11-Run Lead Blown,
Yet Giants MANAGE
To Gain on Rivals
By Joe KelchIer
Associated Press Sports Editor

Imagine a big league baseball
team blowing an Ito lead! It
happened yesterday to none other
than the New York Giants, the
National League champions.
Yet the Giants gained ground
for the day as they split even
while Brooklyn lost and Chicago
dropped a pair.
Sunday produced lots of excite
ment as the New York Yankees
increased their first-place lead in
the American League with two
victories over the Cleveland Indi-
ans, the Boston Braves chilled the
red-hot Cubs with a double defeat
and the Cincinnati Reds won their
first game Of the season from
the Dodgers. Nothing, however,

managed to gain a split by win
ing the second game, 80. But oh,
what first game. Leading lilo
after four innings with Sal Maglie

Giants still can't believe it.
1t Isn't a Record.
Not since June Z, 1906, when
the Cubs routed the famous
Christy Mathewson and went on
to humble them. 1870. have the
Giants been so Inundated. 1t

Manager Leo Durocher of winning
the game that he rested Yves
Westrum and Bob Elliott after
the third inning.
There is one consolation for the
Giants. Their 11-run squander is
not a record. Exactly ~ years
ago-June Is, 1925-the Cleveland
Indians were riding high on a
1873 lead only to see the Phila-
delphia Athletics warm up with
a run in the seventh inning and
catch fire with 10 more tallieS In
