The Cairo bulletin., 1909-10-13


preciable time longer, Detroit might
have had many more runs, as three
runs came after the double play.
Cobb Made One Hit.
Cobb made one hit--a two Dagger
and reached first once when he was
hit by Leifield. The other two times
the Georgia star tried to beat out
hunts in front of the plate, but Gibson
threw him out both times. In the
field he had only one chance and ac.
cepted that gracefully.
SO thoroughly did Mullen do his
work that only six balls were hit TO
the outfield. Thre of these were safe
hits, the other three divided, two flies
to Crawford and one to Cobb.
After Pittsburg was retired one
two, three in the first session, Wag-
ner drew a base on balls in the sec
|ond, Miller struck out, Delehanty
then made the only error for Detroit,
when he fumbled Abstein's grounder
and Wagner moved to second. VIII
son hit to Mullin, Wagner was forced
out at third, Mullin to Moriarity. Glib.
son was easy, Mullin to Tom Jones,
retiring the side.
Had An Opportunity.
Pttsburg's real opportunity to score
came in the third inning, but Mullen
stopped them Leifield started by
striking out, but Byrne hit a two bag
ger into the left field overflow and
Leach drew a base on balls. Clarke
struck out but double steal moved
Ithe runners to third and second. The
decision of Umpire Evans at third
base received much unfayorable com
ment. Then came the striking out o.
Wagner and the end of pittsburgy
chances.
The downfall of Wagner apparently
Idisheartened his team mates. They
were as clay in the hands of the grea
pitching of Mullen during the remain
der of the chilly battle In the fourtl
Wilson singled to left after two Weis'
out, but Gibson was easy Pittsburf
was retired in order in the fifth and
sixth. In the seventh, Gibson hit safe,
ly to right when two were out, but
Phillippi struck out. Pttsburg was
again retired in order in the eighth
but in the ninth Miller beat out a bunl
between Moriarity and Mullen. Alb
stein and Wilson, however, could not
advance him.
Broke LeifieIds Defense.
Detroit broke Leifield's defense IN
the first inning, when Cobb was hi
by pitched ball, after two out Cobb
moved to second when Abstein drop
ped Leifield's throw that caught the
Detroit star off first Crawford ended
the inning with fly to Leach.

ehanty being hit by a pitched ball
