The Tigers went after both games from the start.
McIntyre sent the first ball Newton pitched in the
first game past Keeer for three-bagger and
scored, with Crawford, who had walked. when Cobb
drove out another three -bagger. Ball let Ross

scored him with three-bagger, scoring himself a

though the Tigers scored three runs more after
Manning went in, and the Yankees gathered three
as they went sadly along.
The second game even worse. Six IlgerS

more made the trip around the bases later. In the
second inning there much dumb play by the
Yankees combined with Detroit hitting. First
O'Leary singled, then Donovan famed, and then
