last look tonight at the home of
the team they couldn’t beat for
the National League pennant.
The Brooklyn Dodgers rep-

failed to snake in their move
from Boston, where they lang-
uished in seventh place a year
ago.
With four meetings remaining
—two in Brooklyn tonight and
tomorrow and two in Milwaukee
later this month—the Dodgers

ton. Last year when the Braves
performed out of Boston the
Dodgers beat them 18 times.
Milwaukee has clinched its sea-
son’s series with every other
team except the St. Louis Cardi-
nals and they lead the Redbirds
10-6.

its fattest margin of the season

days before the season ends. The
Dodgers didn't make it last year
until five days from the finish.
Yesterday Brooklyn ended a
perfect home season against the
Cardinals—11 victories in 11
games—with a 12-5 decision
despite five St. Louis home runs.
New York shaded Chicago 10-9 in
the only other National League
action.
The New York Yankees mov-
ed 9% games in front of falter-
ing Chicago after tripping the
White Sox 3-2 at Chicago. Cleve-
land resumed its winning ways
at the expense of the Boston Red
Sox 13-3 and Detroit defeated
Philadelphia 7,5. St. Louis and
Washington weren’t scheduled.
The third placp Indians are
within a game of the White Sox
and 10 % behind New York.
The St. Louis home runs at
Brooklyn were all off Preacher
Roe, who survived only because
his mates backed him with a 17-
hit assault. The record for home
runs off one pitcher in a game is
six. Steve Bilko hit two, Stan Mu-
sial, Harry Elliott and Rip Repul-
ski one each. The outburst ran the
Cards’ homer total for the year
to 120, a club record.
Sal Maglie, onetime ace of the
Giants, failed again against the
Cubs but the New Yorkers came
from behind and won in the
eighth with a gift run. Jim Rhodes
walked, moved to third on a
throwing error and scored after
an outfield fly. Ralph Kiner, Roy
Smalley and Bubba Church hit
homers in the losing Chicago
cause.
Mickey Mantle's 17th homer
proved the margin of difference
for the Yankees over the White
Sox. For a brief spell it looked
as if the Chicagoans were going
to come up with one of their pat-
ented late-inning rallies in the
seventh but they could score only-
one run after loading the bases
with none out.
Sam Mele opened with a single
and moved to third on Connie
Ryan’s double. Johnny Sain re-
placed Whitey Ford and walked
Ferris Fein. Sherm Lollar hit to
third baseman Gil McDougald,
who fumbled the ball but re-
covered in time to get a force out.
Billy Martin, trying for a double
play, threw Jim Rivera's ground-
er into left field and Fain tried to
score from second base. But Mc-
Dougald recovered the ball and
nipped Fain at the plate. Virgil
Trucks fouled out to end the
threat.
The loss was Trucks’ seventh
against 18 victories. Ford got ,
credit for his 16th triumph. He’s
lost five.
Early Wynn struck out 10 in
winning his 16th game for Cleve-
land. The 13-hit Indian attack
included Al Rosen’s 36th home
run.
