Nichols Shows'51 Form In Winning 2nd Game
By UNITED PRESS
Curveballer Chet Nichols' second straight victory left critics of the Milwaukee Braves' big winter deal with the New York Giants at a loss for words today.
Nichols, flashing the form that made him the National league's earned run leader in 1951, pitched an eight-hitter last night to pace the Braves to a 4-2 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates. It was the Braves' seventh triumph in nine games during which opponents have scored a total of nine runs.
The 23-year old left-hander's return to form came just as the Braves were defending themselves for including lefty Johnny Antonelli in the deal which brought them outfielder Bobby Thomson from the Giants. Nichols lost his first three decisions for the Braves while Anquilini has reeled off four victories five games for the Giants.
Catcher Charley White broke a 1-1 tie with a 2-run double in the fourth inning when the Braves assumed a 4-1 lead. Nichols, who walked only three batters, pitched his way out of trouble in the seventh when he struck out Bob Skinner with the tying runs on base.
The New York Yankees defeated the first-place Detroit Tigers, 5-3, in 10 innings on Yogi Berra's two-run homer, and the Boston Red Sox routed the Baltimore Orioles, 9-1, in American league night games. The Cleveland Indians rallied for six runs in the ninth inning and won, 8-7, over the Washington Senators in the 11th, and the Philadelphia A's beat the Chicago White 3-2, in afternoon games.
one-hitter in 19 days as the Philadelphia Phillies downed the Cincinnati Reds, 8-1, in the other National league game last night while the Brooklyn Dodgers crushed the St. Louis Cardinals, 10-3, and the Giants beat the Chicago Cubs, 6-3, in afternoon contests.
Roberts yielded a leadoff homer to Bobby Adams and then retired the next 27 batters in order for his fourth win of the year. Roberts, who missed the first perfect game in the majors since Charley Robertson's classic in 1922, also pitched a one-hitter against the Braves on April 29.
Johnny Podres scored his fourth straight victory for the Dodgers although touched for 10 hits by a Cardinal team which has lost 12 straight games at Brooklyn's Ebbets field. Jackie Robinson had three hits, including a double and
triple, in Brooklyn's biggest offensive of the season.
Monte Irvin hit two homers and Willie Mays, Hank Thompson, and Ebba St. Claire one each to lead the Giants to their fifth straight win. Larry Jansen received credit for his second victory although Marv Grissom pitched the last three innings.
Berra's sixth nomer, giving him the AL lead, made it three in a row for the Yankees, and gave Tom Morgan his third straight win. Morgan was hammered for 10 hits but shut out the Tigers after they scored all their runs in the second inning. Irv Noren's two-run homer tied the score in the eighth.
Southpaw Bill Henry had easy sailing to his second win behind Boston's 11-hit barrage which ended the Orioles' three-game winning streak. Billy Goodman tripled and Harry Agganis doubled in a six-run third inning which clinched the victory for Boston.
Al Rosen's run-scoring double provided the Indians with their winning tally after Dave Philley's double capped a six-run ninth inning rally that drove Mickey McDermott to cover. McDermott had pitched a one-hitter until the ninth, Pete Suder's ninth-inning double climaxed Philadelphia's two-run uprising that handed Chicago's Virgil Trucks his third loss.
New York —(U.P.)— Promoter Jim Norris said he lay hoped to match champion Bobo Olson and top-ranked Joey Guardello for a middleweight title fight at Madison Square Garden in September or October, "if neither 'loses before then."
