another in the second.
Ayers got by for one frame. but three
blows brought q Tiger tally in the
fourth. Young singled. Foster tossed
out Stanage. but Cavet got a single to
left before Bush whitfield. Wits stroll
filled the bags. and Cobbs single scored
Young before Crawford famed with
the bases loaded. The Richmond thun-
dcrbolt kept his head we'll and deserved
better luck.
Cobb started the seventh with a triple
to left, scoring on Veachs single to
right. That was the Tigers final run,
though they threatened in the ninth.

ter's toss for double play. and the
Morgan's triple. followed by Aim
smiths death. gave the Griffmen their
first run in the seventh. Danny Noel
ler's home-run wallop over the left field
fence, hearty clout. provided the sec

ed. You have to thank Rippy Williams,
| boys, for that cheerful ending. He
did 1t.
George Dauss and Walter Johnson will
engage in a pitching duel on the get
away day tomorrow. The Jungaleer
has been going good this spring and
the Gritfmen. johnson lost his one
game Of the year to the Tigers a
week ago last Sunday and is out for

sixth: In his three trips to the plate
was hit by pitched ball. He chased
in the field; Acosta played out there
in the ninth, having replaced johnson
on the bases.
Ainsmith's throwing to bases was uni
formly poor.
Morgan should not have scored in the
seventh. He opened with a triple. Ain
smith rolled weakly to Kavanagh, who
forgot all about the run going over
preferrtng to retire Ainsmith and then
hold the ball. That was merely a bone
play on Kavvy's part.
Moeller's home run cleared the wall by
ten feet. In Washington 1t would have
fallen far out over the f1elder's head
and then rolled to the left field side OF
tho jury box.
1 Kavanagh's bone play was matched
by one Of Ainsmith's. In the second
Young was at the midway when Cavet
famed. Ainsmith dropped the third
strike. Young was slow to be off, bu
he easily made third, as Ainsmitl
chased Cavet down the line. Had Ain
smith thrown to Gandil the latter coult
easily have caught Young at third.
When Bush stole second In the SECOND
inning, Mcbride put UP a howl that h,
had tagged the runner. Dope" Eld

that Mcbride will be suspended for hi
offense.
