Increase Lead In League With Two

More Wins Over Braves

New York, July 26.

The Brooklyn Dodgers, using brilliant pitching instead of their usual heavy hitting, smashed back the second place Milwaukee Braves twice today, 3-2 and 2-1, to take a big seven and a half game lead in the National League pennant race.

The combined six hit pitching of Clem Labine and Bob Millikin captured the first game for the Brooks who now have won 13 of their last 15 games, and Carl Erskine captured the nightcap with a fancy five- hitter.

The Braves, who have lost six of their last nine games in a slump that im- perils their pennant chances, apparently had the opening game in hand behind the fine pitching of Johnny Antonelli, who had a 2-0 lead until the Dodgers erupted for three runs in the eighth with a triple by Pee Wee Reese and a double by Jackie Robinson highlighting the rally.
