DANVILLE'S DOUBLE-HEADER.
Batting the Feature of Two Games
with Portsmouth.

Special tn The Washington Herald
Danville Va, Aug. Z3.-Portsnouth was
an easy victim to Danville in the double
header played here to-day, and the visi-
tors did not have so much as a good
"look-in" In either contest
The first game was characterized by
heavy hitting on the part OF both teams.
Walker. FOR Danville, kept the hits well
scattered. with the exception Of two in
nings. The visitors had scored but one
run, when, in the ninth inning. Heavener
walked and J. Sullivan singled. Left
Fielder Cook connected for a home run.
After this no one got on bases. Walker.
for Danvine. parked the ball in the
eighth inning.
Leonard. for the Truckers, was hit hard
at critical stages. The fielding of both
teams was perfect.
The beginning of the second game was
signalled by the benching Of Manager
Clark for the visitors. who protested
against a decision Of Lavinder in calling a
Danville man safe at first base which DO
sltiOn Clark was playing. Lavinder be
longs to the pitching stan Of the DanviIle
team, and was umpiring in place of a
regular umpire, who did not arrive to
succeed Handlboe, who was released. In
this game Temple was pounded hard, and
Fischer. shortstop for Danville, secured
two singles and a triple out OF three times
at bat Tyderman, for the locals. also Sc
cured a home run. The fielding of the
Truckers was rather slow, and they
seemed down in spirits, resulting. no
doubt, from their recent series of losses

STANDING OF THE TEAMS.
special to The Washington Herald.

Detroit, Mich, Aug. 23.-Falkenberg's s
mesmeric pitching virtually shut out the
Tigers here to-day, and the home club
skillfully combined its errors with the
execution of the Washington batsmen, the
result being a 3-to-I victory for Joe
Cantlllon's merry men and a sad blow TO
the pennant aspirations OF the locals, who
have been looking forward to the series
with the tail-enders with the expectation
OF padding their percentages TO such an
extent as to again place them at the
top Of the procession.
Sieyer and the human clothespln started
out to make a pitching duel Of it. Wash
ington drew one safe hit in the first four
innings. while Detroit's record was one
better, and neither was able TO force
man around, though somebody made the
acquaintance Of the third baseman for
one side or the other in nearly every
round.
Alt!zer opened the real artillery firing
in the fifth with a hard drive to center,
on which he took second. Smith bunted.
and Siever threw to COughlin, who would
have retired AItizer. but fiagrantly drop
ped the ball. Block shot one through the
box. which Downs vainly tried 10 head
OF, the ell rolling into center field. al
lowing Altizer to score and Smith to
take third, FaIkenberg failed to help his
side. but Milan drove a ny 10 Crawford,
and Smith tore for the plate Wahoo

This pair alone would have been enough
10 defeat the Tigers, but the Nationals
were not through. scoring q third in the
