yesterday - Montreal won, by the score of 8 to l.
There is only one way to explain this defeat and that IS
by saying that the Tiger batsnen were powerless when
nlen we're on base. This truth IS borne home to mind
strongly by the fact that there were ten juneleites left
stranded on the paths. whereas only half that number of
Royals died the same way. Newark both outhit and out
fe1ded their rivals. getting seven safeties to six for the
Canadians and playing an errorless game in contrast to
the three misplays made by Caseys men. Friil and
Wicker were the twirlers and Jack was good enough TO
win more than a majority of games, but the goddess of
baseball luck was busy at some other place and desert
