ROCHESTER,, n. Y, July 26.-Drop-
ping three games in a row to Rochester
after making such a good showing at
Montreal was not very pleasing to the
Bengals. who wind up their present
stay with todsy's game.
Everybody was feeling glum this
morning, and THO corridor of the os,
borne House was pretty much like a
morgue after the double defeat yester.
day.
Wyatt Lee should have won his
game-the 1rst-but was partly~re-
sponsible for the defeat by his own err
ror. Fisher started the trouble with
an error that cost two bases in the
ninth inning, and Wyatt promptly fol-
lowed with a wild throw of Batch's
bunt, which cost the game.
The boys say that Wyatt's "hat" is
the jinx, but Lee believes hat Holmes
spoiled his luck when he wore Wyatt's
shirt in Montreal.
Benny Meyer tripled in the second
inning of the curtain raiser, and raised
the dust at the plate when Smith

got to Manser. Babe Reams led the
and Bailey bingled. That ended the
run-getting.
The Hustlers picked the sixth inning
to square accounts. Simmons and
Spencer met balls to their liking. and
base hits resulted. Jacklitsch was
there in a pinch, and biffed one to the
outfield, which sent the two SIS over.
Won in the NINTH" appealed to
Manager CAMEL, and this looked good
to his men. Joe Ward led off in the
final when he drove one at Fisher. The
newcomer blocked it, but made a bad
heave to Agler, and Ward reached sec
ond. Mcmillan was sent in to run for
the former Phillie. Heine Batch was
sent in to bat for Ossie Osborne, and
he hunted to Lee. Wyatt had to turn,
and he made a poor throw TO first,
which Smith, who covered, could not
get, and Mcmillan crossed. and the
game was over.
Moran's single on McGinnity, his
steal and McCarty's error put the little
Rochester outfieider on third for a
starter In the second game. Moeller
whitfield and Foster walked. Ward fol-
lowed with Q two-sacker and Moran
and Foster tailed. Osborne got in a
hit and on Simmons's sacrifice fly Ward
counted.
Dan Moeller tripled in the third and
got In the run column when Foster flied
to Meyer. In the following inning the
Champs added just another. Spencer's
fife on Cady's error and Wilhelm's sin
gle caused the score.
George Boice was sent in when not
warmed up in the eighth and the Hus-
tiers got four across.
o
The Tigers lone tally was made in
the first, Kelly's double, Meyers out
and an error by Wilhelm following q
short passed ball. Kel, as usual, dashed
for the plate, although the chances
were against him, in the excite
ment Wilhelm dropped Mitchell's throw.
Fisher had e hit in each am but
his fielding is still far from being inn
pressive. 1t is a question if he a
hold his own with Reams in this re
spect, but he is a better hitter than

Louden lost a finger nail on Monday
and will be able to play third in to-
game at Buffalo.

Double plays were a feature of the
first game yesterday. the Tigers maxi
ing four behind Lee, three of which
Lee started himself.
