cive the Maps credit for seven hits on

snrer that the youngster that he VIII

man who made 1t yawn. At any event,
he didn't replace Summers Wednes-

Works passed out four safe ones dur
ing the next four sessions, presenting
one In each inning.
Kaler let rs have six hits. Wow! /
And none OF them came at time
when II counted anything at the ON

on Sara's single. And while the Tiges
were working for these six hits. they

A strange thing about the two pitch
era that started was that they finished
with 1000 per cent averages In the
days batting column. Summers n
one Tt In once up and Kaler two In
twice.
