Red Sox Falter

Mel Parnell throw a curve ball past Birdie Tebbetts and the Red Sox into tie with the Yankees, as Ray Scarborgh and the Senators won the ball game, 2 to 1, in Washington last night.

The Yankees knocked the first half-game off the Red Sox lead by beating the Philadelphia Athletics, 7 to 5, yesterday afternoon in the Yankee Stadium, reliefers Page and Kellner getting the win and loss.

Chuck Stobbs and Scarborough had hatched four-hitters through the first eight and one half innings, though the Sox had scored once, in the sixth, and the Senators were scoreless.

After yielding three singles, a sacrifice, and the tying run in the last of the Youth, Stobbs was replaced by Kinder and then by Parnell. The 49-game inning combination got one man out-true-footed Eddie Robinson tried to steal game.
