Toughest Luck of All

The toughest Of them all occurred
in the latter half Of this round and
gave Cleveland the ball game. o'Neill
led of with a single down the third
base line and was sacrificed to second
by Babbit. Halt was put on to run
for the slow-footed O'Neill and ad-
vanced to third while Morgan was
tossing out Graney. Then Chapman
came to bat Walter had two strikes
on chappy when he raised a puny
little fly to right. shotton and Nor
gan both went. after the ball and
both got under 1t, but tho fans were
making such a bedIam Of noise that
neither could hear the other calling
for the catch. AS result Morgan
crashed into Shotton and knocked
the ball out Of his hands. Chapman
was credited with a hit. Halt
Threatening weather held down the
attendance, the paid admissions num-
bering less than 200.
Three Of eight hits of johnson were
doubles. but none Of them figured in
the result. Speakers two-ply blow
in the fourth hit near tho top Of the
right field wall. Spoke tried to reach
third on 1t, but was tagged on
Lavan's relay to Foster Of Shotton's
throw.
The Indians threatened in the sixth
when johnson issued both Of his two
passes, but Walter broke up Q double
steal by heading of Graney with a
toss to Foster.
Lavan made a splendid play on Bag

O'Neill was on first. His quick toss
to Morgan forced Steve and Ray COM

Judge. In addition. Lavan, with
O'Neill, was the hitting star, each
connecting for a double and two sin
