Iron Man has been working on his
weak points as hitter and expects him
to be there with the stick next season.

accident. 1t is five weeks now since

his men as yet to keep his head above
water and will hold on to the end.

Lefty Russell won another game for
the Orioles yesterday. Russell figured
much in the hitting, too, getting a
timely double in the tenth inning.
Though Ray Demmitt, the former
Bengal, made two timely hits in the
game against the Orioles yesterday,
he helped to lose the contest for the
Royals. making a costly error in the
Ntenth inning.
Well, the Tigers are only thirteen
points behind Rochester now. We can
easily make that up.

of leading the Tigers in batting. Jack
is now hitting .293.

"Wednesday night. after the third game
of the series here, Newark must take
two of the three games on the pro-
gram in Bisontown. Of the eleven
games played Newark has won five,
lost the same number and tied one.
In those games the Tigers have scored
fifty-nine runs to their opponents
thirty-five, and yet they have secured
but an even break. All of the games
which went to the enemy were lost by
close scores, three of the five being lost
by one-run margin to Toronto. The
Bisons have been going well, and it is
hoped that they will strike a snag, as
iNewark Is about due. and, with Wad-
dell, McGinnity and Lee to do the
pitching, there is no reason why the
Tigers should not come home at least
one game to the good on the road
series. Yesterday was a quiet day.
The boys passed the time in various
ways, but most of them took things
easy and rested up for the coming
series.
