It was the eighth victory of the
Pole He has lost three games, each
of which went into the wrong column
by the narrow margin of one run.
For assists 1t is probable that the
Mobile club yesterday afternoon set .
season record. The Gulls made "a,
as many assists in fact putouts. But
two balls were caught in the outfleld,
Chappelle, in right. getting both of
these.
In the two games played of the
present series Mobile has appeared
outclassed and the wonder is how the
Gulls could have won three straights
from the Barons just a few days ago.
But Fleharty Thursday was very
strong and yesterday Covaieski mad
the visitors completely at his mercy.
With equal pitching Mobile will prob
ably make a better showing.
To take two games this afternoon
the Barons will have to go some. Mo
bile's twirlers will be Chappeile and
Bittrolff. both of whom when right
are very good. Wagner and Stockdaie
will enter for Birmin CHAM. while Bauer
will be held in reserve The first game
of the douhleheader will begin at 2.3o
o'clock.
The Barons have made an excellent
record to date winning six of seven
games played this week.
Montgomery lost again yesterday and
seems to be up against the soapy
chutes. Greminger is in the mark ct
for another pitcher, following the
twisted ankle of Duggleby Thursday,
and two outhelders.
Atlanta has obtained the permission
of every club In the league to re-
instate Rogers for a game today. At
ter the game today he will be sent
to San Antonio. Griffin has been re-
ed from San Antonio and will be
reta ined for the remainder of the sea-
son. Atlanta will carry five twfrlers.
