Unusuql Double Play

An unusual double play. was turned
at the expense Of the Nationals in
the third. Johnson was on third and
Shotton on first, with one out. when
Judge lifted liner to right Az the
ball appeared headed for safe terri
tory Shotton dashed to second. DEM
nitt made a spectacular catch. but
didn't see Shotton on second. He
threw to the plate, presumably to
catch Johnson. But johnson had hug
ged third. Nunamaker. however, peg
ged to Sisler in time to double Shot
ton of the bag.
After Howard Shanks had been hit
on the head by a pitched ball in the
fourth Manager Burke permitted Act
ing Manager Mcbride to run for the
dazed athlete. After a brief rest. how
ever, Shanks was able to resume play.
1t was the first appearance OF Jimmy
Burke as manager Of the Browns on
the home lot. but because of the heat
only a few more than 1000 fans were
present to receive him.

WOOD NOT FOR PITCHING
Manager Foil Thinks It Too Late
for Him to Come
Through.

II there is to be an addition to the
Indians pitching strength it will have
to come from outside the present ros-
ter Of tribesmen. Manager Fohl would
jump at the chance to have Joe Wood
jump into the breach and help out
Covaleskie. Bagby, Morton, Coumbe,
Erzmann and Groom, but he doesn't
think there is even the ghost of a
show for this to come to pass.
Woody has lost two good months.
that is from pitching standpoint He
has done wonderful work for the club
as whole both in the outfield and at
bat. Truth be told l think he has had
as much to do with keeping US in the
race as any one factor. Possibly he
could pitch for us, but he's OF his
stride as a result of having played
the outfield. I doubt whether he could
round to in time to be of much use
to u.s."
That's Manager Fohrs opinion. But
don't think that the Indians boss
hasn't a high regard for Woods
ability. He holds him in such esteem
that right now he has Joe put in half
of his practice time around second
base He wants to be set" in case
Bill Wambsganns is called to the
colors.
No higher tribute could be paid
Wood. He has worked in the outf1eld
and at first base and covered himself
with glory. Now Fohl is printing him
to play the keystone sack in the event
Wamby is called to the world cause.
With Jack Graney +in the pink" and
Floyd Farmer. the Salt Lake City fly
chaser and batting star. reporting.
Manager Fohl will be well provided
with outfelders and Wood could be
utilized at some other position. II
Fohl doesn't need Smoky Joe in the
outer pasture and Wamby sticks at
second he may dnd a job open for him
on first, but he hardly will be called
on as pitcher.

JOHNSON SHUTS OUT ST. LOUIS
IN 15-INNING PITCHERS BATTLE
Gri6ith's Hurting Star Beats Sothoron,
to 0, in Brilliant Contest Shaw
or Ayers to Pitch Today.

ST. LOUIS. July 2e.-After fifteen
innings of well nigh perfectly pitched
base ball. Walter Johnson shook the
St Louis hoodoo. which has, trailed
the Nationals, in yesterdays game
with the Browns. The flreball. king
was never better and he defeated AL
Ian Sothoron. the chunky Highlander.
in a sensational mound duel by the
tight score Of to 0.
1t was tho consensus Of opinion
among the Browns that johnson had
pitched better against them yester-
day than he had ip many starts. The
home talent usually makes it interest
ing and. too often. uncomfortable for
the speed boy. but yesterday he had
their number. Four hits were made
of HIM
But. while johnson pitched superbly,
ne had to continue at top speed to
nose out the Mound city gang. Soth-
oron permitted twelve hits and was
often in trouble. But it was his abil-
fty to pitch his team and himself out
OF tight places, save in the fatal If
teenth. that made his game impress
siye. His control was excellent. He
permitted one pass and hit Howard
Shanks with a pitched ball. But the
bits OF lost control did no damage. On
the other hand, johnson issued only
two free tickets to first base.

HAGER main STAR
OF AMATEUR BALL
Many Fans and Players Think
Operations Catcher Best
Player on Local Mines.
By Il. G. BYRD.

'Bus" Hager II rated by Q great many
followers Of amateur base BAN n the
best player on the Washington sand1ots.
Not only has the opinion been expressed
by fans, but other players on rival clubs
have advanced It A day or 10 ago q
csftain infelder on one Of the teams in
the Navy Interbmeau League spoke
thus OF Hagers work behind the hat for
Operations:
THAT chap Hager, to my mind. IL by
far the class Of amateur base ball play
ers In Warrington There Ia not a de-
partment OF play in which he is not YER
satile. and he is always thinking Of
something that may be done to better
the work Of his club. He is a splendid
catcher, considered from every angle.
He throws well, receives the ball almost
perfectly. and practically directs the
plays Of his team from his position
And besides all that, he can clout the
ball about as often and as hard as any
body know. Ny hat iS on to bug as
the best pefformer-on any OF the teams
In or around this town."
Many probably will disagree with
the above opinion. but there Is none
who can deny that what 1t lacks of
being true is not much. Hager ac-
tually is not an amateur player.
though he is playing amateur ball
now. He has had experience in pro-
fessional base ball and did exceed

LONG CAREER
Boston's Veteran Pitcher Has Been
Pitching Fourteen
Yea1s.

Dick Rudolph, star HEAVIER of the
Boston Braves. has been pitching for
fourteen years. but the passing of
time doesn't seem to feaxe him.
He started pitching for Fordham
College back in 1905. and two years
later he was ON his way to stardom
as q member Of the Toronto club Of
the old Eastern League. after having
had . bit Of additional seasoning
with a'semi- professional club at Rut-
land, Vt, and with New Haven in the
Connecticut League.
His drst full season with Toronto
was q busy one, for he took part In
thirty-one games. winning thirteen
and losing eight After that he de-
veloped rapidly, and on three occa-
sions won more than twenty games .
season for the Maple Leafs.
In 1911 Rudolph was given q trial
by the Giants. but John McGraw did
not believe he was ready for the big
show and sent him back to the
Toronto club. That decision was one
of the mistakes McGraw has made in
judging players, and he has regret
ted It ever since. for in 1913 Rudolph
was traded to the Boston club. and
what he has done In the way of
standing National League batters on
their heads is too well known to re-
peat here.
Rudolph was q holdout this season
until late in May, whAn he finally
came to terms with the Braves and
signed his contract. In his first start
of the season he beat tho Reds, let
ting Matty's team down with one hit.
and he proved conclusfvely that he
has lost none Of his cunning in the
box.
Early in the spring he tried to pur-
chase his release from the Braves for
10000. but could not put the deal
over. Manager Stallings knows well
what he is worth.
