By virtue of their win the Martins moved into undisputed possession of first place in league standings with two wins in two games. nesday's twin bill, the ttegtins scor ed an 8-7 win over the Cardinals, as Parson John Hardy survived a S-hit, 4-run outburst in the first frame to limit the losers to three hits the rest of the game. Incidently the Martins played the first inning with only 8 players, as some of their teammates were late. The Cards used walks to Fitzger ald and Critcher and singles by Piep hoff. Hall, Stalls, Hopkins and Sharpe to manufacture their four runs in the initial frame. The Mar tins bounced back in their half of the same inning to count three times on singles by Hardy and Green, a stolen base, Kimball's misjudged fly that went for three bases and an er ror. They added two more tallies in the second to take a 5-4 lead, and each team scored one apiece in the third to leave the Martins ahead, 6-5. In the fifth Grimes tripled and scored on a fielder's choice to run the winners' advantage to 7-8, which was evened by the Cardinals in the sixth as Sharpe singled and Critch er poled a four-bagger. With the count at 7-7, the winners put on the clincher in the last half of the final inning, as Co-Captain Hardy singled, advanced on a passed ball and came home on Co-Captain Grimes' long single, after Green had popped out to short. Harcom's hit could have gone for extra bases had it been needed, as it cleared the outfielder's head. Kimball had one hit for two times at bat and turned in the field ing gem of the game as he made a shoe-string circus catch of a liner off Hopkins' bat in the third. Hardy and Grimes both hit safely twice in four times at bat to share batting Dodgers Fall Before 10-3 On slaught of Fighting Braves The nightcap of Wednesday's twin bill saw the Dodgers and Braves op posing each other for the first time, and when the battle was over, the Braves had taken a 10-3 triumph. This game was featured by several extra base blows, and the six-hit pitching of Ham Price. Sam Zemon made his appearance as a pitcher for the Dodgers and pitched well for the losers, allow ing only three hits and two unearn ed runs in his four inning stay on the mound. However, he was un fortunately charged with the defeat, as his team was trailing when he left the game. Each team scored one run in the second frame, the Dodgers tallying on a home run by Tootsie Roberson and the Braveo drew blood as Crock ett was safe on an error, Joe Griffin was safe on a fielder's choice, and Hurley drove in Bud with a single The Brave went ahead in the fourth on a hard three-base smash by Saun ders and a wild throw-in from the outfield. Each team added two more runs in the sixth to give the ultimate winners a 4-3 advantage. This con cluded the scoring for the Dodgers while the Braves unleased their pow er to bat around in their half of the honors for their team with Kimball. Dan Sharpe hit two for two for a perfect day and Shelbon Hall batted .667 for the game, to lead the losers. The box: Martins Ab R H Simpson, ss 4 1 1 J.
