BY a batting rally in the eighth SEES
sion the Navy Yard tied the Kenilworth
club in an exciting game yesterday aft
ernoon in the Capital City League by
the score Z to Z.
Giovannetti, who did the twirling for
the Machinists. had difficulty in getting
a start and 1t was not until after the
fourth inning before he had things his
own way. During the last five rounds
he held them down to one stratch hit,
and this came in the ninth
J. Noone and limbaugh were the box
artists for the suburbanites, and both
were touched up pretty lively. j. Noone
started the ball rolling first and lasted
seven and tWo-thirds innings, when he
was relieved by limbaugh. who allowed
three bingles during his short stay upon
the mound.
In all probability the game would
have gone to the kenilworth team had
it not been for an accident to Norman
Kraft In the eighth round the South
east boys had two out and bases full,
when Harley hit a hot liner to Orri-
son. who threw home to catch Litz. I'm

chinist out when LitZ spiked Kraft, and
the plucky backstOp dropped the pail,
allowing the tying run to score

Todsy's game-Nasssu VS.. Manhattan.

Todsy's game-Nassau Manhattan.
With Jack Leonard going at his best
and holding his opponents to two hits
ST Martin easily defeated National Union
& to 0. For three innings both pitchers
worked on a par but in the fourth Coo
lev weakened and the St. Martins sent
four runs across the plate on FIVE hits.
Both teams played good games, and the
contest was one of the most interesting
seen on the field this year.
Leonard was in rare form, tanning
eight and allowing but two hits. He had
little trouble pitching to Price, whom
he hit twice and passed once. Jack has
a reputation for winning games when
he is slugged hard. Yesterday he showed
that he could hold his opponents to few
hits and shut them out.
Up until the fourth Cooley allowed but
one hit famed one. passed one and was
the ST. Martins got to him and sent out
FIVE hits for four runs. From the fourth
to the ninth inning Cooley was hit for
thirteen bingles.
In the slug-fest that the st. Martins
engaged in after the fourth Carr and
Tansil carried off the honors. Out of
four times up Jack Carr got four hits.
one a triple and another double. Tan
sill got two clean drives out of two trips.
Morgan. after a long absence from the
game. put in his appearance yesterday
and did himself credit at short for the
losers. He f1elded his position well and
got one of his teams hits. He also had
the honor of being the only man to steal
on Brewer
Big Six Brewer caught the game of
his career for the st. Martins. The way
he held Leonard up was a feature in
itself, and he allowed but one man to
steal on him. His batting too, was
good he getting triple and two singles.
Herman made a clever catch of Heinc-
kle's foul fly in the first that was the
| most spectacular seen on the field this
season. Heinckle drove the ball in. the
air in back of the third base benches,
and by running around behind them Her.
riman got to it just in time to squeeze
the ball
Price pulled Cooley out of a hole in the
second inning, when with one on base
and one down he retired the side by
his speedy work and accurate throws to
second He was the only man on his
team to get on base more than once,
and the three times that he got on he was
hit twice and drew four balls the other
time.
Manager Wilkinson deemed it neees-
sary to take no more chances with the
National Unions. for it was they who
gave st. Martin its first defeat. and
had his best lineup on hand. Wilkinson
thinks that if they beat Twining Friday
the pennant is theirs. Collingsworth
was on hand in uniform Yesterday, but
as he is just recovering from a badly
spiked foot Wilkinson thought it best
for him to warm the bench and be in
more perfect trim Friday.
