              Litwtiler???s 4-Master Beats Brooks: 9/22/41 Phillies Bow  To Brooklyn Curt Davis Holds Cellar Club To 6 Hits, Two By Litwhiler X fi^ur 7 By TED MEIER Philadelphia, Sept. 22 (JP)???Curt Davis curve-balled the Phillies into submission 5 to 0 today to put the Brooklyn Dodgers \Vz games ahead of the idle St. Louis Cardinals in! the red hot National League pennant race. While Davis kept six hits well. scattered and did not permit any- f one to reach third, the Dodgers * jumped on Frank Melton lor four big runs in the sixth and coasted in with an easy shutout victory. A crowd of 8,434, making a threeday total of 62,147, saw the Dodgers finish the week-end series with a 4-games to one edge and chalk up their 17th victory in 20 starts against the Phils this season. About the only excitement today, other than eight Brooklyn players batted in that big sixth, came* in i the second inning when the Phils protested that Pee Wee Reese's single over third which scored Ducky Medwick with the first Dodger tally, was foul. The Phils lost the argument, of course, but the dispute led to Heinie Mueller, utility inflelder, being chased off the Phils' bench by Umpire Beans Reardon. Medwick was on third by virtue of his two bagger and Cookie Lavagetto's infield out when Reese came to bat. Merrill May fielded Pee Wee's tap near the bag and insisted it was in foul territory. Umpire Jocko Conlan saw it otherwise, although May, aided by catcher Ben Warren, beefed vigorously. For the next three innings Melton kept on even terms with Davis, but in the sixth the Brooks chased over their four big runs to sew up the game. Billy Herman, showing no effects of the leg injury that forced him out of the doubleheader yesterday, started things off by slamming a double off the left field wall. Danny Murtaugh made a diving stab for Pete Reiser's pop toward second, but the ball fell out of his glove and went for a single, Herman holding second. Dolph Camilli slapped a double into right, scoring Herman. Medwick was purposedly walked to fill the bases, but Lavagetto spoiled this strategy by dumping a Texas leaguer into right to score Reiser and Camilli. Melton's wild pitch let Medwick reach third and then Reese brought him home with the last Brooklyn tally on a long fly. After that the Brooks couldn't do a thing before Melton and southpaw Frank Hoerst, who pitched the ninth inning. Meantime Davis, who gave up j only one base on balls???and that! one an intentional pass???sailed along without trouble to chalk up his 13th victory against seven defeats. In only two innings did the Phils threaten. In the fifth May smacked a two-bagger to right with one away. Bobby Bragan tapped to Davis, and May was run down between third and second, Bragan reaching second. Warren was then purposely walked, but Melton popped to Reese to end the threat. In the ninth, singles by Stan Benjamin and Litwhiler put men on first and second with two out, but May grounded out to end the game.
