The Newark star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1909, 1909-08-07

Jersey City took a fall out of the fast
going Maple Leafs yesterday by giving
them a whitewash bat, 2 to 0.
Tige will have another chance to give
the Hustlers a clawing this afternoon.
Batch made a fine catch of Louden's
drive to the left field fence in the
Tigers turn with the willow in the
final innings of yesterdays long battle.
After winning two games from
Rochester by big scores on Thursday,
Baltimore lost to Buffalo yesterday by
a tally of II to 2.
The Buffalo scribes still believe that
there is no dissension in the ranks OF
the Herd. Maybe if they got wise tc
themselves and did a little more scout
ing on their own hook. instead of
rushing to the manager of the team to
ask if such a thing was true they
might set a little news and let the Buff
falo fans know what is going on. The
Buffalo Times before printing anything
about the matter should have investi-
gated the facts and hen printed the
truth. \ instead of clipping an article
from a Rochester paper that had got
scooped on the story. Funny, when
a person has the facts and knows them
to be absolutely the truth the Buffalo
papers try to brand the story as a
fake. Come on, Mr.. Mills, wake up and
see what is going on in your fair city.
Maybe when you get to Rochester you
will find out a little more about the
story Come to Newark and you. will
get all the facts o want.
Ernest Courtney, who was released
by Jersey City not very long ago, is
playing great ball for Providence. He
is hitting in timely fashion and playing
a nice fielding game.
'Cy' Barger was at his best and pitched
a heady game throughout.
Rather tough on the Iron Man to lose
after going the route and being given such
great support, by Meyers especially.
Erwin had a finger broken on his throw
ing hand in the ninth inning by a foul
tip from Gettman's bat. Johnny Butler then
took Erwin's place behind the bat and
played a nice game.
Bud Sharpe was the only Tiger to get
more than one hit off Barger. And up
until the seventh he was the only man who
had connected.
Walter Blair, the Tigers new backstop,
played a nice game and. although he did
not do anything with the willow, he stands
up to the plate like a real hitter.
Another chance lost to gain in the race,
for Jersey City defeated Toronto.

had no sooner spoken than George poled
out the single that won the game.
