catches.
Sent Himself to the Bench.
Opposed to Orth on the rubber at the
start off was Manager Clarke Griffith, and
he had the unique experience Of ordering
himself to the bench after the Senator's
batting matinee in the third inning. After
the game Griffith said he had never tried
harder to puzzle the Senators, but the
Washington lads simply had on their bat

their good start. Strang at third. Davis at
short and Daily at second fielded In sensa-
tional style, several Of their stops and
throws bordering on the marvellous.
1t is question whether such a record
as the Senators made against Griffith in the
third inning has ever been eQualed against
pitcher Of like reputation. Not a single
was made, but three home runs and a
double scored the five runs.
After the Chicagos had gone out in one
two-three order in their first turn at the
bat the Senators started the ball rolling
with three runs. Ryan, the first man up,

the circuit of the bases. Strang made a
great stop OF Keister's line drive, and threw
the little fellow out at first. Coughlin then
bobbed up with a hit over the left field
fence for a home run. After Carey had
famed Lee hit to left field for double,
and Clarke laced one over the left field
fence for another homer, making five runs
in all.
Garvin Goes In.
Garvin then relieved Griffith in the fourth,
and 1t seemed as though his medicine would
be the same as administered to the cham
pion's manager as Ryan, the first man up,
also hit over the left field fence for a home
rum After that the elongated Texan set
tied down and did better work, although
not OF the best. After shutting out the
Washngtons in the fifth and sixth innings
