Dickson Pitches Four-Hitter As Pirates Blank Phils, 2-0 PHILADELPHIA, Pa., May 10 UP.— Murry Dickson pitched four-hit ball today as the Pittsburgh Pirates defeated the Philadelphia Phillies, 2-0. The veteran righthander was never in real danger although bases on balls and errors gave the National League champions chances in the fourth and eighth innings. Del Wilber, Phillies catcher, received a deep cut under his right eye in a collision with Wally Westlake, third baseman of the Pirates, in a play at home in the second inning and was forced to retire. The wound required several stitches. West-lake attempted to score from third base on Dicksons fly to Richie Ashburn and Wilber had to dive for him to make the putout. The score by innings: R H E Pirates 000 002 000—2 6 1 Phillies 000 000 000—0 4 2 Dickson 4-1 and Fitzgerald; Church, Konstanty 9 and Wilber, Silvestri 3. Losing pitcher, Church 2-2. Home run — Bell 3d.
