twirler this season. was decidedly the hero
of the afternoon He was on the rubber
for the locals and In addition to holding the
White Sox down to six scattered singles. he
hammered out home run in the sixth
irnlng with three men on the bases and
gave a practical demonstration OF a pitcher
winning his own game The score was
tie at that point. both sides having scored
two runs Cross and Anderson had led on
with singles and S'chlafy moved them up
with a neat sacrifice. Stahl hit to Tame
hiIi and the third baseman made nice
throw to the plate and headed off Cross.
Mac" Heydon then came TO the bat and
Manager Jones figured II out that he was
dangerous man as he had already swatted
Pitcher owen for TWO doubles. After a
consultation with Davis Owen was ordered
10 pass Heydon. which filled the bases and
Falkenberg walked TO the bat. The tall
boy isn't much OF n hitter and Il looked
like a wise move but Falkenberg stepped
in on the first ball pitched and away 1t
sailed into right field close TO the foul line.
When IL struck the ground II had twist
enough to carry Il under the right-held
bleacher seats and was lost to view, Faiken-
berg trotting around the bases to the
mighty shouts of the hak-crazed specta-
tors.
Owen Also Did Well.
With the exception OF the second and
sixth innings owen also pitched good ball.
Anderson and Heydon being the only ones
10 get more than one hit.
Back OF the pitchers. both teams fleided
spiendidly. many sensational plays being
made on both sides, and although the con-
test dragged out two hours the interest
was Intense from start to finish. Davis and
TaEnehin. for Chicago. pulled down several

the seventh inning with his left hand as IL
was sailing over his hAd into left center.
For the locals Cross made several pretty
stops at third and Manager Stahl went
through his daily stunt OF digging them
out OF the ground on short throws, but the
work OF Falkenberg both In batting and
fielding dwarfed everything else In the con-
test
The tall twirler got away bad In the first
inning. sending the first two batsmen. Hahn
and Jones. to first on balls. Isbell then sac
Davis timely single into right scored both
Hahn and Jones. Donohus then went out
on a roller to Stahl. and Schlahy and Stahl
turned back Pat Dougherty.
Altizer started of nicely for the Nationals
with a clean single into left and was sac
rtficed to second by Stanley, but Mi flied
out 20 Dougherty and Cross died on his
roller TO Tannehil.
Again In the second Falkenberg got HIM
self in a hole with a bad start but luck
was with him and no runs were scored.
Sullivan walked and Tannetfii singled 10
left. owen then sacrificed them along, but
Hahn hit a sharp roller TO Stahi that tore
Ills hands apart with its speed, but he re-
covered II In time to nail Sullivan at the
plate OF fine throw to Heydon. Manager
Jones then relieved the anxiety by striking
cut.
The Nationals then got busy IN the same
inning and quickly tied up the score. while
the spectators yelled themselves hoarse
Tied the Score.
Anderson started the trouble with a single
10 left ana Schlaay worked a base on balls.
Manager Stahi laid down neat sacrifice
and the wise ones were complaining because
lie did not try to bit the bal; out. bat Hey
don was the man OF the minute. as he tore
of a timely double to right. and Anderson
and Schiahy lost little time getting over the
plate. Heydon was probably dreaming over
his fine ht when Sullivan caught him nap
ping with a pretty throw to George Davis
But the crowd applauded him nevertheless
when he walked into the bench with his
( head cast down.
