Mogridge Holds Rivals to
Three Hits, but Meets
with Defeat

Chicago. May l2.-Desth Valley Jim
Scott stopped the mad career of Wild
Bill Donovan's Yankees here this after
noon by outlucking Southpaw George
Mogridgc. The White Sox won on three
hits by score of TO /.
Chicago's triumph robbed Mogridge
Of chance to equal the performance
OF Babe Ruth, the celebrated southpsw
of the worlds champion Red Sox. Ruth,
undefcated this year, has turned in
seven consecutive wins. Mogri6ge
would have had four.to his credit had
he not bumped into pecks Of trouble to-
day.
Donoyan's clever southpaw did all
that mortal man might be expected to
do to keep his winning string intact.
George was one of the four major
league pitchers who had turned in n
no-hit game this year. His no-hit game
was no more effective tl.an that of to-
day. Errors spilled the runs that fell
into the nav of the Sox.
Jim Scott Rejoces
Death Valley Jim emulated another
celebrated Scot who took lesson from
the lowly spider. For three years
this hard working right handler of
Clarence Rowland had been trying TO
nut one over on the Yankees without
success. lie tried once more, as he
tried before, and this time he did not
fail.
Donoyan's Yankees were away off
color. They clouted Mr. Scott as they
usually clout him not with the Gus
tomary fervor. perhaps-but squsn-
dered opportunities by faulty base run
