A victory which cost the Tigers
dearly--which may, indeed, lose them
the American league pennant--was
won at st. Louis, yesterday.
At the expense of putting one
more game on the winning side OF
the standings, the club has deprived
itself OF Edgar willett. it's most bril-
liant pitcher. For just how long a
period willett is destined for the
shelf, only experiment will tell. The
period varies in possibilities from
two weeks TO all time.
II is just possible that Edgar may
never again pitch ball for the Detroit
club. Should this turn out TO be the
case, yesterdays victory-nay the
teams entire sensational opening of
the season-will have proven a most
expensive feat.
