Hill Team Socks
Praither Ouifit
And Wins, 13-9
{ By HARRY DAVIS
| Hill continued his undefeated
'pace in the “Y” league yesterday
jafiemc(m when he slapped a de
;f('at on the second place Praither
‘clan by the score of 13 to 9.
' Enraged by a lone run scored
in the first run by Captain Howell
Praither himself, Hill’s huskies
started in the third to show their
prowess and from then until the
end the game went entirely in
their favor,
Hits for the day was even, both
winners and losers cetting 14.
Andy Anderson, the league lead
ing pitcher, kept his well scat
tered, however, and received good
support from his mates to keep
the score down,
Another feature of the gams
was that Praither had eleven men
on the field while Hill had only
nine. It seems that should have
helped the losers in that ithey
had "a greater defense for Hill
and his mates to go through, but
it didn’t.
Lead Hitters
Hitting honors for the day went
to Anderson and Rosenthal, both
collecting three safe knocks out
of four trips to the plate, One of
Anderson’s being good for two
bhases. -
The win entrenched Hill more
firmly in first place and at the
same time sent Praither down the
ladder a notch or two ints a tie
with Hancock for second place-
Hill now holds a game and one
half lead over the second place
team,

‘ Win Ball Games With
- -
Minimum of Effort
" By GAYLE TALBOT, JR.
(Associated Press Sports Writer)
Gabby Street's St. Louis Cardi
nals have developed an extraordi
nary faculty for winning ball
games with a minimgm of effort.
Their ability to take advantage
of every break, rather than their
batting punch, has them three
games in front of the MNational
league field today.
For example, the league cham
pions collected only five hits off
two Boston pitchers vyesterday
while their own curving corps
was being nicked for eleven, yet
they took the Braves into camp,
5 to 4, in opening their latest
eastern tour. \
After Big Ed Brandt had held
them helpless for six innings,
they bunched a double with
three bases on balls and two
Boston errors to score four times
in the seventh. Then Chick Ha
fey came through with a homer
in the eighth, and that was the
ball game. It marked the fifth
straight victory for the Cards
since they took a series of lick
ings from the Braves out west.
The Giants, meantime, contin
ued to win bhehind great pitching,
but they couldn’t gain an inch on
the flying leaders. Carl Hubbell
gave them their sixth successive
win at the expense of the Pitts
burgh Pirates, 3 to 1, allowing
only six hits and striking out
five. But for a pair of infield
errors in the first inning the
Giant southpaw would have
scored a shutout.
% Lose Ground
The Chicago Cubs lost ground
when they could get no Detter
‘than an even break in two houts
,with the' Brooklyn* Robins. Dazzy
Vance, the veteran speedballer,
was his old sglf in the frst
game as he turned back the
Hornsby clan, 7 to 5. He struck
out 11 of them, every man in the
Chicago line-up suceumbing at
least one. Pat Malone took charge
of things in the_nightcap, letting
the Robins down: with five scat.
tered hits and blanking them, 8
to 0. Hack Wilson belted his
seventh homer in the opener and
Rogers Hornsbhy hit No. 9 in the
second-
Don Hurst’s big bat and the
wildness of Cincinnati’s pitchers
were prime factors in the Phil.
lies’ 5 to 4 victory over Colonel
Dan Howley's pupils. Hurst
drove in four runs with a Homer
and single to tie the score. Four
successive walks® by three Cin
cinnati pitchers shoved the win.
ning run across in the ninth.
The day's festivities were con.
fined to the National league as
the four eastern clubs of the
American league traveled west.
