NEW YORK. juno 1s.-Washington
topped all tho clubs in the league In
the number Of games won In the first
intersectional clash on the other side
OF the .Avleghenies finishing with
eleven victories and six defeats. for
a percentage of SAT. The eastern
contingent as a whole did better than
their western rivals. coping thirty
four of the sixty-six battles waged
on the frontier, despite the advantage
that lay with the White Sox, Tigers,
Indians and Browns in playing on
their own grounds. The Nationals
started off by taking three out Of
four from Cleveland. then annexed
four out of five from Detroit and
broke even in n four-game series at
St. Louis and Chicago. This was q
splendid record when 1t is considered
that upon quitting Cleveland Grin
had only four pitchers, one of whom.
Shaw, was suffering with a sprained
ankle. The pilot was forced to call
on the veteran comedian, Coach AL
trock, and the old boy delivered by
splitting fifty-ffty in two starts.

ing even with New York, taking three
out of fve from Boston and four

ries with the Griffs was the only one
Fohrs team lost. bagging only one
victory in this set.
The game played yesterday In the
Sixth city is not included in the fig
ures, as it was brought forward from
July 81 and will be accounted as one
of the second western trip of tho
eastern clubs. The Yanks and White
Sox each won nine and lost seven, the
former doing their best work in TAX
ing four out of five from st. Louis,
while the White Hose made hay at
the expense of New York and Phila-
delphia. Boston, winning nine and
losing eight. performed most val
iantly in Chicago. where it blanked
the White Sox in three out of four

Team Close to 500 Mark

Again the Nationals find themselves
on the threshold of the 500 mark in
the standing of the clubs. Several
times this season they have been
within a game or SO Of this magic
line, which. once reached, supersti-
tiously is held to mean that club
can climb to dizzy heights above.
AS a.result of the victory over the
Indians yesterday they are now but
one game removed from the goal. and
they are going to strive desperately
in the opening encounter with the
Yanks this afternoon to reach 1t, and
once there they will fight like terriers
not to slip below the mark. Shaw
is slated to bear the hurting burden
in the opening battle this afternoon.
Jim usually does his best work on the
Polo Grounds and is confident he can
account for the initial clash.
II the Nationals could play all their
games with the Indians they would
have to be figured as sure-enough
pennant contenders. Yesterday in
Cleveland, although Ayers had yield
ed two runs by the third inning. they
drew up from the rear and pounded
out a victory in the seventh. The
score was Washington 3, Cleveland 2.
At no time was victory assured. how
ever. as the Indians constantly had
runners on the bases. and, although
Ayers did not allow more than one
bingle to a round after the third. 1t
required the faultless support he was
accorded to permit him to cop. The
contest provided the spectators with
plenty of excitement.
Cleveland's first run was made in the
opener on Chapman's single and
Speakers double. Chapman also
played a prominent part in compiling
the other, his second safety to center
scoring Johnston, who had tripled
ahead Of him.
