Braves Whip Brooks 8-7; Pressure Mounts
There's no rest today for the Milwaukee Braves who find their season-long "jinx team" the next obstacle in the rocky road to the National League flag.
By United Press
Relieved, but hardly fresh, after yesterday's pressure-filled, 8-7 triumph over the Brooklyn Dodgers, the Braves have another "toughie" in a two-night doubleheader with the Philadelphia Phillies. The fifth-place Phillies have a 10-8 edge over the Braves and are the only team in the circuit with a chance to beat them in their season series.
Giants Beat Redlegs
A's Whip Yanks
The third-place Cincinnati Red-legs fell three games off the pace with only 15 to play when Johnny Antonelli hurled a three-hitter to give the New York Giants an 8-0 triumph. Homers by Jackie Brandt and Deryl Spencer helped Antonelli score his 16th win and hand Nuxhall his 10th defeat. The Red-legs play a single game tonight with the Pittsburgh Pirates.
Frank Sullivan pitched a five-hitter for his 13th win as the Boston Red Sox knocked the Chicago White Sox from second to fourth place with a 4-1 decision. Jackie Jensen hit his 19th homer and Ted Williams had a double and single to lead Boston's 11-hit attack.
In the American League, the Kansas City Athletics defeated the New York Yankees, 7-4, and cut their lead to 10 games when the Cleveland Indians shaded the Baltimore Orioles, 2-1. Eddie Robinson and Lou Skizas homered for the Athletics, who kayoed Tom Struddivant with five runs in the first two innings.
Sam Jones struck out five and hurled a four-hitter as the Chicago Cubs defeated the Pittsburgh Pirates, 3-0, in the other N.L. game.
Billy Hoeft won his 18th game when Harmon Killibrew's error with the bases filled in the ninth presented the Detroit Tigers with a 3-2 victory over the Washington Senators.
Lineup Change Set For Today
Kansas University football coach Chuck Mather said there will be some alterations in his Jayhawker grid line-ups when the results of IBM grade card compilations are known today.
The cards were being run through machines from movies made of the last few days' practice sessions.

Nebraska's Willie Greenlaw was sixth on 163 in nine; Missouri's Joe Wynn placed eighth with 144 in 13.
