PULLING up;
LEMON IS IT
: (By the Associated Press

10y LIlc ASSOCldltO f-TeSS)
Cleveland is coming strong with
Bob Lemon, top pitcher in the
majors, showing the way.
Good pitch, good hit. That's the
story of Lemon, high man on the
Tribe totem pole.
Success of the Indians mid-sum-
mer pennant drive hinges on Rapid
Robert, the Second. No longer is
Bobby Teller the key man with the
Tribe.
Lemon became the first major
Lacquer to win Is games this sea-
son with a neat three-hit job
against the New York Yankees last
night. His three-run homer in the
eighth was just an added frill. He
didn't need it.
Coming at the start of Cleve-
lands all-important third eastern
trip, it was vital ST. win for
the Tribe. They trail Detroit by
, five games but now are only halt
game behind the second place
Yanks. Since the Indians hit Their
stride June IA, they have won q
of 80. And Lemon has COPIED SIX
of seven, the last five in a row.
Detroit took advantage OF the
Yankee loss to stretch its lead to
AZ games on Freddie Hutchinsons
20 job against Washington.
The run-happy Boston Red Sox
came up with their second 11-run
inning of the season while over
whelming Chicago, 1871. Ellis Kin
der's five-hitter was his 18th
straight over the White Sox and
his seventh win.
st. Louis and Philadelphia re-
manned in a last-place tie by split
ting a twilight-night doubleheader.
The Browns reliever Clarence Mar
shall gave Philadelphia the first
game, 80, when he walked Sam
Chapman on a 80 count with the
bases full in the ninth. Homers by
Roy Sievers, owen Friend and Don
Lenhardt carried the Brownies to a
So second game win.
The Cardinals frightened the Ma
tional League race, drawing within
one game of Philadelphia with a
AZ victory over the Phils. 1t may
have been a costly win for ST. Louis
because Stan Musial left the game
with a wrenched knee and pitcher
Harry Brecheen retired with a sore
left arm.
Erv Palica, a refugee from the
Dodger bullpen, pitched his second
straight five-hit win for Brooklyn
to shutout Chicago, 1-o.
Rookie catcher Del Crandall, get
ting a second chance because of
Walker Cooper's ankle injury, in
four runs with a homer and double
in Boston's GA edge over Cincin-
natl.
Ralph Kiner socked his 25th
homer, double and triple but his
Pittsburgh club lost to New York,
rs. The Giants scored all seven
runs in the first inning to snap

RAINIERS IN
ANOTHER WIN
FROM PADRES
CBy the Associated Press


Those Oakland Acorns and Seat
tie Rainiers are still bobbing along
like a cork in the rapids today.
The Oaks boosted their Pacific
Coast League lead to two games by
edging the Stars for the fourth
straight time, to 2. Seattle took a
firmer grip on the No. rung last
night by whipping fourth place San
Diego again, 5 to 3.
But take a look at the lower di-
vision. Things were happening there
too. Portlands Roy Helser out
lasted Sacramento's Matt Surkont
in a l to 0 pitching duel; Los An
geles laced San Francisco once
more, to 3. All of which put the
Seals and the Beavers in a fifth
place tie.
You walk a man and he beats
you. as Bob Feller used OF say. In
Jack Salveson's case, however, you
walk a man and he beats your
buddy.
Salveson, ace of the Hollywood
mound corps-or what's left of it
happened to walk two men in the
fifth inning of the feature attrac-
ton at Oakland. One pass was is
sued on the orders from the bench
Hollywood Manager Fred Haney
wanted the bases loaded for a
double play ball with Oakland
pitcher Earl Harrist as the next
batter
Harrist foiled the plan by bloop-
ing a single into the outfield and
two runs scored.
At San Diego, the Padres nicked
Guy Fletcher for Is hits, but lost
anyway. The Rainiers hammered
Red Embree for a three run third
and closed out with a two run blast
off Bob Savage in the eighth.
