SCHEFFEL.S United Press Staff Correspondent NEW YORK, May 17 OLE) Casey Stengel, popular manager of the amazing Boston Braves, today was the proudest and yet the most acutely embarrassed man in the major leagues. Stengel is on the fence in a singular situaiton. His Braves have soared into a second-place tie with the Cardinals in the Na tional league on the strength of 11 victories in 19 starts, an achievement that is one of the most surprising developments of the infant season. Yet all the this time Stengel has been hospitalized after a pre season auto accident, and other hands have been holding the reins on the rollicking Braves. True, the cagey Casey was the one who shaped the Braves into their present pres-ent effective pattern during spring training, but it must bring a wry grin to the bedridden pilot now that a substitute is supplying the spark that's making the hub team travel. . The Braves looked like champions cham-pions yesterday as they allowed the Reds only one run . per game in a double victory. 3-1 and 6-1. that hoisted them another notchl in their current rapid climb. Red Barrett backed Cincinnati down with four hits in the first game and doubled with loaded bases to provide the winning runs in the second inning. A grand-slam homer by Phil Masi in the third inning of the nightcap provided the impetus behind Jim Tobin's seven-hit mound, success. Brooklyn increased its pace-making pace-making margin to three games by caging the Cubs, 4-0 and 3-2. Ed. Held held Chicago to five hits to outpitch Lon Warneke and notch his second victory in the first game. Bobo Newsom, who suceeded Kirby Higbe on the hill in the seventh, singled home Billy Herman with the winning run in hte same inning of the nightcap. The Phillies split a doublehead-er doublehead-er with the Cardinals before an other amazing crowd 30,823 at Shibe park. St. Louis won the i first game, 4-3, after an 11-in I ning struggle, but the Phillies notched the nightcap, 2-1. Manager Mel Ott homered for the third; successive day as the Giants whipped the Pirates, 3-1, j and then bowed, 2-1. Washington's surging Senators racked up the only double win in the American league, 7-1, and 10-6, 10-6, over the Tigers to climb into third. The largest crowd of the season at Detroit 23,399 fans watched Early Wynn wind a five-hitter five-hitter around Detroit, as Washington Wash-ington walloped out 11 hits, including in-cluding Mickey Vernons two-run homer, in the first game. The Yankees slammed the Browns, 7-3, in the first game, but bowed, 4-J, in the second (10 innings). Chicago divided with Boston. The White Sox took the first game, 4-2, and Boston stole, the second by an identical score. Jesse Flores registered his fifth straight victory as the Athletics Ath-letics won over Cleveland, 5-3, although al-though he needed mound assist ance from Roger Wolff. Roy Cullcnbine's homer in-Jthe eighth with none on provided the Indians In-dians with a 3-2 decision in the nightcap. NATIONAL LEAGUE W. L. P.C.
