TIGERS RECORD WITH THE
A NICE TO THINK OF

to win games, the lamentations of
the fans grow more and more sor-
rowful in a way. There is not a reg
ular patron at Wiedenmayer's Park
who does not believe that Newark
would have captured the flag if it
had no been for the fatal jump from
Buffalo in July to favor the Jersey
City Club. 1t was a dismal failure
all the way around 1t broke up the
Tigers winning streak, when they
had captured eight out of thirteen
games on the road, and caused a
setback from which the Tigers suf-
fered an aftermath at Montreal when
the Royals captured four out of five
contests from Newark. Had George
Bell been in fettle at the time the
tale might have been a different n
However, the milk is spilled, and
the Tigers are playing the best base
ball in the league, which might give
| some consolation. The fight for third
| place will be on in earnest tomorrow,
when the Tigers go to Buffalo and
tackle the Brides in the beginning
of an e~ight-game ~string-four at the
Monumental City and four contests
to be staged here. A double-header
will probably be played here next
Sunday with the Birds, the Tigers
having a postponement with Dunn's
flock.
Easy for Enzmann.
Young Johnny Enzmann got credit
for an easy victory yesterday. Johnny
did not appear to be in the very hest
shape, but it may have been because
he was never hard pressed after the
first three rounds. He did have n
inning when q few scratch hits and
some bungling put him deep in the
hole, but he emerged with only n
run checked against him in that
round. though the visitors twice filled
the pouches with human freight.
"Wild Bill" Donovan trotted out a
new phenom yesterday in P. J. Dug
gan, from Fredericktown, N. B., Can
ada. Duggan is a protege of Bob
Ganley. who performed sentinel duty
for the Tigers two seasons ago. Dug
gan debutted with two hits and a
pass, and met the ball rather vicious
ly. He did not seem at all nervous
for a newcomer.
Works Has Hard Game.
Ralph Works, another debutante in
the International League Company,
who has had experience with Detroit
in the big circuits, was not treated
very Hospitality by the Bengals
Works was raped warmly as a half
dozen hits and four runs in the fourth
and fifth rounds will vouchsafe
Moran, however. the green recruit
whose southpawing worried the tt
gers at Providence, eve though they
defeated him, showed a complete re-
versal of form and had a Tacks Neuer
round, in which he issued a pair OF
passes, used three Tigers for targets
and was hit three times for a total OF
eve runs In the seventh round
Enzmann inauguarted the jamboree
by being hit. Tooley hunted safely
and Collins fell a victim to Moran's
target practise, choking the bags.
Bernard was hit forcing In Enzmann
After w. Zimmerman popped out,
Gagnier was safe on Shean's error and
Tooley scored. Eddie Zimmerman
walked, forcing in Collins. Higgins
singled, producing two more runs.

Bernard swatted three more singles

Grays Play Poorly.
The Grays scored ono in the first
sixth n ninth rounds and in the
eighth they pushed two runner
around when Enzmann who had q
nine-run lead. eased up. A couple OF
singles, a pass and a sacrifice fly en-
dabled Platte to score in the opening
inning. Schmidt's scratch hit, sue
ceeded by Bauman's single, Duggan's
walk and Atz's fly scored Schmidt II

punched hits for W more runs in the
eighth, while Schmidt scored the last
run for the visitors in the ninth or
his fourth safety. Bauman's infield
hit and Tooley's tumble of Ats
