yesterday and continued to pitch
underhand to zach Wheat in the eiev-
enth inning of yesterdays skirm.s
between the Brooklyn and Bengal
forces at Washington Park, the two
teams might still be batting for the
supremacy. AS 1t was Cy passed.
Wheat in the eleventh with q mai on
second and two down. He had two
strikes on the Indian" batsman when
he allowed him to walk. Wheat Is a
slugger, and a 300 hitter, but is q
noloriously poor pinch hitter.
Cy took the advice hurled at him
from every eide and walked Wheat

duced the wallop to score Rummei
from second, ending the game and CIV
Ing Brooklyn a 4 TO 3 decision after
+, eleven innings of clean-cut baseball.
= Clearly and Parkin displayed great
form tor the Tigers. The Brooklyn
team was able TO comb the cor oined
t.iverles ot the two hurlers for only
nine wallops, which we're three more
than the Tigers collected. Cy Parkin
twirled the last five innings, and wa
one Of the heroes of the day. GeorI
Brown, Lew McCarty and Johnny Ne
were the other stars.
The Tigers showed the most promis-
ing form they have displayed to GATE
Their helding did not suffer a bit COM

Eddie Zimmerman did not get much
chance to star. He had one assist and

two wild throws all eas last year.

great shape, as brown as a berry, ant
is hitting them hard. He did not get
q safe blow yesterday, but was robbed
of a hit by the matinee idol. Cy stuck
up his paw and knocked down as

any big Lacquer, but the ball boundei

Tooley and Ragon are showing good
form. He Is enthusiastic over Catcher
Fischer, the recruit from Binghamton.
Brooklyn has a speedy combination on
the paths and should finish at least
three legs higher than last year.

Nap Rucker met with an accident
during the second inning of the game

field and showed dazzling speed on the
paths, He was the only Newarker to
get two h $. George Browne hit the

drove In two runs, but the big surprise
of the day came when Cy Parkin
