that kind Of pitching al season"
And Casey Stengel. manager Of
the New York Yankees and the
Leaguers, blamed inability to hit
for most Of the American League
woes.
Casey also had some rough
rough words for an umpire and
the wind. He insisted Eddie Math-
ews of the Milwaukee Braves was
not hit by 1 pitched bali in the
fifth inning when the Nationals
scored two runs. He also declared
Larry Deby's ninth inning fly
would have been q home run ex-
cept for the brisk wind.
But he added:
1--WE got beat and we got beat
fairly"
Happiest guy FOR the Nationals
was Peewee Reese, Brooklyn short
stop. Although he had played in
seven previous games he never had
gotten a hit in Is times at bat.
Yesterday he Knocked out .
single and q double and drove In
two runs.
Dresser insisted be wasn't wor-
ried when the American Leaguers
threatened in the ninth because
tive had a couple of boys down
there getting ready
Dresser may not have been too
much concerned but there was one
worried individual. That was War
rem Giles, president Of the National
League.
The personable Giles became
considerably upset when Johnny
Mize crashed out = ninth-inning
single, hut he became bis affable
