JONES PITCHES
HARLIN TO
5T01 VICTORY
Leisftner Hit Hard in 5th
Inning; Wagner Out of
Brownsville Lineup
Due to Injuries
Red Jones proved too much for
Brownsville batters and the slugging
Harlingen nine drove Rube Leissner
from the mound in the fifth to win a
6 to 1 victory over Brownsville main-
taining the Harlingen team in the leid
of the league.
Three of the San Benito runs were
made in the fifth inning wfhen the
team batted around. Strickland reach-
ed first on an error and the next four
batters Phipps Baker. Flynn and Par-
tain* singled in rapid succession Strick-
land Phipps and Baker scoring. Welder
went out at first on a grounder Adair
flied to short Wolsley walked and
Jones went out second to first ending
the fateful inning.
The first Harlingen run was made in
the fourth on a base on .balls issued
Welde who scoed on a safe blow by
Wolsley.
Harlingen scored once more in tthe
sixifh the tally com»ng on a safe hit
by Strickland following by a single by
rftipps.
Brownsville’s lone run came in the
fourth inning and resulted from a
home run by Balshaw. During the re-
mainder of the 'game Jones had the
team almost at his mercy. In the first
Brownsville threatened to score but
was cut short on a drive to first by
Conally after Pratt doubled.
Wagner regular Brownsville sJhort-
stop was missing from the lineup due
to injuries to his hands and it was ne-
cessary for Manager Rusteberg to bring
Albert Leissner in from the outfield
and use Gernandt in the outfield. Two
costly errors weie charged to Leissner
in playing short. I
Eight Brownsville batters whiffed
t£e air while Leisner. and Webb who

: mer rains fickle in casting their sup-
. port along pennant leaders^ of both

over baseball diamonds in many corners

corsairs were Idle Giants rode on the
wings of a home run by George Kelly t
to u triumph over Chicago 4 to 3.1
Kelley’s homer sent three runs over the
plate in the eighth.
Five hits proved sufficient for the
Cincinnati Reds to pile up theif seventh
straight victory at the expense of the
Boston Braves 4 to 3. A wrild pitch by
Barnes scored Roush with the winning
run after he had tripled in the sixth.
Brooklyn iallied behind Dagzy Vance
in the last two innings of a game with
■St. Louis and then checked a counter
spurt by the Cards i nthe ninth to pull
out a victory 9 to 4. Vance fanned the
side in the first inning and collected
five more strikeputs in the later frames.
Only one game was played in the
American league the Boston Red Sox 1
amassing fifteen hits off Karr to beat
the Cleveland Indians 7 to 2. Flagstead
led the attack with four hits in four
