of the Detroit folks by walloping the
jungalers 10 to 2.
The Tigers were never dangerous. In
only one inning, the fourth, were they
able to cope with "Babe' Ruth's
shoots. Then they punched four hits
off the Red Sox southpaw and con-
verted them into their only two tai
lies.
Jennings started his star left handler,
Covaleskie, against the champions, but
he lasted less than three innings. Cow
ey was in trouble right from the start,
when Walker poled homer over Cobb 8
head in the first inning, scoring one of
the Red hose warriors ahead Of him.
Boland and Cunningham were sent in
by Jennings later in a vain effort to
stop the avalanche of Boston hits, but
they had Indifferent success.
Every one of Carrigan s men with
the exception of Gamer, who played on
y three innings, hit safely off the Tig-
er hurlers.
Navin Field, Detroit, Mich, Sept. 81.
Two of the most effective southpaws
in the American league were pitted
against each other this afternoon in the
final encounter of the year between the
Red Sox and Tigers. Harry Coval-
eski was picked by Jennings to stem
the tide of Tiger defeats. "Babe' Duth
worked for Boston.
After n morning of overcast skies
and fitful showers, the skies cleared
this afternoon and warm sun brought
crowd of $4,000 to the park.
To get little more batting strength
into the game against the Tiger left
handler, Manager Carrigan sent Gamer
to first base in place of Hoblitzell,
and played Walker in center in place
of Shorten.
