and scored q run, and in the eighth he
scored Johnson from third with hit
to left. This hit was made off Rus
sell, left-handed pitcher. 1t is said of
Judge and Jamison that, unlike most
left handed hitters, they are not both
cred by southpaws and hit them as well
as they do right-handers. Judge played
good ball at first, his error being on a
tap down the base line by Johns. which
he tried to toss to first before he had a
secure hold on the ball.
Jamison's record at bat was similar
to that of Judge. He also got a hit in
the first inning, which sent home run,
and he walked in the fifth. In the field
the new outfielder had four chances,
all of which he accepted. He displayed
a splendid throwing arm when, in the

The only base stolen was by j. Col
Inns in this inning, but it was not the
between Shanks and Mcbride as to who
was to cover the bag.
Faber, who is supposed to be the star
of the White Sox pitching staff. did not
look very impressive yesterday. The
Griffmen jumped on him in the first in

tinued to wallop his offerings until his

before the game, but If Manager Griffith

Eddie Foster had a good day with the
stick. getting three out Of five times up.
In the first inning he layped the hit and
run with Judge. who had walked. and
Judge reached third in safety on Fosters
hit right over the first base bag. He
opened the seventh with a double to
right center, but this was wasted.
Though Milan sacrificed him to third he
could not score.
