Worse than defeat-even such mex
cusable defeat-was the loss OF Ar
mando Marsans with the extra inning
game. The Cuban. who since July II
has shown the only sign of spunk or
life in the New York outfield, suffered
a badly fractured left leg in scoring
the sixth run of New York's opening
rally.
Marsans had to slide inside OF O'Neill
TO beat Roth's accurate return OF
low line drive. His spikes caught the
dirt after the shoe had dragged over
the rubber. The leg buckled under the
strain of the players full weight. Mar
sans came out of it with a dislocated
ankle and a Potts's fracture. He will
be laid up for the rest Of the season.
The Cuban was borne OFF the field on a
shutter, suffering great pain, the
mournful Harry Sparrow trailing the
first aid corps.
Poor Outfelding
With smart outfelding, or rather
with fielding of average smartness,
Cleveland never could have come close
TO the six runs the Yankees rolled up
in the first inning Even Marsans him
self, before he fell under the Yankee
curse, spotted the visitors their first
run. Though Marsans, so far as that
goes, was the only outhelder who broke
a leg-literally or tiguratively-in try
ing TO make up for his mistake.
Hughie High, Tim Hendrix and FL
mer Miller (the latter succeeded Mar
sans made no effort 10 catch fly balls.
They depended on the sense Of hear
ing rather than upon the sense Of sight.
They listened till they heard the ball
drop and then gave pursuit. And
such pursuit. They slipped and slid
all over the greensward, stalking the
the puniest flies or the puniest singles,
as the case might be. The Humane
Society should either provide those
Yankee outfelders with new shoes or
stake them 70 a file.
Perhaps it didn't make the least bit
of difference. 1t was just in the cards
for him to lose. But IL did seem that
Wild Bill was bit wilder than usual
When he strung along so far with
George Mogridge. Cleveland from the
start took kindly to this fellows south
paw slants. Had Shawkey gone in
round or two earlier he might have
been able 70 foil the Yankee outfeld.
Shawkey pitched by far the better ball
of the two.
Chapman walked with one out in the
first and took second when Speaker
singled through Baker. Marsan'
mufFed Roth's line drive, and the bases
were filled. Chapman scored while
Peckinpaugh Was tossing cut Harris.
Peck ended the inning with neat play
on Wambsganss.
That run looked like nothing by the
time the Yankees had finished their
first turn at bat. Hendryx beat hit
20 Evans and got an extra base when
the latter threw low. Maisel tapped
10 Chapman, who threw wide for Hen
dryx at third. Everybody was safe.
Peckinpaugh singled to right, scoring
Hendryx, and moved to second on the
thrcW-ln.
Pipp singled TO left, scoring Maiscl
and Peck. He, too, got second on
Speakers throw to the plate. Baker
doubled TO left, scoring Pipp. Marsans
doubled to right, scoring Baker. Gould
relieved Ed Klopfer. High sacrificed.
Walters lined TO Roth, and Marsans
scored after the catch, though 1t took
a broken leg 70 do it.
Get Runs Back
Cleveland began 70 get these runs
back by ones and twos. Harris opened
the fourth with a single, took second
on an out and scored on Evans's double
to right Speaker hit home run into
the right stand with two out in the
fifth.
Miller Topped all over the field and
let stingy flies from Harris and Wamby
get away from him for a double and
triple, respectively. The triple scored
Harris. Of course, and ended Mogridge.
Bob Shawkey succeeded. Maisel held
Wamby at third while he threw out
Evans, but 0'Neill scored the run with
a fy to Miller-not much Of fly at
that
Cleveland grabbed two more runs
and the lead off Snawkey in the sew
enth. A hit by Harris got through
Miller. Then Hendryx's throwin got
past Peckinpaugh. The runner pulled
up on third, when he should have been
held 70 first. He scored on Chapman's
hit. which Hendryx played into a
double. PecMnpaugh threw out Speaker.
CHAPMAN taking third. Smith batted
for Roth and raised a tiny. pop fly,
which Hendryx raced in and caught al
most at the edge Of the grass behind
the infield. Chapman raced home in
defiance of Hendryx's short throw.
The Yankees tied the Ccore again IN
their half. Hendryx walked and Maisel
sacrificed. Pipp's single TO left scored
the run after Peck had flied TO Speaker.
From there until Smith settled 1t with
a home run drive into the right field
stand with one out in the fourteenth it
was real pitchers battle between
Shawkey and Coveleskie.
