But into the second game Manager Stahl
tossed a Milwaukee recxuit named Good
win, who realizes the necessity of showing
something now If ever. Detroit could not
hit him much. In fact but for the fact that
at times he had trouble in getting them
over, and that Wakefield was absolutely
unable to locate second sack when De-
troiter started to steal it. he would have
held the Tigers to couple of tallies. They
forced Mullin to his best clip in this con-
test. and he has seldom looked better.
Taken all the way through, Lave Cross
and Wakefield were the only men who could
do anything with the fat boy. Cross hit
