The work of Heine Spies, once the low of
his friends. is giving them a great deal of
pain. His loss of the great game on Monday
by the "rockiest' throw ever seen on a dia
mond, was followed yesterday by plays which
all but lost the game. In the third inning
he went to sleep off first base and was thrown
out This made a difference of at least two
runs in the inning. In the fourth he went
after wild pitch so .lazily that he permitted
a man to score all the way from second
base. His hitting, too amounts to nothing
any more. The 'fans" are grieved at the
situation, but the demand, is emphatic that
Spies be played on the bench until he at
least gets rested up. III
