LACK OF PITCHERS
BOTHERS MACKS
And to Make Matters Worse
There Is a Double-Head.

WALKER NOT HITTING

Washington June 26.-Rain. which
prevented yesterdays game between the
Athletics and Nationals. wss not well
coined by either Connie Mack or Clark
Griffith. Neither has a pitching stan
that measures up TO the double-header
size and both face this problem today.
as the local pilot has so decreed.
However. the odds are all against
Mack. He has used his two pitching
veterans-Perry and Gregg-to have
them beaten In tight games, and now
he must face Johnson and Shaw.
Geary is almost certain to work for
Mack in one of the games, but probably
will be saved to show his wares in the
contest in which johnson doesn't work.
1t likely will be Adams. Shea or Watson.
with the last named the probable pick,
against Johnson. But anyway you look
at it. the Athletics will be fortunate to
get an even break.
While George Burns has bettered his
nifty batting mark at the expense Of the
Nationals pitchers, 'Tillie" Walker
hasn't any use for this town at ALL
Walker has been at the bat nine times
in the two games here, and he has made
just one hit. removing his name from
among the first five in the American
League, where he had been associated
since early in the season.

FLUKE HITS MAR
RECORD
Pair of Bingles in Seventh
Spoil Chance for No.Run
No-Hit Game
FITZ COMES THROUGH

1t was a shame for old Jack Coombs
to lose that ball game to the Fhils yes
terday For six innings he hree2ed
along, hitting on all cylinders and drop
ping the hometown boys in one-two-
three order. In that time only eighteen
batters faced him and not a hit or
run was made off his delivery. Old Jack
came mighty near the baseball hall of
fame.
A scratch single and terrible Liece
of fielding on the part of Johnston and
Hy Myers put the parade out of step in
the seventh stanza. Bancroft's hit was
barely stopped by Olson and the runner
beat the throw. Then Ludsrus lifted
n high fly to right and Johnston and
Myers argued between themselves and
the ball dropped safe Cor n single,
scoring the midget shortstop
Justin Fitzgerald. pinch hitter extra
ordinary. busted up the proceedings in
the ninth with clean double to center
and counted on Bancrofts bingle to
right. Cy Williams's sacrifice and
Stocks double sent in the winning run.
Fitzgerald looks like good ball
player and should be seen In action
more often. He is fast. can hit well and
good fielder His throwing arm is a
trifle weak, but that should get stronger.
Fitz is n scrappy ball player and in
jects lots cf pep in his play.
Connie Mack plugged up the hole in
the outiield yesterday when he signed
Baldemero Acosta the young Cuban,
who once played with Washington. The
new player was obtained from Atlanta
and practiced with the AS yesterday.
He will be used in the double-header to-
day. He Is a good fielder and has hit
well in the minors.
This looks as If Connie is planning to
use Rubc Oldrng on first base when
George Burns goes into the army Rube
Is n good infielder and his vast en-
perience will make him valuable man
on the initial sack.
