winning yesterday. That fifth inning
looked bad for the veteran, when he
allowed five runs to be tailed against
him. one being a homer by Tannehill.

Buffalo. A win today and another to-
morrow will do the trick.
Well, it's some consolation the way
the Tigers are singing the ball these
days.
More proof that the president of the
league ought to take the trip around
the circuit. A pair of fights between
umpires and players in a week will not
add to the credit Of P. T.
It's too bad the Skeeters cant put up
the same fight against the Hustlers
that they usually do against the
Tigers.
