Newark evening star and Newark advertiser. [volume] (Newark, N.J.) 1909-1916, 1913-06-21

Up to the ninth but three safe.
drives were secured off Bell. The
fast pace told on Ducky Holmes, who
twirled for the Herd, from the very
start, and lucky was he that the
Tigers didn't score in every round.
They started off to do this, but halt
ed their usual run getting in the
seventh, when only three men faced
the Buffalo hurler.
The nine runs scored by the Ben
gals were not all due TO clean hits
ting. however. Six errors behind
Holmes came at opportune moments.
"a
A peculiar play, which created con-
siderable discussion among the fans,
came about in the fourth inning
with the Tigers at bat Harry Smith
started the round with a single and
Bell was safe when Truesdale slipped
up on his attempted sacrifice bunt.
Dalton's two-base smash to right
brought Smith over with the fifth
run, and Bell was halted at third.
Gagnier went out, but the sacks were
allied when Billy Zimmerman was
passed. Swacina, the next batter to
face Holmes, flied to Hanford in deep
left, and Bell came over the plate.
Immediately after the Bengal pitcher
had crossed the home dish Hanford
threw the ball to second base and
got Dalton, who off the bag apparent
iy thought the ball was not caught,
making the third out of the round.
Some thought double play had been
made and that the run should not be
counted, but the umpire asgwell as
the official scorer ruled that the run
was scored before the third out had
been made which, according to the
official rule, makes the tally legal.

Truesdale opened the game in the
first round with a single. but after
Roach had famed and Hanford had
flied out to Billy Zimmerman. the
Herd middle-stationer died stealing.
The Bengals started with two runs
In the first inning. Jack Dalton
walked and was advanced to second
on Eddie Gagnier's sacrifice. Billy
Zimmermans timely single to left
fetched over Dalton. Swacina du-
pncated in the same spot and Jimmy,
who had taken second on the throw
in after his hit, scored. Swats
ambled all the way to third when
Gowdy's throw to second was also
fumbled by Centreflelder Jackson.
Myers and Eddie Zimmerman then
went out and Swats was stranded on
the bag.
Buffalo again opened with a single
An the second, Jackson getting hit
over second. Again, however, the
next three batters were unable to hit
the leather out of the infield. Roach's
error on Getz, and singles by Smith
and Dalton put three on the bases
when Gagnier stepped to the plate.
Eddie hoisted a short fly to centre,
which jackson muffed and Getz
scored. Billy Zimmerman flied to
jackson and Smith tailed. Umpire
owens, however, ruled that the Tiger
leader had left the bag before the
ball was caught and he was declared
out. The Bengals hit hard enough in
the third session to bring over an
other. Swacina's hit, Myers's sacri-
/. fice and Eddie Zimmerman's safety
beyond second did the trick.
-.
Two more in the fourth and an
other in the fifth were credited to the
locals list. After Myers had been
retired in the latter round Eddie Zim-
norman got a hit to Truesdale and
ran to second when the latter threw
wildly to Beck. Eddie stole third
and came home on Getz's sacrifice
liner to Hanford. The Bengals' final
taliies, two in number, came in the
sixth. Bell opened the inning with a
hit to right and walked to second
when Dalton was passed. Gagnier
sacrificed both runners. Billy Zim-
merman's corking hit past Beck
scored both Bell and Dalton.
"a
Only nineteen batsmen faced Bell
from the third to the eighth innings.
The ninth for Buffalo brought about
a pair of tallies. IaLonge, taking
the place of Gowdy, singled. Muir
ray batted for Holmes and got an
infield hit to Gagnier jameson ran
for Murray Bells wild pitch a mo-
ment later advancing both runners,
almost put Iaarry Smith out. Smith
attempted to stop the ball with his
right hand, and in doing so was hit
on the tips of his fingers. Time was
called but the Tiger manager gamely
resumed play. Had Smith been put
out the Tigers would not have had
regular backstop to continue the
game with. Higgins was on the sus-
pended list and Mccarthy is injured.
Roach's hit over short scored La
longe, while Jameson came over on
Hanford's sacrifice fly. The score.
