| DETROIT, Mich, July 3O-The re
markable improvement in the Nationals
hitting ever since Mike Mitchell Joined
| them has made it possible for the team
| to win four Of the five games it has
played on the trip. Mitchell not oaly
has contributed more than his share to
bring about these victories, but he seems
to have inspired his teammates with
| hitting proclivities, and as a result the
team is now showing more offensive
strength than it has at any time this
season.
Yesterdays game, for instance. ordi-
narily would have been lost after the
two-run lead which the Griffmen had
was overcome. But the fact that the
Tigers forged to the front did not stop
the visitors; they went at their enemies
with even more determination. and in
less time than it takes to tell it had
regained a lead. only to lose it few
innings later. But there was no stop
ping them, for they continued to hit the
ball inning after inning and finally fin
ished with two-run margin.
Griffith used five pitchers. Shaw was
retired after Morgan's boot in the third,
when the Tigers had scored three runs,
and Doc Ayers was brought to the slab.
He performed brilliantly for the next two
innings. but he suddenly lost control in
the fifth, and after Highs triple had
scored Bush. who had been walked. and
Moriarty, who had been hit. Griffith
yanked Ayers and substituted Bentley.
High was on third when Crawford drove
the ball into the right field bleachers
for home run, after which Bentley re-
tired the side without being scored on
again. He went through the sixth, too,
without being hit, but was taken out in
the seventh to allow Acosta to bring in
the tying. run. Then Engel took up the
running % IN the seventh. High got on
grounder and the bail could not be
handled. Engel retired the next two bat
ters, but High got as far as third when
Johnson was sent in. He walked

the game and was not scored on. though
he was threatened in the eighth.
Mitchell continues to pave the way for
the Nationals victories. Yesterday it
was his three-base hit with two on in
the fourth which really started things go
Ing. The beauty about Mitchelrs hitting
to drop the bali. Once it is to left, the
next to right. and then to center. SO the
opposing flelders have no idea where to
play for him.
He made another timely hit in the sixth
which ordinarily Would have given the
Nationals another run, but Moeller, who
was on second. was thrown out at the
plate by Veach. In the field Mitchell con-
tinues to play brilliant ball, notwithstand-
ing the fact that he is handicapped by
not knowing the peculiarities of the va
rious batters, and also by the fact that
left field is new to him.
Bob Veach saved the Tigers on two oc-
casions yesterday by brilliant throws from
left to the plate. both of which prevented
runs. In the third inning Morgan tried
to score from second when Williams hit
safely to left, but he was out by yards
Moe!ler tried it in the sixth, and Veach

was no question about the decision.

Harry Harper in today's game unless
he decides to send back Jim Shaw. who
did not pitch three innings yesterday

| Cobb ran for Heilman, who singled as
a pinch hitter in the eighth. and the
effect Of having Cobb on the bases i'm

tionals. Cobb was sacrificed to sec
ond, and after Bush had been walked,
Mitchell had to go some distance back
| to catch Moriarty's fly. When the ball
was caught, Cobb dashed for third ard
reached there safely. Bush had start
ed for second, but the ball was thrown
to Morgan. who had a chance to catch
Bush before he could get back to first,
but Cobb bluffed him into holding the
ball while Bush returned to first safely.
Then Bush started as though to steal
and Ainsmith made q short throw to
johnson, which fooled Cobb, but he
managed to make his wav back to
third. Then Bush made real at
inf1elders guessing much that BUSH

trouble. From the time that Cobb got

johnson allowed but one hit during the
two and two-thirds innings he pitched.
but he had a hard time getting loosened
up; he walked three men and hit an
other, but he did not allow a run.
Danny Moeller continues to play most
brilliant ball. Yesterday he had three
hits, one triple, and walked twice, while
his work in the field was of the sensa-
tional order. Moeller Is steadily bring
ing up his batting average, and it may be
only a question Of time before he will be
among the 800 hitters.
Foster, too, is playing a wonderful game
of ball. His fielding is of the best, while
his hitting is not only scientific, but most
productive. Foster is playing third base
SO much better thany any of the other
men in that position in this league that

In the matter of pitchers Jennings APP

than is Griffith. though both teams will
be strong in this respect within a few
days. 1t took everything in the way of
twirling material Jennings had to try to
hold the Athletics in check, and his staff
is as badly in need of rest as Griffith's.
Oscar Stanage had q bad day Of it.
Boehler is none too well versed in the art
of holding base runners on first, and Stan
age was handicapped in this way to such
an extent that six bases were stolen on
him. Foster and Mcbride stole in the
second inning. Morgan in the third. Noel
