Head Work in Ninth Inning and
Daring Base Running Bring
Victory.
SCHACHT is INVINCIBLE
HustIers Hit Only Seven Balls
Out of the In
field.

TWO clever pieces OF baseball STRAIT
egg, one pulled by each team, were
the features of the second battle of
the series between Rochester and
Newark at Wiedenmayer's Park yes
terday. The Hustlers were defeated
2-l, but If 1t had not been for their
cunning in dropping two flies In the
eighth inning to get Schacht running
the bases, they probably would have
been shut out. That was one piece of
inside stuff. The other heady play
was made by the Tigers in the ninth
round-the physical feature of the
performance being contributed by
Gus Getz. With a man on third and
none out, the Tigers did not creep In
on the grass; they held their usual
position. Schu tx managed to dou-
BILE to deep left, partly because
Schacht was winded after running
the bases-just as Rochester planned.
Then AL baked and Schultz went IL
third. Had the infield been playing
in Smiths pop-up might not have
been corralled by Getz. Gus pulled
down the pill in back of second base
for the first out. Right on top of
that Pipp poked hot grounder
through the box. Getz never would
have been able to get near the ball
had he been playing on the grass.
AS it was Gus made a sensational
play, grabbing the grounder back of
second base and throwing to Too ely
for the second putout of the round.
Schultz, of course, scored, as he
would have anyhow had the ball
gone safe, but by playing their nat
ural positions the Tigers had been
able to retire two men with only one
tally being made, whereas, there
might have been two on base had the
Tigers moved in.

plished the feat on q base on balls
and four hits, notable among which
was three-base smash by Catcher

Credit for Captain Zimmerman.


Eddie Zimmerman, captain of the
Tigers, had the say on this play, and
his dope panned out perfectly. The
third man up in the ninth was of no
consequence, and was easily retired
by Hi Myers. Had the Newark team
played for a shutout, taking a big
risk, the Hustlers probably would
have tied the score. and all or
Schacht's good work in the earlier
rounds would have been wasted.
Schacht's speed was entirely too
much for the Hustlers. They were
hitting the ball, but AIS fast one
was skipping, jumping and hopping,
and it was next to impossible for the
Ganzelites to meet the ball squarely.
Up to the ninth inning only two Huky
hits had been made-one by Pipp and
the other by Hoff; both We're little
popups over the infield. Just what
kind of a game Schacht pitched can
be judged from the number OF assists
the Tigers made-nineteen in all.
Only seven balls were hit to the out
field in the entire game. -Four OF
these were flies, which were caught
by Myers and Collins. Billy Tim
norman did not have a single putout.
The HustlerS we're unable to pull
Schaoht's fast one around to the port
side of the field.

Refuse to Jump to Federals.


The rules requiring major league
teams within the pale of organized
baseball to cut down their playing
squads to twenty-five men by May is

discussed every phase of the baseball
war, but, according to Chairman
Hermann, took no further action
Resembling of the rule was openly
pronounced a war measure against
The Federal League, and by it organ
lied ball hopes to prevent the out
laws from winning over players re-
leased by majors to minors.

TIGERS STRATEGY
WINNING FACTOR

Move handled eleven out of twelve
chances at short. Move was charged
with an error on a high throw " hIeh
Tooley juggled long enough for Breen
to reach first in safety in the sixth
inning. Schacht did not go in to
strike everybody out, and the Hust-
lers made him go the limit, too; they
were not hitting at bad ones, as is
shown by the fact that five men wear
ing Rochester uniforms walked. They
were hitting at good balls but were
not landing them safely. The Roches-
ter hits were widely separated, one
coming in the second, another in the
fifth, and the last in the ninth. 1t
was the best exhibition Schacht has
ever given at the local park.
-
Three Long WaIIops for TIge.
The fan who likes to see long hits
had many chances to enthuse, for Ed
die Zimmerman was there with two
long doubles and Tooley had two
singles and a triple. 1t was not on
their hitting, however, that the Tigers
manufactured the two runs which
brought victory. Good base running
figured in both of the tallies The
first Newark run was carried over
In the fourth inning by Eddie Zim-
norman. With two gone Eddie
doubled to right field. Getz smashed
one at Mcmillan, who made a most
phenomenal stop. He shot his body
sideways and knocked Gus's low drive
down, holding Zimmerman on third.
Getz got credit for a single. Heck
niger walked, but Schacht got in a
lucky hit, which stopped dead few
feet from the plate. Eddie thinner
man dashed by Catcher Williams as
he was picking up the ball, and all
hands were safe, Zimmermans score
counting.

looking over the forlorn outfit Kitty

however, is keeping stiff upper lip
and says that he will have a team be-
fore June.
Heckinger had a double and base
on balls yesterday and Carlo remark
ed that Mike can hit southpaws even
better than he hits right handlers.
One of the brilliant plays in yester-
days game between the Tigers and
Hustlers was Heckinger's throw to
second catching Mcmillan, after nip
ping a high one that looked much
like wild pitch.
Neikle and Duchienel, the two new
Hustlers, were in uniform and work

REDS INJUNCTION
PUT into EFFECT
Chief Johnson Is Removed from
Federal League Com
test.
GILMORE TO MAKE FIGHT

George E. Johnson, pitcher for the
Kansas City Federal League ball
team, was taken out of the game
after the second inning at Chicago.
yesterday by an injunction issued by
the Superior Court which restrained
the pitcher from playing with the
Federals. The injunction also for
babe the Federal club from interfer-
ing with any players under contract
with the Cincinnati National League
Club from which organization john
son was signed.
James A. Gilmore, president of the
Federal League, stated last night
that the league would make fight
to retain the services of Johnson.
The court action yesterday was the
indirect result, it was said, of the
failure of players Williams, Baum
gardner and Agnew to report to the
Kansas City Club after they had
been signed away from the st. Louis
Americans. In consequence of their
non appearance, President Gilmore
gave the Kansas City Club a special
dispensation permitting them to sign
players who were already under con-
tract with organized ball clubs.
Johnson was enrolled as a result OF
this dispensation.
1t was stated last night that john
sons contract with the Cincinnati
Club included the ten days clause,
which permitted the club to dispense
with the players services on ten
days notice, but failed to give the
player the reciprocal advantage OK
breaking the contract.
The decision In the Killifer case at
Grand Rapids, Mich, recently was
interpreted as holding that contracts
with the ten days clause was invalid.
Refuse to Jump to Federals.

tionals, who were reported to be on
