run. They scored a single tally in
each of four other innings, giving them
"a total of five.
The Yankees got couple of hits in
the third inning at Shaw's expense, but
did not hit safely after that until the
seventh, when they scored their only
run.
The Nationals first run was the re-
suit of three hits in the third. Henry
started off with drive to right and

the general belief
Walter johnson most likely will be
the pitcher to face the Yankees today
Tomorrow Griffith probably will send
G;llia against the DonoVanites because
of his victory over them at NashinS-
ton few days ago. and there IS every
reason for believing that he will work
Shaw right back against the locals
Monday, which will be after he mas
had three days rest.
Shaw is another of those pitchers
who when once in form must be Kept in
the game regularly in order to do their
best work. Besides. Griffith is anxious
to get four OF his twirlers in trim to
allow them to alternate in every series.
and he will have a chance to get such
plans under way during his stay here.
Griffith made an unexpected change
in his lineup yesterday. when he
benched Shanks and sent Rondeau to
left field. This is by no means re-
Election on Shanks ability. but Griffith
is anxious to get a line on Rondeau's
ability as a left fielder. and for that
reason he intends TO play him for a
while at least
When Rondeau came to the Nationals
he was not credited with being fin
ished fielder by any means. Even Joe
Cantillon, from whom he was pur-
chased, admitted that Rondeau had a
lot to learn about fielding, and yet he

bat he hit safely once, scored once.
| and worked the pitcher for couple
of bases. Rondeau, having been out
of the game for week resting. to
cure his game leg, is not in his best
hitting form by any means, and he is
sure to improve in this respect with
every game.
