L
DETROIT, Aug. %. Clarkson may have
| pitched finer game of bail than that of to-day,
but it would be impossible to make any one of
the four thousand people who saw him believe it.
| His support was superb, Williamson's two fun
bles being the only visitors errors OF any de-
scription. For six innings Detroit retired in
quick succession, the only one who reached first
| in that time being put out on double play, and
at no time during the game did Detroiter see
second. Whites lovely base bit in the eighth
awaited nothing, as he was forced out by Hanlon,
who was put out at first at the same time. In the
ninth the side struck out. making total of ten
strike-outs. The home club generally played
| we'll. but their errors were costly. Brouthers's
| muff of thrown ball in the fifth left Arson
safe on first, and allowed Clarkson and Ryan to
score. In the seventh the third chance for put
out was lost through Whites wild throw, and
subsequent hit brought IN the run. A single
and double gave the visitors their only earned
run in the first. This is the first time the De-
troits have been shut out this season. Score:
