Washington turned the tables on the
Chicagos in mastery style Saturday after
noon at American Park the score being 3
TO 3 In the Senators favor. Fully $500
spectators were present, and their cheering
was almost incessant.
Wyatt Lee was on the rubber for the
Senators and the Kansas City lad never
pitched more brilliant game, when his
bad start is considered. 1t seemed az if the
Chicago batters could not locate the ball
at all and Were lucky when they made
fouls Nine of them struck out and there
were several others who had two strikes
called them when they retired on
chances to the infieid. Patterson, the star
of the American League in the percentage
column last season. did the twirling for
Chicago. and his delivery was of the peach
chamberlain variety to the home team.
Lee led the slaughter with two triples and
two singles, while Foster and DUNCAN were
close up with three safeties each, the for
mer also having triple and the latter a
double.
The game was an exact reversal of that
played Friday. In that game Griffith made
the Senators look very cheap and Carr1ck
was hit hard. while Saturday the white
sox got into the ''pillers' class and Pat
1erson's delivery was easy of solution.
Back of the twirlerS both teams played
splendid ball. but one error being registered
by each. Mcfarland making bad muf of
a fly right into his hands, while Quinn
slipped up a hot grounder which got by
him puzzIing bound. But Quinn made
the star play of the day and could have
been forgiven dozen errors after he pulled
1t off. 1t occurred in the seventh, and as
the out was completed every man, woman
and child inside the park arose to their
feet and cheered like mad. Shugart was
the batter. and. hitting at the ball little
late, drove whtzzing grOunder toward
right 1t was quite a for Quinn. but
he covered a world Of ground. and as the
sphere was going by he stuck out his left
hand and the ball was caught in the most
sensational manner. He had quite a time
recovering himself, but he finally did the
trick and threw the runner out at first.
Taking into consideration the speed at
which the ball was going and the ground
covered by Quinn. IL was one of the most
brilliant plays seen at the park SO far this
season.
Billy Clingman also bumped into a bril-
liant play. and 1t was on a chance directly
opposite to the one accepted by Quinn. 1t
was ball hit slowly to the left of the
pitcher, and CIingman had to run almost
10 the center of the diamond and beat a
fast runner to first with the sphere But
he did 1t in artistic fashion and was given
the happy hand.
Chicago started off in the first inning as
If ii intended repeating the dose admins
tered To the Senators the day before. After
Hoy had struck out, Jones placed a single
over second and Mertes followed with one
over Farrells head in center. The ball
went into the wOodpile. and when it was re-
covered the batter had crossed the plate
In the second Mcfarland drove the ball
ON a fly to the right field fence and Mercer
in trying to capture II, damned into the
barrier and was injured so badly that he
had to retire. The ball struck MERGERS
hands at the instant he hit the fence and
II was knocked from his enger fingers. 1t
was a plucky endeavor and the crowd
Cheered him as he was led TO the club
house. DUNCAN then went into right and
Everitt came into the game at first base.
The hit went down a home run, and it
was the visitors dying effort. seven ciphers

second by Farrell DUNCAN followed with

runs crossed the plate. Everitt then con-
