srnport Shut Savannah Out Without
Hit for Six Innings-The Home
ream Lacked Manning to Brace
Them Up-savannah Loses a Few
points But sti1l Good Third in the
Race.
They came, they saw, they conquered.
That is what Teddy's Tigers did yester-
5ov and consequently Teddy is all smiles
once again.
The game was pitchers battle, in
,rbich honors were about even. Both
men did great work, but Nashville gave
Tucid perfect support, while Savannah
made five errors, three of which lost
them the game.
Lucid had the locals completely at his
mercy for six innings, not allowing them a
single hit till the seventh. He sent
several men to first on balls however, but
none of them were able to get as far
around as second.
Savannah lost an opportunity of tying
the score in the eighth inning, through
fine failure of the cOachers to coach. Can
naughton was thrown out at the home
Mate and McGarr was caught at third
base, retiring the side with Klusman at
bat.
Mauning's absence from the team
seemed 10 have depressing effect on the
team, as ConnaughtOn was a dismal fail
ure as a second baseman, and made an
error on the only chance he had.
