YANKS DO POOR
WORK IN EVERY
PHASE OF PLAY
Pitching Of Ray Caldwell and
King Cole No Worse Than
Fielding and Hitting.
BOLAND IN COMMAND AT
ALL STAGES OF CONTEST

DETROIT. July I4.--Ths Yankees looked
like the Yanks OF bygone years in their
exhibition with the Tigers at Navin
Field this afternoon AMI Jennings's team
had no trouble running away with the
game Donovsn's men hit poorly and
nelded worse than they hit. In the
ninth inning, after the first Yankee had
been retired. there was another outburst
of delayed bat work such as the team
showed In several games recently. but
It furnished nothing except tho consola-
tion of escaping a whitewash. The
score was 12 to 3.
Ray Caldwell, who recently won three
victories in a row wnile every other
member OF the Donovan stan was being
buried IN defeat. proved no puzzle to
the Tigers and his control was a bit of
color. The poor work OF Caldwells sup
porting cast was reflected In Sims
showing, as he would have escap ped with
a more respectable score II the Ysnks
had fielded as they usually do. With
the Tigers In front. to o. Donovan
gsvs Caldwell a vacation after six In
nings and let King Cole work consid-
cradle widness and few base hits out
OF his system
The Yanks had no chance against
che brand OF pitching served up by Bo-
land. 1t was on a par with the per-
6ormance OF Coveleskis yesterday and
there IL some question that the Dono-
VAN boys would have scored but for
6olands deciding to take things easy
under twelve run lead. For eight In
n!ngs the Yanks were unable to push a
runner around to third base and when
Cree opened the ninth with a fy TO
Jacobson shutout appeared certa in.
Their Hartzell and Boone dropped sin
GIes into centre. just out OF Jacobson's
reach. and the singles were followed
~ two doubles. Schwert getting one and
Nunamaker the other. This exhibition
OF punched hits chased home the three
Yankee runs.
All the Tigers who lad a chance TO
nit managed to hit safely with one ex-
ception. The exception was Tyrus Raw
nond Cobb. Both Caldwell and Cole
showed that they knew how to keep
Ty from hitting. The former handed
him one pass and the King handed him
two. Ty drew a vacation when the
Ysnks came to bat in .he ninth and his
successor. jacobson. had no chance to
hit
Caldwell went along finely until two
were out In the second and then a mis-
cue by Maisel started trouble Fritz
fumbled grounder from Burnss bat
and the latter moved along to seroni
while Bush was beating out a dinky
bounder to Baumann. Stanage's clean
drive along the left field line chased
Burns home and Boland furnished a
surprise with clean single to right
which sent Bush across.
The bombardment was heavy in the
third inning. Young opened with a sin
gle TO centre and Caldwell discovered
Cobb's weakness-a base on balls.
Crawford bunted along the chalk line
and Sweeney let the bali have its little
roll in the hope that II would go foul.
The ball rolled in and the bases were
flled. The complete occupancy ended
when Bob Neach hit the first ball TO
the right field barrier for three bases.
after which Caldwell tIghtened and pre-
vented further scoring
In the fourtn Roy Hartzell dropped
o ny ball in left field, but double play
prevented the Tigers from adding to
their run column. In the fifth a pass
TO Young was followed by an infield ou,
and a single by Crawford, the combina-
tion adding another run. In the sixth
three more Detroit runs were manufac-
tured through a pass to Burns. Bushs
sacrifice. Stanage's double to the score
board, Wits single and two Yankee err
rors First Cree let the ball roll through
him and then Doc Cook made poor
throw after recovering it,
Figuring that there was no need 10
waste any further efforts by Caldwell.
