By GAYLE TABLOT

DETROIT, Oct. 4-—(AP) -— Big gang Greenberg crashed a. tower- ing home run into the left field stands with‘ two teammates on base in the fifth inning of today's sec- ond World Series game to defeat Chicago Cubs, 4-1, and bring De- troit Tigers back snarling into the thick of the fight for the champ-

ionship‘. _ Han 'a pay-off clout. the second such vital smash he had made in
