BY WILLIAM FEET,

Detroit. Mich. May 26-The less said
about today's ball game between Grifr-
men and the Tigers. the better WASH
inston lost, 10 to j. and put up such a
miserable exhibition of fielding that an
observer would have imagined some class
Il team was in action.
The only alibi we can present is cold
weather and twenty-knot breeze,
which blew directly into the ewes of the
batters. Pitcher Shaw blames the breeze
for his lack of control. so does Hopper,
but it was noticed that Jean Dubuc,
the Tiger finger had nothing to say
on this score.
Two horrib le innings, the third and
fourth, when Jennings gang collected
nine runs spelled defeat for the Nation
ais. Shaw and Hopper were on the
mound when this slaughter took place
After the fourth. the Tigers could not
score, but they did not need to. for with
such big lead why should they be wor-
ried.
Gandil Is Benched.
Griffs lineup shift, placing "Rippy''
Williams on first base and benching Chick
Gandil. could not be carried through to
the finish. as Eddie Ainsmith split the
index finger of Ns right hand in the
third inning and Williams was promptly
base.
Georgetown Tommy" Connolly, who
out of three trips to the plate came across
| with a couple of safe slams, was also
forced to retire in he sixth inning. pull
ing a charley horse Shanks finished
the game in left field.
The loss of today's contest can be at
tributed directly to Jim Shaw and Booth
Hopper Shaw cut loose with three wild
! pitches, which scored as many runs.
Hopper, in attempting to field a bunt,
slammed the ball into the stands and a
couple of markers resulted.
Dubuc . PaEEle.
A detailed account of Detroit's sue
cessful run hunt would hardly make
good reading for Capital fans. We
will draw the curtain slowly and pro-
coed to tell of certain incidents which
| made the Tiger rooters feel uneasy
and which also transformed a farce
| into a real. sure enough ball game.
Jean Dubuc was a puzzle until the
/ fourth when Foster and Connolly sin
| gled in turn. Milan and Williams died
but Morgan thumped a single to left
scoring Foster. Georgetown Tommy
could also have breezed home on this
clout, but he slipped and fell just as
he was rounding third base and scram
