The Bostons scored another shut-out
against the Nationals yesterday afternoon,
while they hammered six runs over the
plate with their trusty bats. A big crowd
turned out to witness the game, expecting
the Nationals to come back strong with
their "hoodoo," Cy Young, out of the way,
but the young collegian, Ralph Glaze, had
speed and curves that completely dazzled
all the local players but Ganley, only six
scattered singles being made off his de-
livery. OF these six bingles, Bob Ganley
obtained three, which is a strong object
lesson in demonstrating how cleverly Glaze
pitched against the other local batsmen.
Last season Glaze had no terrors for the
Nationals, or in fact any other American
League club, but he has been going finely
this spring and continued on his success
full course yesterday.
Manager Cantillon was very anxious to
secure a victory yesterday and decided to
take chance on Case Patterns sore arm,
as the clever southpaw has always been a
terror to the Bostonese. But 1t could be
seen from the start that Patten had none
of his dazzling speed, as the visitors began
to rap his slow curves hard in the first
inning. In the next two innings good field
ing cut off several budding hits, and 1t look
ed as though Patten might pull through
with a good record but the visitors got to
him in the fourth and fifth in slap-bang
- order and Kitson went to his relief In the
sixth. With the score standing 4 to y, KIT
son was confronted with gigantic task, as
the Bostons had on their batting clothes,
and they hammered his speedy drops to
the same merry pitter patter that had
greeted Patten.
Back of the twirlers. the Bostons put up
a fine fielding game, while that OF the locals
was ragged to say the least, although no
errors were made. The loss OF their bat
ting eyes has evidently taken the life OUT
of the Nationals. as they worked witnout
confidence, and several balls dropped safe
which would have been gobbled up had the
men been going right. Perrne. Scniany
and Altizer pulled of several ,ieat pays
but the last named trespassed on Can
ley's territory after Unglaub's long ny IN
the fifth inning. with the result that neither
got it, and II had to go as double, Where-
as Bobby could have eaten II up Wl.nou. M,
f1y back of first in the sixth inning, the
ball entirely escaping Andys hands, a
catch the big fellow will make nine times
out of ten. =,
The featurss of the game were the batting

How the Damage Was Done.
The Bostons began to score in their
initial turn at the bat, getting one run
over the plate Sullivan went out, Per
rine to Anderson, but Parent soaked
fine double along the left field foul line
He went to third while Unglaub was being
thrown out by Perrine at first, and then
home when Collins whipped timely single
into left. ,,
In the fourth they got going again with
their bats After Collins had nied out
to Perrine Grimshaw hit the ball up
against the right field seats for double,
and he raced home on Ferris single to
left.
The fifth inning brought about Patterns
recall to the bench Sullivan opened with
a single to center and went to second
while Patten was throwing Parent OUT at
FIRST. Unglaub followed with his double
10 center, which AltiZer- failed to get
under and Sullivan reached third COL
Inns singled to left, and Sullivan galloped
home while Grimshaw took third Grim
shaw drove out a long fly to AltlZer, ana
Cnglaub scored on the out.
Kitson confronted the Bostonese In the
sixth but their batting eyes were bright
and they couldn't be stopped. AFTER Wag-
ner had been thrown out at first by Per-
left that Jones missed gathering in by
only hairs breadth. Glaze followed with
his Texas Lacquer back of first, and Arm
bruster got home before the ball was re-
covered. 49,
In the seventh Collins led of with his
third hit but Grimshaw forced him out at
second. Cross to Schlafy, and Ferris did
the same with Grimshaw on his roller 10
the second baseman. Wagner singled 10
right and Ferris pulled up at tnlrd. Wag-
ner then started the bluff steal of second,
drawing a throw from Heydon to Perrine.
and while he was being run down Ferris
dashed home with Boston's last run:
The only times Washington had chances
to score were in the first and sixth IN
nings when Ganley led off with clean
singles but the following batsmen were
as putty In Glaze's hands, and there was
nothing doing.
