But you're painting % know about
how Maisel didn't steal home. You
are all a-tremble. You Just must be
told why the fact that Stanage was
plump, instead Of Scrawny, preVent"i
Msisel from scoring that run.
Well, il was this way; Lowder-
milk. in the first part OF the game, was
as wild as your wife when you let me
bRthtub run over Cook was the hrst
man up, and he walked. Peckinpaugh
drove a liner 10 Veach and Cook, VINO
had strayed far from FIST, was dou-
bled after the catch.
Baumann singled 10 left and stole
second Pipp walked, and so did Ma
sci. and. as far as the naked eye could
reach, on every base a Yankee stood.
With three balls and two strikes on
Hartzell and two men out, the three
runners sprinted along as Lowdermilk
wound UP. Hartzell hit grounder
that Bush fumbled and Baumann and
Pipp scored while Maisel was safe
AZ third and Hsrtzell at first before
quiet reigned. Hartzell stole second.
Maisel longed 70 do little tycobolng'
Miller didn't seem TO be about TO brllg
him home, so Maisel started for inc
plate from third on the pitch.
Lowdermilk was astonished' anc
threw low. Stanage, the plump.
blocked the ball on the bound and
threw himself prone on the plate, Ike
a kid leaping on a sled at the top 81
a hill. Stanage's hands and the ball
seemed 70 be under him. So was the
plate, which, according to all rules
Maisel had TO touch.
Maisel was in quandary. lie
couldn't score unless he got Stanage
of that plate. Bill Donovan hastily
called Hennery Fabian and sent him
for a crowbar. Stanage lay there
heavily Had II been Grover Lowder-
milk. only a strip SIX inches VIDE
would have been hidden by the form
lying there, but Stanage covered II
all ike a hen with one chick.
Maisel decided TO touch that part OF
Stanage that was most prominent,
hoping that the umpire would call II
a score. So Maisel stepped on stan
ages head II had some effect Stan
ages hands shot out from under ms
body and in them was the ball, when
he finally had recovered. He touched
Maisel on one foot and Maisel was
out And that's the way Maisel dldn
steal home.
the Yankees did any scoring. George
Mogrdge, recently from Des Moines,
pitched rather good baseball, and de-
served better than his weak-hitting
teammates gave him. New York made
only four hits. and one Of those was
a hit only because il hit a base runner.
The Tigers scored run in the sec
ond inning and two IN the eighth.
These were the only innings in which
they punched hits on Donovan's young
left-hander. In the second, with one
out. Crawford singled TO right, Burns
singled TO left and Young singled TO
centre, sending Crawford home.
Younc's hit went 10 Miller, who aimed
al the plate, and hit the Detroit benta
and Burns took third and Young sec
ond.
Here Peckinpaugh made a brilliant
play that saved Mogridge for the time
being. Stanage lined 20 Peck, wto
made a nifty catch and tagged Young
of second, ending the inning.
Mogridge pulled out Of trouble into
which he put himself in the sixth.
Bush singled. Witt hunted 20
Mogridge, who made d bad throw 20
second. and both runners were safe.
Cobb. Veach and Crawford came up
in order and failed to take any action
toward bringing the runners home.
In the eighth the Tigers won Kava-
naugh batted for Lowdermilk and sin
gled 20 centre, taking third on Bush's
double. Maisel made a fine play in
throwing out Witt, but Cobb singled
70 centre, scoring Kavanaugh and
Bush
The defeat Of the Yankees occurred
under circumstances more sad than
usual. In the middle Of the eighta
Harry Sparrow announced that the
Yankees would play a double-header
with the White Sox next Saturday and
double headers with the 81. Louis
Browns on September 2l, % and %.
