The pitchers duel or the oat'ers
battle?
which is 1t that the crowd likes
best?
IA Il true that the average bug
likes the combat in which the star
wart beavers make the batsmen eat
out of their hands, with most innings
oue. two. three and out and one run
almost bic enough to spell victory al
any stage? Or does the bunch that
sunuorts baseball and makes II the
game II Is. get more enjoyment out
of an old-style Suggest?
rs an old baseball argument that
never seems to lose In interest win
the years.
Yet il is hard TO see how there can
ne much ground for dispute, when the
Detroit crowd is concerned. Certain

favor of the pitchers battle aiter
The way the Detroit mob raVed over
the game of yesterday.
A better example OF Vie yarigateu
style OF play could hardly be mag
med. Pitchers succeeded one an
other on the slab for both Tigera
and Browns. There were frequent
bases on balls and more than an oc-
casional fielding slip. Ever and anon
resounded through the yard the STIR
ring kersmack of the basehit. Run
ners tore about the sacks and held
era caught them and missed them.
The Browns had US at one time 10
2. The Tigers scored eight runs In
the sixth inning and worked up to
lead of four. The Brown got two OF
these runs back and, In the ninth,
were within one good single of tie
ing things up.
Through 1t all the bugs raved, laud-
ing their favorites. condemnlng the
foe and arguing with the naughty
jumps. At the finish they left the
field hoarse but triumphant and fair
" fatigued with the delight OF the
many emotions which had followed
each other in such rapid succession.
Give Detroit one of the big scoring
games and let the Tigers be one or
two ahead at the finish-as they al
most invariably are in such affairs
and local bugdom knows its climax
Of pure joy.
The one glorious inning In which the
Tigers came from the remote back
ground into the lead Is a league rec
ord for the season and deserves sep
arate embalming.
Lake was pitching. and the FIRST
man TO face him Was Bush, who
worked the unlettered splitter for q
pass. Cobb hit one at Laporte 30

Delahanty walked, Milling the sacks.
Moriarty then contributed the most
useful1 smash of the day-a corking
single TO left, on which two runs
scored. Gainor beat out a bunt, and
the bases were full again. Stanage
was the first out, on fly to short
center. Covington, at that moment

laid IL over the plate in an alluring
manner and the Browns hit II high
