Chicago batters. He allowed just 3 hits and 2 walks in 9 innings seeing his

ERA drop from 4.83 to 4.32. Philadelphia rapped out 7 hits for the

afternoon.

The losing pitcher was Milt Gaston(4-5). 'He was moving it around and

a no-hitter into the 7th inning at Griffith Stadium where the Cleveland

Indians beat the Washington Nationals by the score of 4 to 1.

much, just 2 hits and 7 walks in 9 innings reducing his ERA from 3.44 to

the 3rd inning, stroked a single bringing in a run in the 5th inning and

lined a one-base hit plating a run in the 7th inning. Boston had a chance in
