As 4 parting shot for e. Lincoln Her
FOG and his much abused Reds, the
Dodgers tore victory from the nav of
Dale. star of the Rhineland pitching
staff In a clever mound duel at Ebbets
Field yesterday afternoon. The score
was . to l.
Umpire Quigley. whose heart is softer
than his ply siognomy. spared the centa-
loupe king the pain Of tarrying till the
last spike was driven in his hopes Of
the day. MIR. Herzog was excused in the
seventh inning. He was yociferous and
obstreperous for two or three innings
before he got the gate. He held some
alleged grievance about Wheeler Delrs
actions in the box. Wheeler took a little
hitch with his right foot in delivering
the ball. Herzog objected continually to
this. He accuse. the big fellow OF not
standing Oh the rubber. Quiglcy made
four or rive pilgrimages to the pitching
hill. but could discover nothing that
savored of a breach Of neutrality.
Herzog finally Laid Of Dell. but tried
to board Quigley. lie made some I'M
complimentary remarks from the bench.
Eventually one shaft Of sarcasm got un-
6sr the thin skin Of the arbiter. Mr..
Quigley removed his mask. ak half
way over to the visiting bench and or
dered Herzog to vamoose. Herzog did
not obey at once. Quigley stood i'm
movable like a good setter on a stanch
point for fully rve minutes. When he
hauled out his grandfather's clock the
leader of the Reds took TO his heels.

p%ortunity to save the day In the ninth
inning had he remained. Wagner. who
succeeded him at the short field posi-
ton. was UP with unners on second
and first and two out. II was one Of
the few times that the Reds were In
such need of a real pinch hitter.
Dale and Dell a few weeks ago en-
gagged in a fourteenth inning tie game
at Cincinnati. These young twirlers
hooked up again Yesterday afternoon,
though unlike Dale the Wheeler was
not called upon TO go the route. Robbie
selected Appleton At the start. This
young man gave a good account OF
himself, but was taken out after hve in
nings to make room for a pinch hitter.
Dell BANKED Cincinnati in his four in
nings. though In each the visitors
proved troublesome.
Appleton saved the day for Brooklyn

hits punched In this round was due en-

Brooklyn won the game in its half OF
