STANDING OF THE CLUBS

After having pitched Walter
Mails twice in the five weekday
games last week. Manager TeaIey
Raymond of the Seattle Giants
decided to let the lad have all the
baseball he wanted yesterday, and
gave him permission to pitch the
full double-header.
Mails did 1t. He pitched II
innings in a total of three hours
and 10 minutes. 1t was a feat
seldom attempted by even veter-
ans of the diamond like Iron
Man" McGinnity.
And 1t must be said in credit
of Seattle's 18-year-old southpaw,
that although he lost the first
game of the afternoon, 1t was
through poor support, and he woh
his second game through mighty
good pitching. He was as strong,
II not stronger, at the finish of
the last game, as he was at the
start of the first.
House pitched a nice game for
Tacoma. He relieved Peterson In
the third inning and allowed only
one hit during the rest of tho
game.
