Heavy Hitting in Seventh In

Mogridge, the biggest pitching noise
in the league hurled Des Moines to
to 3 victory Thursday afternoon over
the scrappy Topeka Savages
The game was one of the hardest
fought local fans have seen this season
and up to the seventh round 1t was
great pitching battle.
Des Moines registered the first run
Of the game in the last of the second
inning The SavageS tied the count
in the sixth and took a two-run LEAD
in the first of the seventh The tying
score in the sixth was manufactured
out of a walk, a wild pitch and dou-
BILE by Mayer. The visitors two runs
in the seventh came as follows: Lat
timore walked, Cochran and Monroe
sacrificed. Grover was safe on an err
ror and Rapps, hitting for Trainer,
singled, driving in two runs
However. a two-run lead was not
sufficient to win the contest and IN
the last of the seventh Isbelfs men
Knocked Grover from the box and
scored four runs in the knocking.
Tex Jones was the heavyweight
who was largely responsible for Gro
ver's retirement With two on ahead
of him TEX lifted one over the LETT
field fence for home run Another
run was made from Grover, and then
Lakaff was sent in and stopped the
score leakage.

itors and in the last inning made a
running one-handed catch in right
center and a quick return for a double
play.

October, 1914. Mack, it will be re-

for Collins, McInnis, Barry and Baker,
the four members of the far-famed

him $4,000, which was practically
so much clear profit, and but for the
defa1cation of J. Franklin Baker, the
Athletics stockholders probably would
have stuck another $4,000 in their
pockets.

balls off the youngster and walloped

let the Yanks down with three hits
but lost by the tough luck score of
80, when his mates kicked the game
away.
There is probably another reason
why Mack is laboring so diligently to
build up a new machine-he wants to
give some of his knockers the big
guffaw-those who knocked him fol-
lowing the series with the Braves. The
roar of the multitude still is sweet

seem right to him that he should be

Writing from New York, George B.
Holmes says Connie Mack is building
a chassis for a new machine. meaning
a new baseball club Here is the
way Holmes puts it:
Slowly and laboriously, but withal
cheaply, Connie Mack is building a
chassis for a new machine. His ma
terial is costing him nothing, and all
the elongated leader is out is the time
he puts in training it in the way it
should shoot.
by this same simple method, Mack
