Concerning the pitching, there was
not so much to choose, but that little
was in favor OF Adams. Mullin started
well. but lost his cunning as the game
progressed. only TO recover 1t when the
Pirates had an insurmountable lead.
Adams got away badly, seeming to lack
the confidence TO let himself cut But,
IN the fifth round, which Davy Jones
opened with a single, ne found himself
and from that time the Tigers never
had a chance Mullin had a world Of
speed. good breaks, and pretty good
control. Adams developed a fade-away
