TIGERS AIMING
To WIN FIRST
SERIES Of YEAR
Now That Grays' Two Best
Pitchers Are Out Chances Are
That TOday's and Tomor-
rows Games May Be Won by
the BengaIs, Who Have Yet
to Win a Series.

A FTER the improved showing the
Tigers made in yesterdays game
the fans are hoping that the
Tigers will now take a brace, trike
their stride and win their first series
of the season at Providence's expense
by taking the two remaining games
with the Grays, to be played today and
tomorrow. The Tigers have not won a
single series this year rom any team.
Twice the Bengals broke even with
Montreal and once they got an even
break with Toronto. The worst that
should be the result of the present
series Is an even break. and with two
of Jimmy Collins's best pitchers out OF
the way the chances r hat the Tigers
will be successful, though baseball dope
Is very unreliable.
The catching of Lew McCarty was
again a pleasing feature Of yesterdays
game. Joe McGinnity. who Is in a po-
sition, through his long service In the
big leagues. to know the value OF q
good catcher, believes he has a sure
enough find In the youngster. The
Iron Man" is keeping McCarty on the
bench to give the youngster an oppor-
tunity to learn as much as possible,
and Scout Parkin's find is taking ad-
vantage of the opportunity and improv-
ing daily. At first he was arratic, and
still has a tendency to overthrow the
bases. but yesterday he got Anderson
and McDermitt. two of the fastest men
on the visiting teams. easily when they
tried to steal. MeCarty will handle
the Iron Mans delivery.
One of these days Lew will be TAX
ing his turn regularly behind the bat.
Newark certainly was lucky to pick
up such a talented pair Of receivers
as Cady and McCarty.
Joe McGinnity's good all-around
work put the team on edge yesterday
and Newark pulled through in front
by a score of Al. McGinnity allowed
but four hits and let the Grays down
without a single safety until the sixth.
His support was wobbly and erratic.
but he was there strong in all but a
fraction of the seventh. when a mo-
mentary lapse Of control. an error and
a single cost a run. Then with the
bases filled and one out he made Peter
son and Doyle pop up flies for Louden.
McCarty and Agler m~anufactt ed
the first run in the third. Mac Shot
a single past third. was sacrificed to
second by McGlnnity and crossed the
plate on Agler's single to left. Provi-
dence tied it up in the seventh. Perry.
reached first on Meyers error, Pond
sacrificed and Collins drew the, only
pass of the game. Tarleton's single to
centre scored Perry. Then McGinnity
made a wild throw of Rocks bunt and
the bases were Weighted down. Peter
son and Doyle. both good hitters, put
up flies for Louden.
Newark rallied and concentrated the
attack on Slow Joe Doyle in the eighth
for three runs. Louden sent a two
story Texas leaguer 10 left centre, only
to be caught between h bases on Nc
Carty's hit to Doyle. Tho Tiger
catcher made second on the play. Nc
Ginnity smote q clean single to left
and McCarty tailed the run that put
Newark in front. Bailey also singled
to left and moved along with the
Iron Man on a wild pitch. Kelly
then doubled to deep left and both run
ners scored. Tarleton doubled in the
ninth, but got no further than second
