SECOND GAME.

The second game was all over hardly
before it had started. as the Tigers took
flying jump at Joe Boehling in the
first inning, scoring four runs in easy
fashion.
BOehling could not get his curve ball
working properly, with the result that
Bush and Bauman singled in succession;
Crawford hunted TO Foster. who made a
good throw to Eorgan, who was cover
ing first base. Ray dropped the ball and
the bases were full, setting the table
nicely for Tyrus Raymond Cobb to clean
up, which he proceeded to do with a
smash to left field along the foul line,
and by dint of fast sprintinG completed
the circuit behind Bush, BRuman, and
Crawford.
During the remainder of the game
BoehlinG was hit safely seven times. but
kept the blows 80 nicely scattered that
Detroit could not score.
Two double plays raised havoc with the
Climbers chances. Paddy Bauman. in
the fifth inning, speared with one hand
line drive from BOehlings bat. which,
had it gone safe, would have meant a
run.
Mcbride Singles.
Williams, with a fair curve ball, change
Of pace, and good control, had the Ma
tiOnals on the run back to the bench
until Capt. Mcbride doubled to left field
the fifth, scoring Spencer. who had pre-
Vious,y walked. BOehling's line drive,
which Bauman converted into a double
play, cropped out right here and a rally
was nipped in the bud.
The Climbers scored again in the
eighth. when Milan drew a pass and
swiped second. Foster brought him home
with a triple.
In the ninth, a fine, young batting
rally was started, when. with one down,
Henry singled, and Schaefer. batting for
GedeOn. also came through with a blow,
but Mcbride flied to Crawford, and La
