Antonelli May Mean Pennant For Braves
Lefty John Antonelli, 20, from Rochester who had a modest two-season record, shut out Cincinnati 5–0 in the second game of a doubleheader, boosting Boston toward a pennant chase. Earlier, Boston had already won the opener 4–2 as Bickford outpitched, and the win helped move the Braves to third in the NL standings behind Philadelphia and St. Louis. Del Ennis starred for the Phillies with a grand slam in the opener and a two-run homer in the nightcap, while the Dodgers beat the Cubs 7–2 behind Newcombe’s five-hitter. In the AL, the Yankees swept the White Sox to close the gap on Detroit, and Washington’s Sem Mele drove in four runs in both ends of a doubleheader against the Browns.
