past and hailing somewhere from the
Oranges, was given the task of deciding
home-plate plays, and he made a stab
at it, but, this being his first work of
the season, he must receive the indul-
gence of the fans who were SO sore on
him yesterday. "Kaiser Wilhelm" and
Beef Stanage were the battery for
the Tigers. while elongated "Rube"

scribed it, and had the wind been
right that kid would have made the

that the Tigers drew first blood, and
the fans threw up their hats in high
glee. In this inning Jimmie Mullen
was the first man up and he went back
to the bench without anything on him
except three strikes. Then Hack"
Engle walked to the plate, waited and
received a free ticket for first bag. Sit

chances, Hack" dashed for second and

Connie Mack's bunch of American
League pennant-chasers came here
yesterday and clashed with the Tiger
aggregation, and although the latter
didn't nave their fun team in working
order, they put up such a game
struggle that Connie Mack and his
henchmen were mighty glad at the end
of the tenth inning to see that the
score board registered a tie. 1t was a
pretty contest, with here and there the
expected flaw. To begin with. the day
was far from a baseball one. The
chill wind swooped down on Wieden-
mayors Park, and those who failed to
discard their winter o~vercoats were
in luck.
Fans Out Early.
Shortly after the noon hour every
car going TO the park was filed with
fans before they left the easterly side
of the -Four Corners" and as the
hour for the opening of the first ex-
hlbition game neared the crowds got
larger. Many a fan discarded the troll
ley and made the park on the walk,
and they enjoyed the sport, for the day
was none too genial for a show of
lethargy.
On the inside of the grounds bleach
ers and side stands were filled with
valiant r%ooters, and from the first APP
p~earance of the Tigers they were given
a ringing welcome of roars that GER
tainly must have been heard in the next

There is no doubt but that the pair

In this part of the country there was
no betting on the match. and This
shows how little ia yor the game has
