HOMERS FOR TY AND SAM
By WILLIAM PEET.

Detroit gave Washington a
fierce beating yesterday, the worst
handed the Nationals this season.
The score, II to 0, conveys in a
mild way the extent of the slaugh-
ter.
Cold figures, as revealed by the
base hit column, show total Of
fourteen swats for twenty-five
bases. The fusillade includes home
runs by Cobb and Crawford, a
triple by Gamer, and doubles by
Dauss, Mckee, and Crawford.
The Tigers were in savage
hitting mood and would not be de-
MED. Joe EDgel started, and Craw-
ford's homer, with the bases full
in the second, finished him. Gallia
worried along until the seventh,
when Ty Cobb lifted the ball over
the right field wall. Then Griff
sent in Wilson, the youngster who
performed with St. Johns College,
of Annapolis, this spring, and who
has Scout Kahoe's Endorsement.
George Dauss had such good
success against the Griffmen Satur-
day that Jennings put him right
back at us yesterday, figuring that
DauSS could repeat. .
AS repeater this Dauss person was
there like a duck. Five scattered hits
was all he yielded. and II was not until
the ninth inning that the Griff crowd
managed to get a man as far as third
base
Despite the one-sidedness Of the score
the game was not entirely devoid of in
terest. Mcbride and Milan pulled of
sparkling fielding plays. as did Bush and
Gamer.
Wilson Gets n Trinl.
Southpaw Johnny Wilson. during the
two innings he labored. was touched up
for a couple of hits. but gave evidence
of a sure enough fielding twirler, and
from the press box appeared to show
more than the average baseball intelH-
gence for a youngster just breaking into
the big show.
Mckee, the first Tiger to face Wilson
in the eighth, came through with a clean
single TO right. Dauss grounded TO the
pitcher, who. by a perfect throw to Nc
Bride, forced Mckee at second. and
Macs true peg TO Gandtl completed
double play.
In the ninth a walk to Hennessy proved
fatal. as Crawford doubled. and on
Cobb's sacrifice fly Hennessy scored, but
Wilson later caught Crawford at second
when Wahoo Sam attempted to take
long lead
Only four times during the game could
the Nationals get men on the bases. La
porte singled in the second after one
had gone, but was given no help by the
men who followed him Shanks hit safe
ly to right in the fifth. with one down.
and he too, was left stranded. The
same thing happened to Morgan in the
sixth with two dead Milan led off the
final inning with a scratch single, but
Gandil forced him after Morgan had
popped to Bush, and LapOrte's single ad-
vanced Gandil to the far corner, where
he died a natural death. as Calvo's
grounder to Bush forced Laporte at sec
ond for the final out.
Joe EnEeI Buried.
Joe Engel retired the Tigers in the
opening inning. but was badly mussed up
in the second. Engel could not seem
to hand out anything the Tigers didn't
hit Two bases on balls, a double. three
singles, and a home run by Crawford
sent over seven tallies.
Gallia relieved Engel during the second
and retired the side, but the visitors got
to the Texan for a marker in the third
on a couple of hits and steal. He then
settled Eown, banking the enemy until
the seventh, when Morgan's boot of
Wits grounder and Cobb'S home run
caused Gallia's removal
Owing to the threatening weather, only
a small crowd turned out and the fans
heaved sigh of relief when il was all
over, for the Detroit gang has left the
city. Tomorrow is another day and we
will entertain the Chicago White Sox
