10 face him. It was the only base on
balls Ray allowed, but il developed into
the only run of the afternoon. From
that moment TO the end. the Browns
were outclassed, even in pitching,
though IL must be confessed the Yam
KEGS looked none TOO formidable against
Groom. But all the tough breaks that
had attended Caldwell in his masterful
performance against Sothoron on Sun
day were on the job to foil Fisher
yesterday
Fisher let the Brownies down with
five hits. No two of these ever came
in any one inning. He gave only one
base on balls, and there was but one
error behind him. Yet he never had
chance after the first inning. No
pitcher has a chance whose team cannot
produce at least one count. Some few
times in the pinches Groom had the
formidable Yankee batsmen swinging
like so many barndoors in gale
Twice Groom pulled through. not by
his own cunning, but because Of SEN
sstional support
Tough Break for Yanks
The toughest break for the Yankees
came in the fifth inning, when. with
three consecutive singles to work on a

opened this inning with clean single
Peokinpaugh was called out on strikes,
though it did appear that Nallin gave
Roger the works on couple of deci-
sions. Les Nunamaker. at least
thought so. and so expressed himself
Nallin halted the game while he chased
the big Yankee catcher to the club
house. Just why Ban johnson hates
New York so much as TO inflict three
umpires on the town is something be
yond the ordinary ken.
Anyhow. when Peck Justly or un.
justly, was declared out, the picture
wasn't entirely ruined. II was the first
out, and Baker was on first The set.
