The Washingtons wound up their series
of four games with the Detroits yesterday,
and scored another win, the figures being
S to {. Yesterdays victory made the fourth
straight from the Tigers
The contest was loosely played in the
field, five errors being made, but at the
bat the Senators We're all there, and, hit
ting at the right time. drove enough runs
over the plate to score a victory. The De-
trots fielded very well, but were weak with
the bat, this being especially noticed when
they had runners on the bases. Dick Har-
ley made a splendid catch in left field of
OrtL's long fly and Holmes threw home Sc
accurately that he nailed one runner at
the plate by about twelve feet.
Coughlin worked his famous "hidden-
ball trick on Dick Harley In the first in
ming and paid the penalty with spiking
that sent him out of the game. Coughlin
made dash for the bag when neither Of
the umpires We're watching and Harley
jumped for the base like flash. Bill was
between Harley and the sack, and caught
the full weight of the latters body Har-
ley's spikes scraped Coughlins leg from the
knee TO the ankle, tearing the stockings
and flesh into shreds. Coughlin certainly
caught Harley mapping. and 1t IS pity he
was not rewarded with an out. Coughlin
was limping somewhat last night, but 1t is
expected that he will be in the game at
Cleveland tomorrow. His retirement from
the game yesterday sent Keister to third
and Orth into right field. Both substitutes
did well although Keister made one bad
throw to first. The little fellow had the
honor of again leading the Senators at the
bat, getting three singles. But Bill Clarke
was the sIugger, his double and home run
scoring runs each time. Doyle also got in
a couple of nice hits. but fell down twice
on grounders in his endeavor to make
F1l- IL t,,I,-
the FANS he was vigorously applauded
on his last turn at the bat, a demonstration
that showed his misplays were forgotten.
The laugh was on Delehanty. The big fel-
low failed to get hit on Saturday end on
the same pitcher yesterday also failed to
and a safe one.
Case Patten was on the rubber for the
Serators. and the clever left handler had
only two bad innings. He was particularly
effective in the face of discouraglnS sup
mort. and worked the best with runners on
The bases Young Mccarthy. who did the
twirling against Patten on Saturday, was
again on the rubber for Detroits and this
time he failed to do good work. Saturday
his slow ball seemed to worry a majority
of the batters, but yesterday Del" Ely
and Patten were the only Senator's who
failed to get the sphere in safe territory.
Bill Clarke was not in Saturdays game,
and his double and homer yesterday was
very dscouraging TO the young twirler.
The Detroits started off If they in
ended to make a runaway victory of the
.;ame. Harley tripled and scored on Elber-
feds out 10 Lee. Casey got base on
balls and went to second Mulin was
pat out at first. Holmes followed with a
HIT to Carey, and as George threw wild to
Patten, who covered the bag, the ball rolled
to the grand stand and Casey raced home,
the batter to second. Beck then singled into
center and Holmes scored.
Washington failed to break into the run
column until the third inning, when one
run was scored. Carey led off with a double
and Clarke's double sent him over the plate.
In the fourth another run was hung up by
the Senators. Kester singing stealing sec
Ond, going to, third on Orth's single and
then home on Ely's long fly to Mullin In
center.
The Senators got very busy in the fifth,
making three runs and taking the lead with
a good margin. Clarke got a base on balls,
but Patten struck out. Doyle singled into
left. Lee followed with double into center
and Clarke scored. Delehanty hit a long
fly to Mullin and Doyle scored. Keisters
single into left sent Lee over the plate
This fast work was continued In the sixth
and the game put away In camphor. After
Ely had been retired, Carey sent a nice
single into right and Clarke chased him
home with his line hit over the left field
fence. Patten then went out at first but
Doyle doubled into left center. Lee hit
grounder to Gleason, and on the latters
tumble Doyle raced over the plate
In the seventh the Tigers thought it was
tiIne 10 be doing something and managed to
make one run McCarthy singled into right
and Harley was safe on Doyle's error El-
berfeld followed with hit to Keister at
third and the latter being IN hurry to
make double play made an error Keister
stepped on third, putting out Mccarthy, and
then threw short to Carey. Harley raced
home from third while Casey was being put
out a first
In the eighth the Detroits got very busy
IN the run scoring line, and for a few min
utes 1t looked though the Senators were
due for a throw down. Holmes got q hasa
on balls and Beck singled. Gieason's single
scored Holmes McAllister followed with a
force out of Gleason at second. Mccarthy
MT roller toward Patten, and on the lat
ters poor handling of the ball Beck raced
home Harley filed up the bases with q
single and on Doyle's error of Elberfeld's =
grounder McAllister scored Casey forced
out Mccarthy and MulIin struck out ending
the agony of the spectators. This was the
Detroits' dying effort. as Patten put on
in quick order
