Muncrief Gets yonks. Lifts Browns
BY GLEN PERKINS

NEW YORK, May 80. CUP)-Bob
Muncrief, in his sixth season with
the St. Louis Browns, had realized
at last his major ambition-a pitch
ing victory over the world champ
ion New York Yankees.
In his last previous start against
the YankS. Muncrief missed victory
by the narrow margin of one strike,
when with two out and two strikes
on the last batter in the ninth
inning, a rally cost him the game.
Monday. however, the Browns
scored six runs in the first two
innings to assure the big, right
handler his long-awaited triumph.
The Browns. exploding a l3-hit
attack against three Yankee pitch
erS, beat the New Workers, ll-3.
It was MuncriefS only victory Ill
Il starts against the Yanks curing
his career.
This triumph lifted the Browns
into second place-abOve the Wash
ington Senators and Philadelphia
Athletics, now deadlocked for third.
Detroit edged Washington, 81, as
Johnny Corsica limited the Sem
ators to five hits Detroit got only
six hits off Dutch Leonard, who
lost his first game of the season
because of Shoddy infield play.
Meanwhile the Athletics moved TO
the third rung with the Senators
by walloping Cleveland, ga. al
though out-hit by the InCians l4-12.
The Boston Red SoX registered
their seventh straight victory over
their cousin" Chicago White SoX.
3-1. Tex Hughson-with a Shutout
working into the eighth inning
spaced eight hits for his fifth vic
tory. Buck Ross was the loser
In the National league, Bucky
lMole) Walters scored his eighth
triumph-more than any other
pitcher in the majorS-as the Gin
cinnati Reds trounced the Brooklyn
Dodgers, 1874. Cincinnati pounded
Whit Wyatt for seven runs in the
first two innings to give Walters,
the best night pitcher in baseball,
more than sufficient margin.
The New York Giants home-run
pair, Manager Mel OFT and Rookie
Dan Gardella, provided the New
Workers with a GA victory over the
ST. Louis Cardinals for an even
split in their four-game series. In
making it two straight over the
National league champions, OFT and
Gardella duplicated yesterdays feat
OF winning with home runs. Ace
Adams, who relieved Rube Fischer
in the fifth. was credited with his
fifth victory.
The second-place Pittsburgh Pi-
rates, by virtue of an llth-inning
triple by Tommy O'Brien. edged the
Philadelphia PhilheS, 3-2. Rookie
Southpaw Ken Raffensberger went
the route for the PhillieS to lose
a heart-breaker after having set
a seasonal record tanning 13 bat
ters. Xavier Rescigno, who pitched
hitlesS ball for two innings after
relieving Al Cuccurullo in the 10th.
was credited with victory when
O'Brien scored on Babe Dahlgrens

He claims he was gazing at the

off a back porch right smack

would be apt to say he was using
it to plow his garden. We wonder
what the next alibi will be when
he falls out of the boat or will
he tell everyone, that the fish
struck so hard it pulled him out

we hope not, as lot of that cold

out those two rings on her left

soldier boy in New Jersey over

BY the way, Ester, Priscilla and
Sally are the best of pals, Good
