Once more piece of good news came east
from ST. Louis last night. telling of another
victory of the Senators over the Browns of
that city by the one-sided score Of II to /.
There is considerable. satisfaction in this
second victory of the trip by the Senators
as they are now even with the aristocrat tic
Bostons who have been able to gather in
but two victories thus far on the journey
around the western circuit.
Al. Orth was on the rubber for the Sena-
tors and opposed to him was Frank Dono-
hue, both twirlers having been with the
Phillies last season. Orth was in unusually
good form and was given almost perfect
support, one error by Clarke being the only
misplay of the day. The Browns have some
unusually good hitters among them, hut
six hits, one of which was a double, was
the best they could do with the delivery Of
Smiling AL" On the other hand the Sena-
tors had on their batting clothes and lit
Donohue almost at will, 13 safe drives with
total of p bases. being the sum total of
the days work with the stick after the
ninth inning had been completed.
Coughlin's Good Work.
Scranton Bill" Coughlin had the honor
OF leading the Senators in yesterdays slug
sing bee, his record being two singles and
home run. Little Billy Keister and Al.
Orth were close up, the former with a dou-
BILE and home run, while the foxy twirler
had a triple and a homer. Lee mana geti to
locate a triple. but the Mighty Del" had
to be content with a pair of singles. Clarke
and Nolverton were the only senator's who
had ciphers in the base hitting column.
Wolverton Benched.
Besides batting weakly the Browns were
somewhat remiss in their fielding, four cost
~ misplays being charged against them
Wolverton ran counter to a decision of
the umpire in the ninth inning and was put
out of the game, and now there are two
senators who are likely to hear from Presi-
dent Johnson. A grounder was knocked to
Wolverton and he thought lis throw beat
the runner at first, but Umpire Connolly de-
clded differently. The decision angered
Wolverton, and as result of mis- argument
ne was sent to the bench. Umpire Connolly
will report the occurrence to President
Johnson and the chances are that WOlyer-
ton viii have a chance to get into condi-
ton by being laid off for a week.
The st. Louis boys got off well, scoring a
run in the first inning after the Senators
had been shut out. Hemphill drew a base
on balls and Heidrick followed with a long
drive to center which Ryan pulled down
Hemphiu had almost reached second and a
try was made to get the ball to first ahead
of him
Ryan passed the ball to Coughlin, and
the latter threw poorly to first. the ball
also getting by Clarke. who backed I'D
carey. HemPhill retouched first and went
back to second in safety. scoring a mo-
ment later on Anderson's timely hit to right
center. This ended ST. Louis work on the
day and for the remainder Of the game
they were kept busy chasing the hits of
the Senators.
More Batting.
In the second inning the Loftusites gath
cred in three tallies, the result Of good
hard hitting Wyatt Lee started business
with triple, and Clarke hit to Donohue.
the latter making a bad throw, and Clarke
reached second in safety, Lee being held
on third. Orth followed with his beautiful
triple, scoring Lee and Clarke and a min
ute later scored himself as Wolyerton was
being put out at first
The Washingtonians rested up for one
inning, but in the fourth began business
again. scoring three runs. Clarke was
passed to first and Mccormick fell down
on Orth's drive Ryan followed with a
single into center that Heidrick allowed
to get away from him, Clarke and Orth
scoring, while Jimmy anchored on second
Wolverton sacrificed Ryan to third and
on Delehanty's long fly to Burkett Ryan
raced home.
The fifth and sixth innings went by with
out a run. but in the seventh the Senator's
hung up two more, Delehanty hitting for
single and Keister slamming the bail over
the fence for home run.
In the eighth Ortiz made his home run
and in the ninth Keister was hit by the
pitcher, and Coughlin followed with his
hOmerun drive.
