WITH DETROIT TIGERS.
VIII Line Up This Afternoon in
DoubIc-Hender With Glade and
sicvers as the Pitchers.

The Browns viii return to ST. Louis to-
day. and this afternoon will entertain the
Detroit Tigers in double bill at Sports
mans Park
Intense rivalry exists between the
Browns and Tigers. and two hot games
should result. They are fighting il out
nov for sixth place in the pennant race.
and who will wind up in this position will
depend largely ON this series.
The teams have Just closed j series ot
three doubie-headers in the City OF Straits.
and they broke even.
st. Louis made an excellent showing on
their last EIstern trip. When they left
here the fans did not think they would
make any kind of showing away from
home. but the Browns made good against
The Eastern teams and against Detroit.
Hedges has his heart set on both games
to-day, and ne Will urge the Browns to
their utmost limit in the contests.
Eddie Siever. who has had long rest,
Will pitch the first game Slever has a
grudge against Detroit, and. as he is now
IN excellent shape. he should bowl over his
former teammates. Mike Kshoe will re-
cciye Sieyer.
Opposed TO Sicver will be George Mullin,
the man with necromantic curves. Mullin
al present is Dctroits leading pitcher, and
has always been hard man for the
Browns TO beat
There should be much interest in the
opener. and IL should result in pitchers
duel Between Sieyer ana Muilin there
exists an undying feud on more than one
occasion the pair have mixed IT. but fei-
low-players usually interfered before they
had time 10 alter each others facial archi-
lecture.
In the second game wild Biz Dono-
van. the Virginia Cyclone. and Fred Glade.
the Nebraska Whirlwind, will meet Low
ers Of speedy pitchers will have a chance
TO see in action the two greatest speed
merchants in the American League. Until
Glade became a member Of the American
League, players throughout the country
considered Donovan the speediest pitcher
in the business. Glade. however, is said
to be even faster than wild William 50
when this pair face each other there
should be something doing with the
zephyrs.
Should the Browns win both games to-
day II will mean that they should finish
in sixth place. McAleer appreciates this
fact and the Browns Will go into the tussle
with instructions TO buck the Tiger of the
baseball map.
ST. LOUIS will present its strongest line
up all the regulars being in their Gus
tomary places. This should give to them
an advantage over Detroit. as locals al
ways did have slight edge on the Tigers.
Yesterday Robert Lee Hedges. president
OF ffe BrowDs. announced that the St
Louis American League team would work

Hynes. the Browns new right fielder.
has added much strength to the local
American League team. and is practically
assured OF berth. Under McAleer's
training Pat has developed into a first
class fielder anc makes catches out o. the
ordinary In nearly every game.
His batting has won more than one game
for the locals and although he Is not bat
ting In the 300 class he Is hitting the
sphere opportunely and smashing In runs
for McAleer's men,
Pat has been a hot favcrite with the
fans throughout the circuit. The critics
in Detroit predict n very brilliant future
for him and say he Is the most likely
looking voungster who has shown at De-
troit this season.
