
Browns. forcing the American
Leaguers to swing grotesquely al
a battling. sharp-breaking curve.
A single by Ray Sanders. the
Cardinals first baseman. was the
spark that set off the triumphal
fireworks in the eleventh. Sanders
was sacrificed to second by George
(Whitey) kurowski.
