DRIcE AND CHAPMAN viii do
the haavy work for the Crack
ers in the opening game with
the Pels to-day.
Paul Musser pitched a grand arti-
Gle Of ball yesterday. and won the
second and last game Of the series
from the Gulls. Paul was never in
any great danger. and had every
thing his own way.
We scored in the first inning, and
it looked like enough to win. We
made sure, however, and scored two
more in the seventh on clean hitting.
And that was enough.
They scored in the seventh, but
could not find Musser for more than
one run.
The Crackers certainly had lot
OF life in both games, while Mobile
was dead and never had a word to
say.
The Gulls have left on a long trip
around the circuit, and within a few
more days there will be another lead
er in the league
July will prove to be a great month
for excitement in the pennant race
in the Southern. Mobile, Chatta-
nooga, Montgomery, Atlanta and per
haps Birmingham will be in a big
scramble, and they will make some
trouble before the season is over.
Now that we are on a winning
streak and our twirlers going good
again, and with our two weeks at
home. we will start to climb and be
up where we belong before long.
Price should win his game, as he
is going good and has something on
the Pels.
