While Buffalo was trimming Jersey city
In one OF the games Of the double header
at Jersey City both the Grays and Bati-
more were administering defeats TO their
opponents with the result that the Skeet
ers are now out OF the running and lne
final round OF the fight is between the
Grays and the orioles.
AS that contest now stands there is a
very bright prospect for the pennant to
come this way owing To- the fact that the
Grays have three games 10 be played
with the possibility OF another while the
other teams finish up their season today.
As TO the game Yesterday. IL was by far
better contest than was any one OF
those seen during the series with the
Buffalo combination and the fans were
more than enthusiastic all during the
contest From the spirit shown yester-
day n Is very evident that the locals will
have all they can take care OF TO secure
the two games today with a possibility
that one OF them may go TO the oppo-
nents
This would mean dire disaster and the
majority OF the fans are hoping that the
tide OF affairs basebalic Will drift the
other way
