critics. showed superiority in ever!
department of the game in the
in the series as a whole, although
this superiority was not so apparent
on the day that Detroit batted vic
tory eff OF Pfeister's curves.
Schmidt's inability to cut down run
ners at second and by the failure of
her heavy hitting outfield to bat at
critical moments when hits meant
runs.
None of the Detroit pitchers
seemed able to constantly puzzle the
Chicago batsmen, for even Mullin,
who pitched Detroits only victory,
was found for seven hits.
Throughout the series Chicago's
hitting was opportune. Occasions
We're rare when with men on bases
and runs needed. a Chicago bats
man was not there with the needed
hit
The games We're singularly free
sqrabbling and on only two or three
occasions were decisions of the um-
pires questioned.
