DRINKERS HIT
WON GAME

The Indians tied another knot In
the tail of the Tigers yesterday af-
fernoon. Jack Killilay. who did the
twirling for the tribe. was in fine
form and pitched shutout ball
throughout the whole performance,
winning for Spokane by the score
of 2 to 0.
The Indians were unable to
score until the fifth inning, when
Burnett made safe hit over sec
ond base Spencer sacrificed and
Killilay struck out. Then Brinker
came to the bat and knocked hot
one over first base, scoring Bur
nett. Altman came to the bat and
lambasted two base hit over Sec
ond base, bringing in Brinker, and
here the scoring ended
Drinkers hit, which won the
game for Spokane in the fifth in
ming, caused the sensation of the
game. The ball rolled right along
the first base line and some alleged
that it was a foul, but Umpire
brennan thought different.
The fact that the bleacherites
crowded into the diamond did not
excite brennan in the least, and al,
though he was handed few choice
lemons and followed to the box
office by the angry mob, who pelt,
ed him with cushions, he refused
10 change his decision.
Saturdays game was won by
Spokane. Sscore: Spokane 6, Ia
coma T. The batteries for Spokane
were Holm and Spencer; Tacoma,
Hall and Conrad.

ming. Why? Because he has been
getting back at Jennings and the
Tigers ever since.
Remember when Claude Ross.
man blew up against the Athletics
last spring? Well, the reason for
the explosion was Ira Thomas. Dur
ing his stay with the champions
Thomas learned all their strong
and weak points, and when he went
to the Athletics he naturally tipped
off the vulnerable spots to Mack.
And it was because Thomas
knew Rossman was a poor thrower
that the Athletics planned to keep
big Claude throwing the ball as
much as possible. AS result of
that series, ROssman did his first
base playing on the bench for a
long time
