MONDAY, SEPTEMBER 27, 1948 THE DAILY TIMES-GAZETTE | Big League | Baseball Yesterday By RALPH RODEN Associated Press Sport Writer Boston Braves are "in" and Cle- veland Indians are brushing their feet on the welcome mat spread for the American League's entry in the 1948 world series. Billy Southworth's Braves gained admittance to the world series Sun- day when they clinched their first National League pennant since 1914, The Jndians moved a game in front of the runner-up Boston Red Sox and New York Yankees in the ténsion-jammed American League Cleveland, behind the brilliant five-hit pitching of Bobby Feller, downed the Detroit Tigers 4-1 while the Yanks dumped the Red Sox 6-2 in the third game of their cutlthroat series. If the Indians win three of their remaining five games, the Sox or the , Yankees would have to win all of their five to beat out Cleveland. Red Sox Have Chance ~The Red Sox, although they have lost three out of their last four games, are in a better position to overhaul the Indians than the de- fending world champion Yankees, who finish out on the road. Boston and Cleveland play at home for the rest of the season. Feller was supreme. The big right-hander. in: bagging his sixth straight victory and 18th of the year, fanned nine and didn't walk a batter. Joe Gordon gave Feller a work- ing margin when he hammered Hal Newhouser for his 31st homer with a mate on in the trird inning. New- houser, seeking his 20th win, was fagged with his 12th loss. Another Homer For Henrich A capacity crowd of 69,755 fans watched by the Yankees make it two out of three over the flounder- ing Sox at the Yankee stadium. Tommy Henrich sent the Yankees off to a good start when he socked his 25th homer with Phil Rizzuto on base in the first inning off lefty Mel Parnell. The Yankees sewed it up in the third with two more runs. Sou.hpaw Tommy Byrne stymied the Sox on five hits in recording his | sixth straight victory and eighth of the year. Braves Are "In" | Meanwhile, Boston is toasting the | Braves, particularly Bob Elliott, | Vern Bickford and Nels Potter and of course Southworth. | The Braves assured themselves of the National League flag by nosing out New York Giants 3-2 on El- | liott's three-run first-inning homer | off Larry Jansen. Bickford blanked | the Giants until the eighth when | he faltered and gave up two runs. | Potter stepped in the beach, snuffed | out the rally and safeguarded the | slender margin 'the remaining dis- tance, Boston is six games ahead of the runner-up Brooklyn Dodgers. The Braves have six games to play and the Dodgers five. Dodgers Hold 2nd The Dodgers turned back Phila- delphia 5-1 to protect their half- game lead over the third-place St. Louis Cardinals. Gene Hermansky's two-run triple and a homer by Roy Campanella was all the batting sup- port Ralph Branca needed in post- ing his 14th victory. St. Louis, behind, the four-hit pitching of Lefty Al Brazle, stopped Chicago Cubs, 5-2, Pittsburgh Pirates banged their way to within a half-game of. the Cards- by taking a twin bill from Cincinnati Reds 8-6 and 8-5. Pitts- burgh's Ralph Kiner blasted his 40th homer to highlight the night- cap triumph. In the remaining American League game Randy Gumpert pitched the last - place Chicago White Sox to a six-hit 3-0 triumph over St. Louis Browns.
