The days engagement showed the in
fuenco ~ environment shaw and
Pieh had speed. TO be sure, but their
effectiveness was materially increased
by the TACT that nature had forgotten
TO turn on o.. the lights. Playing as
they were with the shades pulled down,
batters had little chance 70 see let
alone hit the fast ones. The bail, the
one that carried back and shoulders
behind il, leaped out OF the murk and
past the batter with ell the speed OF q
streetcar eluding a passenger. FIeh
and Shaw are both big, strong men, ana
both used every ounce Of speed when
ever they were pressed yesterday. Al
though the lack of light seemed 10
bother the bstters not little It mad
no effect upon the felders. The defence
~ the Yankees particularly was brill
liant.
Upon the few occasions Pieh pitched
himself into q hole there was always
teammate ready 20 help him out. mus
in the seventh when TWO passes and a
safe bunt had filed the bases, HartzelI
caught GanCIs fly and shot Il home IN
time to get Foster trying for the plate.
The fv was not overly long but Fos-
GER IS a fast runner and accuracy was
required Of the outhelder. The ball

in an attempt TO sacrifice, but Shaw
ceized the ball and threw 10 second IN

naugb struck out. II appeared as II
the pitcher would get out OF ms Glr-
cuIties. but Maisel struck blow wnlch
was epoch making. He drove the Dali
eafelv into right field, and this was the
frst hit made against Shaw. 1t was
also the only clean hit which the young
Washington pitcher allowed during 'he
afternoon. On such NIT most run,
rers might walked home from second
base, but Cy P.eh was content 10 go as
far as third. ,
With the bases full Pipp topped a
hall and sent a slow bounder close 10
second base. Nef tried hard to force
Naisel at that bag, but the little comet
wa, too fast for him and beat the
throw 70 Mcbride Pieh came home on
the plav. There was 10 more scoring
for Cook struck out.
The Yankees had only one ,otner
chance 10 score against Shaw. and thar
came in the fourth inning. After fecK-
jnpaugh had walked. Maisel forced MN
and then stole second. An inheld OUT
put him on third and he attempted 70
steal home. He was out, but the
margin of defeat was slight.
Boone made noteworthy play IN the
Afth inning when he leaped two three
or four feet and got GandiPs liner IL
was not so much the height he OBJ
tanned which was commendable as ms
skill in timing the leap: AAyres pitched
the eighth inning for Washington.
The two teams, which are battling
for fourth place, will play a double
header to-day. Johnson and Cald"eIl
will probably be the contenders IN one
o' the contests.
