Tanks Hopes OfCotchinq
 Sox Dimminq

New York. July 2 -tUP)- The Boston Red Sox, who would be half a season ahead of the rest of the American League if they could hit on the road as they do at home, ap- peared to have that trouble solved today. to the dismay Of the Yan- kees and Tigers.
 Bostons only losing streaks this season have been on the road, and almost every loss was caused by weak hitting rather than pitching failure. In one three-game losing skein at St Louis. the BosoX got a total Of l3 hits Unless the Seekers have another and even worse road trip on their present jaunt, the Tank chances of catching them are . hopeless, and Boston's 15-hit to 5 | victory over St. Louis last night destroyed much of New York s ! hopes.
 Bevens Wins llth
 New York stayed II games be- hind with a to 2 victory over the Chicago White Sox for Floyd Bevens' llth victory Chicago got nearly two-run lead, but three singles and two walks of Ed Lo- pat in the sixth scored four runs Tor New York, and Aaron Robin sons two-run homer in the eighth sewed it up.
 Detroit. still hopeful Of taking second place, stayed in the running with a 4 10 3 win over Philadelphia in which Virgil Trucks starred on the mound and at bat Trucks gave |up all three As runs in the first inning on Buddy Rosar's triple, but Detroit fought back to tie, and then won in the sixth on doubles by Paul Richards and Trucks.
 Washington won from Cleveland, 5 to 4, on Cecil Travis pinch single in the ninth inning which scored Mickey Vernon with the winning run. Mickey Haetner allowed i3 hits and Washington made three errors, but the Senators made ef- tective use of their seven hits
 Brooklyn's :ead In the National League was tanned to one game over St. Louis when the last-place ElLkSOuISl dICso Sa4i4t tO 4AAN " whip the Dodgers, 5 to 0, on Fritz Ostermueller's seven-hit pitching. frhe Pirates got all their runs of Vic Lombardi, ace Dodger lefty. IL was sweet revenge for Ostermueller, who was waived out of the majors by the Dodgers when he was within two weeks of becoming l0-year man The Pirates later brought him back.
 Cubs Beaten
 The Phils got their sixth straight complete game from a pitcher when Fran Hoerst set the Cubs down with X hits in a ? to 1 triumph. Frank Mccormick drove in the runs with a bases-loaded single in the sixth inning It was Chicago's fourth defeat in row.
 New York edged Cincinnati, 10 g. with a tWo-run rally in the ninth inning Bill Rigney sent the win ming run home with single after Sid Gordon and Babe Young had singled and a run came in on a helder's choice. John Gee was the winning pitcher and Ewell Black well the loser.
