Dodgers Crush Cubs 10 to Gain on Giants in Standings
The Brooklyn Dodgers routed the Chicago Cubs 10-2 to close within three games of the idle New York Giants. The Dodgers won largely on a fourth inning outburst, with Whitey Ford limiting the Indians and Roy Sievers setting a club home run mark in Washington. Mickey Mantle and Vic Wertz figured in New York’s 2-1 win, while Philadelphia edged St Louis 6-4 and Detroit fell 16-6 to Washington. The Yankees also trimmed Cleveland’s lead by a game, and Pennant races stretched across the league in midweek action.
