held the Rockford sluggers to nine hits
Saturday but lost to 2. Falk starred
both in the field and at bat.
Hitting averages of the Blue Sox up
to Saturday show they are batting 1907

close second with .3S5, Warde 364 and
Lynch and Poole 1913 apiece.
Catcher Mills of Davenport pulled
off some raw stuff Saturday, holding
Marks stick when the latter tried to
bunt. Lister accused him of repeating
this stunt throughout the game and for
time threatened to clean on Lee.
Cutey Fritzie Erlewein pulled off
some Jekyl and Hyde stuff yesterday.
In the first game he contributed three
runs and three hits, yet Kruger, who
scored in the first inning in the first
game, lived on his error. In the sec
ond game Fritzie scored one run by
some fine base running, batted in the
tying run. yet his misplay figured
prominently in the scoring in the
ninth, in which frame Hannibal won.
Erlewein is hitting like a demon
In the first seven games he only Sc
cured two hits. Friday he got four
hits, Saturday one and yesterday five
in two games. In this mess three were
three-baggers and two doubles.
Nicholson and Wolfe, both playing
in leftfeld, pulled off several catches
which brought the fans to their feet

Inning Comeback. Winning at

By PAUL DAHLEN.

With the score to 6 against Aug
ustana, with two men down and two
strikes over, Lundberg started a ninth
inning rally for the Lutherans Sat
urday afternoon, which defeated
Bradley, at Peoria, in a hair-raising
tilt, the final score being to 7. Three
runs were driven across the rubbed il
the last stanza, four hits offered by as
many batters succeeding in outwitting
the Bradley defense. Bradley sup
porters thought they had copied the
game in the eighth inning when, with
the score tied, Graham stole home
for the would-be-w winning tally, max
ing the count 7 to 6. The sensational
batting of the locals, however, spelled
disappointment for the Peorians, who
were playing on their home ground

'CUBS DROP TOUCH
GAME TO PIRATES
Carey's Circuit ClOut Spells Defeat
for Bruins in FOurth-Cleve-
land WallOps SOx.

Chicago, May S.-One circuit blow
gave Pittsburgh l to victory over
the Cubs yesterday at Weeghman park.
Max CareyS bat was behind the ball
when it started on its long journey
over the rightfeld wall, while the
groans of $4,000 fans speeded it on its
way.
1t was a great game TO win and a
tough one TO lose. The Pirates de-
served it, as kantlehner pitched a
three-hit game for his mates, but jim
my Lavender did almost as well, yield
ing only five hits. Three of these were
tWo-baggers, but an overflow crowd
was mainly responsible for the extra
base tackled onto each. The Cubs also
were credited with pair of doubles
and one should have led to a tally or
two, as an error, stolen base and a
walk intruded themselves into the in
ming. The score: r. H. E.
Chicago O00O00000-0 3 l
Pittsburgh 000100O0O-1 5
Observation-Disclosures and Allen
kantlehner and Wilson.
Chicago, May S.-Twelve hits for Is
bases produced two runs for the White
Sox yesterday. Seven hits for IL bases
netted five runs for Cleveland.
That's the story of the South Side
performance which permitted the
league-leading Indians to win their
fourth straight game from the Row
lands, who are now only a game and
a half ahead of the lowly Athletics, at
the bottom of the heap. About 1000
fans saw the massacre.
A couple of boners and a bagful of
bad baseball on the part of the Hose
slipped the combat to the speedy Wis
itors. And it was not until the eighth
that the Fohls put the skids under
Red Faber, who up until this time had
pitched high class baseball. Then the
redskins erased all doubt as to their
superiority over the Pale Hose legion.
The home boys got base hit in every
inning except the seventh and all but
two were wasted The score:
