AINSMITH FORCES
JOHNSON TO TRAVEL
THIRTEENFOR WIN
By WILLIAM ]. sLoCUM.


NEW YORK. June 22-walteF
johnson had to go thirteen innings
to win q ball game that should have
been q shutout in nine innings, but
he got there finally with the victory.
But for q wild throw to third BY
Eddie Ainsmith and a horrible nun
in left center by Zeb Milan, the
Yankees would have found third base
q dead line in the third game OF the
series. These misplays furnished tive
runs, and made the going all the
more difficult for the Kansas Cyclone.
It was fitting that Milan should
finish up by striking the deciding
blow for his team The usually re-
liable Zeb forced a few Thousand fans
to freeze for four more innings when
he let an easy fly get out Of his
clutches with two down in the ninth
and a runner jogging home from sec
ond, simply because running is Gus
tomary.
Pratt Scored ON HuR.
Pratt had no idea as he moved
slowly toward the plate that he was
carrying a tieing run on his Shout

Then in the thirteenth. with one out
and Nationals on first and second
base, zeb atoned for his misplay by
smashing a single over Peck's head,
and Foster carried in what proved q
be the winning marker

nings he allowed exactly fve hits
and they were scattered over four in

Only two OF the hits were solid slams,
Marsans getting one in the eighth
and Pratt one in the ninth. Pratt
and Gilhooley got into the hit column
on scratches and Hannah on q little
Texas Lacquer that fell out OF the
reach of Judge. Morgan and Shotton
near the right field line in the eighth.
None Reached Third.
Except in the eighth and ninth In

sible the New York runs. not q Yam
kee reached third base. In fact only
one reached second in the innings
other than the eighth and ninth. That
was Gilhooley, who was sacrificed In
the first and stole as Peck famed in
the sixth. That is how helpless the
heavy hitting Yanks were before the
wizard
In the eighth Marsans got one OF
the two clean hits, a single to left.
and Hannah followed with his Texas
Lacquer to right. johnson made a
low pitch, the ball bounding a few
yards from Ainsmith. Marsans busted
for third and Ainsmith, hurrying his
throw. made a poor peg, the ball
off Fosters leg. Marsana
