I igers Shut Out
7 ankees With
Only -Four Hits
Kallio Strikes Out Eight, but
Russell Walks Them
in Procession

DETROIT, June 15.-Aoart from oc-
casional scoring by the Tigers in
ZANE in which the slugging streak Of
Huggins's men was checked and they
were beaten. to O, two things claimed
chief attention. Every time one looked
up from the score book Rudi Kallio,
the Russian member of Jennings's
pitching corps, was striking out a New
Yorker or Allan Russell was handing
out an intentional pass to soms home
hitter.
Kallio got eight Of the Yankees over
the whiting route and played no favor
ties. Pratt being the only one of the
first six men in the batting order to
escape, while Peck and Bodie were
taken twice each. Russell, who also
pitched strong game after the first
inning, where the Tigers hit IS they
used to, was continually in holes. He
walked Spencer once and Yelle once,
on each occasion to get Kailio. who
struck out each time, and he partially
pulled himself out the third time, when
he filed the bases by gift to He'll
mann with no one gone, only one man
counting in this round.
1t didn't matter much what Russell
might do. Only four hits were secured
off the Detroit 6eceiver, and no two
were punched. Also, none was made
who got on, one being walked and an
other reaching the sack on an error,
but two passed the initial station. It
was the fr-t time this season that any
Detroit pitcher has managed to hand
set of blanks to an opposing club.
Everybody Hts but Cobb
Everybody on the ball club excepting
Cobb, who struck out, evinced liking
: for what Russell was serving up at the
start of the game. Bush welcomed him
with double to the left field, after
which Cobb had one strike called and
missed two others. Here the official
1918 autopsy in cases where REGULAR
hitters are famed was held, the Tigers
calling for The ball to see what Rus
| sell was sr' caring on it.

Pratt, forcing .Heilmann, md Pratt's
peg to Walters dubbed Cobb at the
plate.
! Weak-hitting Tigers assembled the
final tai for their team. Yelle peeled
off a double in the eli hth, with vo
men out, and scored when Kallio hit
safely to left. The la ter got to third
on the throw to the pl ite, with Wal
ters's failure to block it. but was left.
New Yorkars who got on were few,
as already told. Gilhooley walked in
the opener, but Peck hit into a double
play. Marsans doubled t. ssart the
third. Pratt singled with two gone in
the fourth. M irsans was safe on
