Spotlight Hits
Reds, Pirates

far out in front that you need
binoculars to see them, the Pirates
and Reds have captured fan inter-
est with their fight for second spot
and the cut of the World Series
money that goes with it.
Currently they are as close as
two coats of paint, each having go
victories and 45 losses for a per-
centage of .57l. Both clubs are
driving and with 1l2 games Separa-
ting them and the fourth place
Chicago Cubs, apparently have the
runner-up spot sewed up between
them.
The Pirates are staging a rush
which would gain ground on any
club but the Reds are currently
riding an eight game winning streak
and have tucked away 10 victories
in their last II starts, the latest
being a pair Monday over the Bos-
ton Braves.
In the American league the Bis
ton Red Sox whitfield the lead of
the ST. Louis Browns to five and
half games in a four-hit game
for 81 victory. Denny GaleholBse
who had achieved five straight
wins for the league leaders, was
the loser when the sox tapped him
for all their runs in the sixth and
seventh innings.
