Zock Taylor Blasts Red Sox
In Rhuborb Over Ned Carver
BY the Assoeioisd Press

ST. LOUIS, July 17.-Zack
Taylor, manager of the tail-end
Browns, says the Red Sox showed
evidence OF a lack of hustle in
their series here.
Taylor usually Is mild-man-
nered and not given to strong
statements. Buv he was Spurred
to sharp words by the painful
dent his Browns put in Boston's
pennant hopes and a report some
Boston players were complaining
that Ned Carver was kept from
pitching in turn and was saved
for the Red Sox series.
Thus far Carver has broken
even with Boston in six games,
one of which he lost 20. He has
pitched only once against the
Yankees, losing, 6-1, on May %.
The Browns won two out of the
three Boston games. trimming the
Red Sox' f1rst-place margin to a
single game.

the Red Sox to five hits and beat

to pitch Saturday against Phila-

And yesterday, the Browns ex-

inning and went on to win. 9-5,

This produced a jubilant scene
in the Browns blessing room
after the game. No one was hap
pier than Taylor.

last four innings after they folded

look like they we're hustling after

He added that in his opinion the
Ivaunted Red Sox looked like any

Sox were complaining about Gar

Robinson got $84, 900 here when
Turpin beat him on points in the
