The advent of Patsy Donovan as manager
of the Washington club seemed to act as
inspiration on the local players yester-
day, they fielded like champions and
batted hard enough to win several games
AS result the st. Louis team was defeated
by the score of to 3. Every one of the
Senators in the game appeared to be show
ing off to the new manager as If to impress
him with the fact that he was entitled to
the most distinguished consideration. Case
Patten got good start, and, usual the
case with him. continued at winning gait
until the end. The best the Browns could
do in the way of punching hits was single
and a triple In the third inning. He gave
but two bases on balls and struck out five
brown legs.
Back of Patten the Senators went through
the nine innings without semblance of an
error and in addition killed many base hits
in the most discouraging fashion to the
opposing batters. Cassidy came in on line
hit from Burkett's bat in the second inning
and while at full speed caught the ball at
his shoe tops. turning a complete somer-
sault in the transaction. 1t took several
minutes for the spectators to quiet down
after the feat. In the fourth inning Sugden
drove line fly toward left that had all
up his left hand in the easiest manner
possible and when 1t came down the ball
was in it, Once more the spectators went
wild. Mccormick and Coughlin also knock
ed down several sharp liners that looked
very good for the hitters when the ball left
the bat.
Harry Howell was on the rubber for the
Browns at the start, hut he lasted only
four innings owing to the fusillade of hits
that went from the Senator's bats, every
man on the local team taking a turn in the
fourth inning. Morgan replaced Howell in
the fifth inning and did splendidly, holding
the Senators down to three hits and one
tally. The black mark against ST. Louis
was Hills work at third Four times he
went awry in throwing either to first or
second and runs resulted in each instance.
The Senators got away well by scoring a
run in their first turn at the bat. Moran

suit. A quick throw by Sugden to Wallace
caught Moran off second and he went to

Young and Killian. in which the veteran
had slightly the better of it. He allowed
but five hits, while the locals hit his rival
for ten safe ones. of which Young alone
contributed three There was nothing

when Young gave two bases on balls and
hit one man, but Mcintyre retired his side
