Trout s4-Hitfer Blanks
Leaders as Double
SteaI.Is Decisive
BY JACK HAND,
Associated Press Sports Writer,


Eighteen scoreboard goose eggs
stared the st. Louis Browns in the
face today as the league leaders
tackled the surging Detroit Tigers
In the second game of "crooshul'
series. with the Yankees breathing
defiance in new threat.
Six of the eight teams in the
American League changed places
yesterday when New York took over
second spot only ~ games off the
pace and the Tigers showed into a
third-place tie with Boston.
Trout Hurls 4-Hitter.
Dizzy Trout gave the Brownies
plenty Of nothing with a neat four
hit whitewash job. 10, doubling
the string of zeroes Matched by
Washington's Johnny Niggeling
Tuesday night. It took a double
steal engineered by Joe Hoover and
Eddie Mayo to beat Denny Gale
house, who matched Trout's work
pitch for pitch in the first seven
innings. Dizzy became the first
American League hurler to toss four
shutouts.
The Brownies had been blanked
only seven times all season, but this
second successive job coming when
the club had lost six of its last
seven, was particularly damaging
blow to all-St. Louis series plans.
Boston's hopes faded in a double
setback at Philadelphia, 6-1 and
9-4, with Bobo Newsom lengthen-
ing his home scoreless inning streak
against Boston to 26 for the first
victory and Joe Berry grabbing a
relief triumph in the second. Bobby
Estallella boosted the AS into fifth
place and helped drop the Red Sox
from second to a tie for third with
five hits in seven tries including
his fifth homer with two on,
Kenny Keltner became the 23d
major Lacquer to hit grand slam
homer this year when he connected
for the second time in, Cleveland s
1912 romp over Chicago's Bill Diet
rich. Mel Harder captured his 10th
victory.
Giants Slaughter Dodgers.
Mel Otis Giants hoped back
into the National League first di-
vision on four successive victories by
slaughtering Brooklyn. 1872. behind
Bill Voiselle AS Chicago was shut
out by Cincinnati's Ed Heusser, 20.
1t was the fifth time Voiselle had
stopped the last-place Dodgers in
six starts and Brooklyn's sixth
straight loss.
Pittsburgh's victory splurge was
halted at six straight and II of 18
games when st. Louis Fred Schmidt
shut out the Pirates, 40, for the
Red Birds 89th triumph. Preacher
Roe was the victim. With 36 games
to 60, the Cards who have won IA
of their last IS and In a row,
need 27 victories to tie the Cubs
all-time mark.
Ron Northey's bases loaded
homer gave the Phillies' Dick Bar
rett first game 81 edge over Jim
Tobin of Boston, but Nate An
drews outsteadied Charley Schanz
to even the score in the finale, 4-3.

BY JOHN B. KELLER.

Listen to old baseball folk and
they'll tell you that club that can't
win its extra-inning games hasn't
any class. In other words, 1t just
isn't good enough to move along In
select company. Well, the Wash
ington ball club has played 10 extra
inning games this season-and 1t
has won exactly five.
To make the Mats look worse,
when they lost to the New York
Yankees last night at Grifiith Sta
dium, 4 to 2, in IL inings, they lost
their ninth overtime game in Sue
cession. That doesn't resemble class,
II one is to believe the old base
ballers.
Incidentally, the last time the
Mats wol IA game that went beyond
the reguldtion limit 1t was on June
IL here, when they beat the Yankees
to 3, in II innings. How they've
sunk since!
There were two factors that con-
tributed to their loss last night. One
was Manager Os Bluege's fear to
take a chance with a pinch hitter
for Roger Wolff, the ultimate losing
pitcher, when the Mats had the
bases crowded with two out in the
10th inning, and the other was q
misplay of double-play ball driven
toward Shortstop Johnny Sullivan
In the Yankees 11th.
Mats Can't Spare Hurlers..
That Bluege didn't take the
chance of substituting a hitter for
Woln when there were three Mats
awaiting relief on base in the 10th
may be excusable, however. There's
a dearth of sound pitchers with the
Mats these days and with a flock
OF double-headers coming up in the
next 10 days Bluege must conserve
his available talent.
or course, an error In baseball Is
mechanical. 1t could happen any
time. But, unfortunately, the error
oy Sullivan came at a most in
opportune moment.
The clubs went into the Yankee
1lth with the score 2-all. Wolf
walked Nick Etten, first bate,
up. Then came Frank Crosetti's
grounder to Sullivan that was
marked all over a double play ball
But Sullivan missed it and there
were two Yanks on with none out.
Oscar Grimes promptly sacrificed

The Mats in their half Of tn
11th had two on by virtue OF passe,
with two out, but the best Rooki,
Fred Vaughn could do was strik,
