Indians Aim For Early Lead In Surprising Streak
The Cleveland Indians swept to a 13-6 win over the Senators to extend their major league lead to two and a half games as Lou Boudreau presses a winning culture. Mel Harder won his second, while Ken Keltner and Les Fleming provided key hits in a hot lineup. The Dodgers and Pirates provided a wild ninth inning as Vaughan and Stewart sparked late scoring, and Stan Musial homered twice for the Cardinals in an 8-7 extra-inning win. The Cubs beat the Giants 13-9 in Chicago with Babe Dahlgren 4-for-4, and the Reds beat the Phillies 6-5. The Tigers crushed the Yankees 7-2, the Browns beat the Red Sox 10-6, and Johnny Rigney ended the White Sox seven-game skid with a 5-2 win over the Athletics. The coffee plant note closes the piece with a curious wartime aside.
