DfJROIT LED THE LEAGUE
IN EXTRA INNING GAMES
e;obteen Inning Tie Game With WASH
inaton Stands Out Above All 9th
ers as the Best Game Of the
Season-The Records.

rhere is always one game that
..ards ont above all others as the
est Of the season" The contest
during 1909 that will be remembered
hv fans the country over was the
clash between the Tigers and Wash
,ryton American league teams at De-
troit July 16 last. 1t was without
question the very best ball game
nlaved not only in the major leagues
hut minor organizations as well
THE two teams battled for Is in
nings without a single runner maxi
inc the circuit of the bases. Eddie
summers. the "Kickapoo Kid" did
the twirling for Detroit and held the
Washingtons to seven safeties in that
double regulation" contest.
"Dolly" Gray, the Washington
southpaw, was the real hero OF the
occasion. He was injured early in the
contest. but stuck to his post until
nerve no longer could withstand the
pain. and he gave way to his Pacific
coast pal. Bobby Groom. Gray was
i'm rare form that day and the Tigers
had their troubles finding them.
Groom's work was about on par with
that of his predecessor and the De-
troit batters were held to six hits.
When the score of the Washington
Detroit game of July IS was chalked
mp on the bulletin boards in the
American league cities. scarcely one
of the many thousands who hung
around an hour or so later than was
their usual wont but what expressed
himself as follows Gee. that must
be a peach of a game. / wish that
could be in Detroit today"
During the season of 1909 American
league teams played so extra inning
games, six of which terminated i'm
ties. The staying qualities of the De-
troit pitchers helped the Tigers ma
terially in annexing their third con-
secutlve pennant Detroit played i'm
10 extra inning games during the
season, winning nine. losing one and
three ending i'm ties. Their only de-
feat was at the hands of Boston. They

ers been as successful in overtime
games as Hughie Jennings twrlers the
chances are they and not the Tigers
would have opposed the Pittsburg Pr
rates in the recent series for the worlds
baseball supremacy.
Boston, third at the finish. won
seven and lost five extra inning
games.
Chicago won four and lost seven.
New York won five and lost the

shortstop, had tied the great Honus
with an average of $40. The New
York Americans sporting man, in
commenting on the showing of the
two players, called especial attention
to the fact that Bridwell had parti-
cipated in nine more games than had
Wagner and that because the Giants
showing was as good as the Dutch-
mans the former must, of course, be
the greatest player of the two.
A Pittsburger called the attention
Of Secretary VIII Locke of the Pr
rates to this criticism, asking at the
same time: what about this?"
Locke very promptly pointed out the
difference between the two players
Bridwell's record is 755 chances in
145 games and Wagner's S23 chances
in 1876 games. Hence Bridwell accept
ed 80 chances per game. while Wag-
ner got away with 6.5 per game.
This showing, Secretary Locke point
ed out, should prove conclusively
that Wagner's showing was the better
of the two. If anything else was
needed the number of putouts would
go far to settle the point. Wagner
having 344, while Bridwell had only
269. These putouts show that the
Dutchman, in addition to guarding the
shortfield paid considerable attention
TO second base, covering that bag
whenever II was necessary to do so.
President Dreyfuss. in commenting
on the comparison drawn between
Bridwell and Wagner. said: Wagner
covers the ground; he is at hand
when wanted He tries for everything
possible to get and he gets most
everything he tries for Brldwell Is
a good man. but Wagner is Wagner"

President Barney Dreyfuss of the
