The Birmingham age-herald., 1916-05-29
Well, We got 'em yesterday.

It took a. couple of hurlers, bit of strategy and a combination of a little of everything to down those Vols, but we certainly did do 1t. Boss Moley took it upon himself to see that the Barons came out 5O-5O on the series with the Ellam clan.
 Moley appeared in hero role him. self and, according to Blinky Horn, the noted scribe of Voltown, Moley was responsible for the Baron win alone. Moley gave the Baron batting order such a terrific shake-up that we couldn't help but win Young Caton, the fans favorite, was shifted back to the lead off position and Fred Derrick, the initial sack CT, was dropped to seventh place in the lineup because of his recent slump in batting.
 Emil Meusel and Danny Clark swapped places in the batting ranks. The wholesome shift did the Bar ons a lot of good for they played an altogether different game and copped the final game of the series and consequently departed from Nashville last night with an even break to their credit with the Ellam bunch.
 Eddie Mcdonald and Danny Clark led the Barons in hitting yesterday each getting a couple or sWats. Eddie also counted couple or times. Another feature of the game was that the Barons went through another contest without committing a pebble. It's getting to be ire ouent thing for the Barons to play a game without making few mls- plays and it's gratifying to see the old nine hit their stride. It means they're playing ball.
 The Barons departed from Nash vile last night for Memphis, where thev take the ChickasaWs on Tor three game tilt. Just who Moley will open with appears to be some what of a puzzle, since the Baron hurlers were used so freely durins the past series, but 1t IS propapie that "Preacher" Perryman will De the chubby ones choice. "Preacher is about the most dependable twlri- CT on the Baron staff at the pres ent and it would not be surprlslns to see the Barons cop today's Iray' Let's hope so, anyway.
 The Little Rock Travellers seem to be playing the form that was a..i tad to them before the start or the season. Critics picked the Travellers to be in the fight for the rag through o,t the season and the selection proved to he sIightly erroneous until recently when the Starr aggregation began 10 nlav real ball. The Pelicans were their victims yesterday. Powell, a recalled cast-off. twirled the Travellers to VIC tory. his queer delivery puzziing the Dobbs' nine.
 The Memphis Chicks are also play ing a good brand of ball, now that George Moriarty has assumed charge of the Bluff City nine. The Cnlcks won the last two games played ana showed better form in each struggle The pitchers are beginning to worK better every day and it begins to look as though the former big leaguer Will pull the Chicks out of their lowly berth.
 Roy Ellam must think that Tom Rogers is another iron man, not in name but in quality. Roy sent the former American association twirler to the mound three times in as many games to face the Barons in the re- cent series and each time did the vet eran respond except yesterday, when the Barons got next to him and pounded out win. The Barons got eight hits for four runs off the Gal latin wonder in eight innings, a lead which the Vols were unable to over come.
 Moley let Dickie Robertson partly re- deem himself yesterday for his poor performance on Thursday Boss Mo ley sent Dicl1ie into the fray in the eighth inning, when Burleigh Grimes sent out the. distress signal. Diclxie pulled through the eighth successfully but barely did escape the ninth with out allowing the Vols to tie the count. Dickie shows better form each day and it begins to appear that the little spitball finger is fast rounding into winning form.
 '"The New York Giants have an ex- cellent chance to establish new tive games won." says an exchange. We'll. I guess they have. That Mc- Graw bunch is showing more fight now than the whole German army could display. The Giants have already won 16 straight battles and here's hoping
