VzRGINIANS DROP TWO =
TO DONOVAN'S BLSONSl
Hack Ebel Pounded Hard In First Adams Holds
Bisons Well In Hand In Closing Contest, Blu. y
Loses In Eleventh Frame 2 70 /.

Failing dismally to hit when hits
would have won the game, the Vir-
ginians dropped two games yesterday
to the Bisons. s to 0 and 2 to L.
Hack Eibel pitched the first game
for Richmond, and was treated
mighty rough by the unfeeling Herd.
They trampled right over Hack in n
manner which must have offended the
southpaw nightly, as he has been ac-
corded most genial welcome in most
of his starts on the road trip. Eleven
bingles, four of them for extra bases.
were gathered by the Bsons. Rich
mond also got eleven hits. but fail
ed to deliver in the pinches.
Neither side scored until the fourth,
when both Bisons and Virsinians shot
two men across There followed three
scoreless innings. but Eibel cracked
badly in the eighth. four tallies be-
ing registered by Buffalo. Richmond
came back. or tried to come back,
in the ninth. but only succeeded In
getting one man across.
In the second game. long Willie
Adams pitched eleven innings of win
ming ball, a stunt he hasn't seemed
capable Of for the past month. His
habit OF losing has been so firmly
established. however. that not even
this sterling performance could win
game for him. The team. as a
whole. hasn't got the punch so much
in evidence before they left home. and
are failing to come through with any
kind of lead for their hurlers to
work on.
Although they made ten hits In the
second contest to the Bisons' seven.
the game went the way of most of
the recent games.
The Bisons hung up one tally in
the fourth, which was tied by the
Nirginians in the seventh. Adams held
them scoreless for the next six in
nings. but his teammates seemed alb
solutely incapable OF getting another
man around that afternoon. The BIZ
sons winning run in the eleventh was
scored on a scratch single by Chan
nell. which sent Engle in from third.
Hanford got three hits, one of them
a double. out of Ave trips in the sec
ond game Mcconnell put up a good
game at short. slamming out a sim
gle and a double in four tries.
A helated announcement from the
clubowncrs gives the much sought for
explanation for the mysterious ali
sence of Cox from the slab. 1t de-
velops that the right-hander who ex-
hibited so much promise. deserted the
club the day they left for the road
trip. and has not been seen since.
His unceremonious leave-taking
comes as a particularly hard blow to
the virginians. who have been de-
plora blv weak as to pitchers all sea :
SON The Charleston star pitched
only one game for Richmond, which
he lost. but he showed "stHff" which
would be valuable asset to the buff
feted club at this stage of their
stormy voyage.
Young. who bIanked the Bisons on
Tuesday. Is most likely looking
man. In the thirteen innings he has
pitched since joining Knahe's forces
he has been scored on only one time.
The teams lock horns again this
afternoon. hut the Virgintans. have
lost ther chance Of trading standings
with the Bisons in the present series.
The score OF yesterdays defeats fol-
lows
