then Davy Jones tripled and scored
on Cobb's fourth safe drive OF the
day. The score was 5 10 4. and the
Tigers had beaten one OF their old
time foes and one of th<1wo pitchers
who had formerly dented their record
by defeat Lively pitched like a
veteran and baffled the Sox In fine
style, errors affording an opening for
two OF the four runs scored by Duff
fys men.
The Tigers have now won seven
straight They had won six straight
before that, the defeat by West In
tervening. They had won six straight
to start the year before Doc White
unloaded that ten-inning win on them
which broke their undefeated record.
On the principle that Our Boys"
are to average defeat week all
season against the western clubs, the
Athletics will be long time catching
up, even by simply extraordinary
baseball. II the Tiges can do that
oil season, they will find IL necessary
only to break even against the east
ern clubs. The rest will be moral
cinch.
The pitching stan OF the Tigers
will be strengthened through the east
ern series. 1t is formally announced.
by Wild Bill Donovan who says he Is
now ready.
This Is nearly two weeks ahead OF
schedule but Donovan's shoulder has
been giving much less trouble this
spring than for several years before.

ders have been performing on the To-
cal ball yard. But he dug up his lit

showing that he pitched 25 games

Evidences of past activity have
palled on Bill, however, and he swears
he will pitch one of the games against
New York. Should Jennings see At
to take Bill at his word, the mere
announcement would be sure TO
bring many additional thousands to
the ball yard, for their is no more
popular player on the club than Wild
Bill.
Tuesday is destined to be an occa-
sion of double significance. II will
mark the opening OF the long home
series against the eastern clubs, OF
course. II will also, however. be the
date selected for a grand comeback
