A Brilliant Pitching Duel Between Kallenberg And LeBlanc Features 2-1 l/Vin

BY E. L. WILLIAMS

npnadian Press Staff Writer

YARMOUTII, N. S., Sept. 30—St. Stephen St. Croix edged out Yar- mouth Gateways 2-1 today in as brilliant a pitching duel as ever graced Maritime baseball and took their seventh tri-province amateur baseball championship in eight years in three straight games.

The New Brunswick team took the first two games in St. Stephen,

4-3 and 9-2.

Ken Kalienbtrrg, ace St. Crolx right hander, and Cflpie LeBlanc. slender little Gateways southpaw, gave only six hits between them to- day. Once again the Yin-mouth mound star outpitched his rival, four hits to two, and again hc lost. At St. Stephen LeBlanc granted tlve hits while his team found Kallcnberg for nine-and lost 4-3.

.~.L

llad One Run Lead

Four Gateways errors didn't fig- ure in the scoring but two bases on balls pnved the wiry for both l‘lll'lS. Thoy came after Yarniotith had taken ii one-run lend in the se\'enlh 0n a walk to LeBlanc and Doug Horton's triple to deep con- tre. The lcnd looked good enough to win the wny both teams were playing.

Iioyvc, first St. Croix batter in the eighth, worked LeBlanc for a walk, McLain sacrificed hini along and when "Baldy" Mofhiit, agile

if venerable St. Crolx first base-

man. grounded out, the Yarmflllth fans breathed easier. Lowe had taken third on the plny but two men were down,

"’ ,1 Strategy Fails

v ‘W?’

‘fheYa/rmotith board of strategy decided to pitss Miles, dangerous St. Crolx lend-off man, and pitch to McCnrroll, a loft-hand batter who frliied to hit LcBlnnos shoots with any consistency during the series.

The idea looked good; it looked still bcttcr when the little second baseman took the first strike with his bat on. his shoulder and then swung viciously at a low wide curve.

Miles went to second on the pitch. ‘

Then, McCnrroll got the next pitch midway down his bat and dropped it into right for a hit. Inwe and Miles both scored ens- lly and McCnrroll slid into sccohd on the throw from tho "outfield. That was n11, RfllllPy Moffatt pop- ping to Hailey Horton at short to end the liming, but it was enough. -, Kallenberg in Form

Tar-mouth could do nothing with Kallenberg. Working onsilv, bear- ing down plenty when he had to. he struck out nine Gateways brit-

tcrs, he weathered every threat. Ai

double play in the ninth may have helped him considerably but the way he was working was al- most a guarantee against a score. The game itself was brilliant throughout, too brilliant to be dimmed by Nate Baiirs two fum- bles at third and McIv0r's brace of errors at second. .

NEWARK, N. J.. Sept». 30—(AP) —Columbus' Red Birds, champions of the American Associatlomslam- med their way into a two-game lead in the little world series to- night by beating Newark Bears. the so-calied “wonder team" of the International League, 5-4, in a hectic ll-inning battle.

The score was a duplicate of that in the opener yesterday and, like the first. game, tonight's was marked by shabby fielding by both clubs.

The Bears made five errors to help along Columbus’ 10 hits while the Red Birds were charged with three miscues.

Three pitchers worked out for each team, the credit for the vic- tory finally going to Bill Me- Gec, 2i5-pound rlghthander from Batchtown, I11., who went in with the bases loaded in the eighth and finished the game,

Hitting Powers Of Yanks

(Note: This ll the third of l. series of stories analyzing the Yankees and Giants, and their world series chances.) (By Alan Gould. Associated Press Sports Editor)

NEW YORK, Sept. 3Q-—Like a sturdy football line standing help- lessiy while forward passes soar over their heads for long gains. the inner defence of the Giants may hear the discouraging whistle of base-hits headed for the wide open spaces-if you believe all you hear about the bombardment the Yankees intend to turn loose in the world series.

For the time being there is no dispute from this corner about the superior run-making power of the world champions. Passing for the moment a growing notion that the Yankees are a soft touch for first class southpaw pitching, we offer for today's speculation the evidence that the Giants have a pronounced superiority around the infield, collectively speaking.

Lou Gehrig, of coiuse. domin- ates first base as well as the Yankee attack. The iron man of New Rochelle ls still baseball's no. 1 first baseman, steady on the defence and a threat every time he steps to the plate.

Yet such are the vagaries of world series fortune that his rival on the Giants/long John Mc- Carthy, might steal the show. Mc- Carthy's comeback is one of the most startling developments of the Giants‘ late season surge.

Conceding Gehrig's marked ad- vantage on form, however, the fact remains that the rest of the Giants infield has a decided edge, both offensively and defensively.

The Yankees will go intc the series with the same combination they u=ed last year. whereas the Giants have two conspicious re- placements, with McCarthy in the spot where Teny hobbled through the 1936 series, on a bad knee, and Mel Ott a newcomer at third base. Travis Jackson closed his bis leag-tie playing career at third in the last world series. Lou Chiozza was obtained during the winter from the Phlllles to fill the gap but the pennant drive of the Giant: dates from the shift of Ott from right field to third base.

Rated off little more than a month's play Ott comes close to being the best third sacker in the mlllors. His Yankee rival, Robert (Red) Rolfe has a field edge. on paper, but he hasn't Ott's flair on the defence nor the Giant star's power at the plate.

The keystone combination of ~Dick Bartell and Burgess White- head is something for Giant rooters to cheer about. It out- shines the Yankee pair, Frankie Crdsetti and Tony Lazzerl,

Lflzzefl is one of the smartest inflelders iri baseball but he is Wlndill! up his career in the big show this year. on his own admis. sion. Don Heffner, a slick in. fielder. is Lazzierils understudy.

Bartell, on this year's record, excels Crosetti in every vital d9- partment of play.

If there is need for replacements the Giants have old slogan man, Blvndv Ryan. as well as Chiozza, but not-hing short of serious mtg. hap will afford either a chance to do infield duty. The Giants have no worries abut their first line of defence.
