or more trying to get a foothol to take
advantage OF the slipping Red Sox.
Hughie Jennings and his Tigers found
the proper niche In the Yankees at the
Folio Grounds yesterday afternoon. De-
troit took the first gam OF the fare

Of 4 to 3.

delivery was a lega. pitch to the batter
and sent Burns to first base. Burns
stole and scored behind Cobb on
Young's single to right field.
Nallin also gave Dauss the benefit OF
the doubt on a number OF questionable
strikes when he was in close quarters.
Especially was this so in the last In

the game through his wildness. The De-
troit pitcher walked three men Ia this
inning, his last pass forcing home a
