to Yankee victories. He bat
ted in eight runs in the two games
with his first two homers of the
season, double and a single, and
boosted his batting average 16
points from .222 to .238.
The two wins, vital because De-
troit also swept its twin bill at st.
Louis, left the Yankees game and
half behind the leading Tigers.
Hank Borowy won his ninth game
in the opener as Bobo Newsom was
losing his 10th for the AS
Hal NewhouSer kept ahead OF
his 1914 pitching time table by
winning his 18th game, to l, for
the Tigers in the opened. Paul
Dizzy Trout won the second,

Rookie stars Dave Ferris of the
Red Sox and Marino Pieretti of
the Senators won their games at
Washington Ferris gained his 10th
triumph for. Boston, 6 to 5, in the
opener and Pieretti won his sew
enth for Washington, to 2, in the
second game to split the bill. Eddie
Lakes three-run Boston homer
provided the margin in the opener
Steve Gromek won his eighth
game for the Indians, Z to 8, over
the White Sox at Cleveland, but
Chicago put on seven-run rally
in the third to win the second
game, to 4.
Brooklyn maintained its three
and a half-game lead in the Ma
tional, winning its eighth straight
game, to 6, from the Braves be-
for the streak ended with a 8 to /
Boston victory in the second game.
