PROVIDENCE AVERAGES

Since the break In the winning streak
by the Montreals. the Grays have gone
wrong apparently. and not game has
been won since four OF the five games
played having been lost and one tied. One
reason for the slump can be found In the
big drop In the batting OF the team, the
falling of In this respect over the pre-
vious week being most marked. Every
member OF the team excepting Wagner
and Brown dropped hard. Mcmahon los
ing ZIG points from his phenominal aver
age OF 526 OF a week ago. Bean lost l6
points. Cassidy s, Corridor II, Sutor Sui
Ivan 7, Connor 3. George Sullivan T. Conn
5. and Kelly IL. Wagner gained 2 points,
Brown 21 and Armbuster held his own.
This falling off In batting is responsible
for the loss OF at least two games OF the
four dropped. The team batting average
for the week was only .1s4. Bean being
the only one TO hit above 200.
The visiting clubs also did very little
hard work with the stick. their average
being but 1885, but they punched the hits
better. not much, but enough TO turn the
score
High fielding continues to mark the work
in this department, but In sacrifice hitting
and stolen bases the figures are not what
they should be. The infrequency OF long
hits is also marked. since Foster left the
team. six home runs being the total show
ing for the whole team the entire season.
while Foster had nearly double that num-
