Don't Blame That Lone Run
Of YESTERDAY 10 fdniyTs

Detroit fans are a set OF hard
losers and lief: the field yesterday,
Vowine that Mstty Mcintyre
should have come tearing in and
-ade a startling catch of the
Crive which Dode Birmingham
peeled of, bringing IN lajoie with
the only run of the game.
Az a matter OF fact. Mcintyre

get 10 the bali before il touched
the ground. AS nothing could
possibly be gained by trapping 1t
or taking a chance OF losing II on
a short bound. Matty stood in
his tracks and fielded IL easily.
II is one Of the maxims Of the
Tiger left-fielder never TO attempt
the obviously Impossible and this
is not the first time he has drawn
the eensure Of the fans for his
failure to try to pull off a play
that is not in the cards.
A less experienced man might
have tried the catch yesterday
with results which would have
put the game much farther cut OF
reach.
