\ Cledn-CuI, regular jail SdIllS
was spoiled in the sixth inning al
Florida Avenue yesterday, when
the New Yorks blew up complete
", booted the ball around, un-
corked wild throws, and misbe-
haved scandalously aheld.
Washington took advantage OF
all this bad baseball, made hits
count. and won as it pleased, 9 to
i, although until the sixth Marty
McIale, the Jersey City recruit,
allowed but one hit, and it looked
las if the Climbers were up against
a tough proposition.
/ Griff started Jay Carl Cashion,
!who has been idle since last May,
on account of an injury to his
arm, sustained in a game against
ECleveland. Jay Carl worked six
innings, when he was relieved by
Joe Engel, who pitched the next
two, only to give way to Bentley,
who twirled the ninth.
Cashion was bothered with his
same old trouble, poor control, for
he only passed seven and hit
three. Outside of that he was all
right.
Off the combined deliveries of
Messrs. Cashion, Engel, and Bent
ley the New Yorks got one safe
hit, single by Knight in the sixth,
which paved the way for the only
run obtained by the Chancemen.
The Yanks tossed seven errors into
two innings and after the sixth the game
resolved itself into a farce, even old re-
liable Ed Sweeney Joined the process
sion and contributed a couple of miscues
at critical stages.

blow registered being a corking three-bag-
