"DUCKY" HOLMES
NOW A BENGAL
Former Rochester and Buffalo
Twirler Purchased by
Newark Club.
SMITH PLEASED WITH DEAL

With a view OF strengthening the
Newark Clubs pitching staff a deal
was transacted today whereby J..
Scott "Duoky' Holmes, of the Buff
falo Club, will become a member of
the Tiger staff. Holmes, who is a
right-hander, will probably don a
Newark uniform for the first time
today.
The new Bengal slab artist was
formerly a member of the Rochester
Hustlers and starred as an emer-
gency finger for CAMEL for several
seasons. He helped the Hustlers win
three pennants and became famous
the league over as being one of the
best iron men in the league because
he was ready to go in most'any time
and under any conditions with little
warming up. Nothing would suit
Holmes better than to get a whack
at his old team mates in the series
which opens today, and Harry Smith
may give him the chance.
Ed Donnelly, the right-handed
finger, let out to Scranton, may be
returned to the Newark Club by the
Scranton management. Donnelly went
to Scranton on a en-day trial and
got credit for winning two of three
games pitched, it Is claimed, but the
Scranton management now desires to
return him. Just what the ruling in
this case will be Is hard to discern
as 1t may be put up to the National
Commission. Under such an agree
ment any club could borrow players
from the major leagues or a bigger
league to tide them over in cases of
emergency and then return them
without paying a cent for the use of
the player beyond his salary. Why
the Scranton Club decided not to hold
Donnelly is a mystery, unless the
owners are unwilling or unable to
pay the price.
John Camel probably never made
q move he regretted more than when
he let Wilfred Osborn go to Louis
vile. He has hit so consistently that
he is among the American Associa-
tons top-notchers, and 1t is said
three big league scouts were interest
ed in his work.
Lefty" Aitchison has pitched one
one-hit game, one two-hit games and
two four-hit games
For pitcher with a tail-end team
Marty McHale has done fine work.
He has two two-hit and two three hit
games to his credit.
Jack Dalton and Hi Myers. with

last Saturday afternoon and defeated
the Holy Name Club of that place at
baseball, 10 to 5. Sunday afternoon
the Holy Name team defeated the
st. Rocco HI. N. s. nine, % to 0. The

home runs.

stolen bases. Some busy day for
Johnny.

GOSSIP OF THE Big LEAGUE PLAYERS

Gus Williams, the smuggling outfield-
er of the Browns, is blamed by the
Senators for breaking two of their
most promising streaks. His home
run checked Walter Johnson's con-
secutive inning shutout record, and
another such blow resulted In the
ending of Boehling's straight victory
string.
In a twelve-inning semi-profession-
al game in Cleveland one pitcher
struck out twenty batters and his
rival famed fifteen, q total of thirty
five in one game. which is believed
to be a worlds record for any class
Of baseball contest
Pitcher Joy, once a star at Holy
Cross University, has become Nap.
The failure of the recent negotia-
lions for ClevelandNew York trade
launched a report in the Forest City
that Manager Joe Birmingham has
not the power to make trades. 1t Is
said that long distance phone call
from President Somers compelled
Birmingham to refuse to offer the
players he intended to.
Marty O'Toole has recovered so rap
idly from his operation for append
citis that his physicians now allow
him to take short walks every day.
1t is said that he may be able to
pitch a game or two in the last few
weeks of the season.
Oscar Witt, second baseman of the
Tigers, has been suffering from a
severe attack of grip. The team left
him in Detroit when 1t hiked East
on the current trip.
Pitcher Lorenz, left handler of the
Ottumwa, Iowa, club of the Central
Association, who has been purchased
by the Tigers, is said to have cost
81, 500.
Before a recent game in Washing
ton Pitcher Earl Hamilton, of the
Browns, had to use Catcher Alvah
up. Alexander, the only st. Louis
catcher in shape to play, was re-
quired in the preliminary process of
throwing the ball to the bases in
practise.
Tyrus Cobb, who has had so much
trouble with the fans in Philadelphia
in the past, says he would rather play
there than anywhere else from the
standpoint of the fun he gets out of

the Senators two Cubans, is used In

Bob Shawkey stood the supreme test
yesterday, when Connie Mack staked
everything on the former Oriole finger
in the first game against Cleveland.
Bob might have had shutout had
the luck broken with him. AS 1t was
he was satisfied to win by a score OF
IL. Only two hits were made off his
delivery, while Falkenburg was hit
hard. Bakers error paved the way
for the only Nap run, but Frank drove
out three hits to make amends.
A batting rally in the seventh round,
netting the Yanks five runs. brought
victory to New York over Detroit. Both
teams had plenty of hits, but Fisher,
though touched up fifteen times, kept
them scattered New York made
fourteen bingles off Willett and Dubuc.
Timely hitting enabled the Chicago
White Sox to win from Washington.
The Senators were trounced. 5-3. The
losers outhit their opponents. making
nine hits to the visitors five bingles.

First blood in the Giant-Pirate
series at Pittsburgh went to the New
Workers. By score of 2-1 the Giants
downed the buccaneers in an excit-
ing game. Demaree allowed but
three hits and got credit for the vic
tory, but when the Pirates appeared
to be getting him McGraw sent in
Vanguard, who 'irished the game In
a burst of glory in the last two
rounds. Camnitz and McQuillan were
not hit hard, but the Giants made
their bingles count. ~
Cutshaw was again a star in the
Brooklyn line up. This phenomenon
raped out two home runs and made
enough tallies TO defeat the Cubs
single-handed at Chicago. He was
responsible for four of Brooklyn's
seven runs, while the Evers aggre-
cation got only four hits and one
run off Allen.
Home runs by Becker, Luderus and
Cravath practically decided the con-
test between Philadelphia and St
Louis. This trio smashed Doak's Of
ferings for circuit swats after St
Louis had taken 80 lead and held
it for six innings. Mayer was on
the hill for the Philadelphians.
