Those who are wondering what was the
matter with Elier in the second game may
find the answer in this statement by his
mother:
"Hod had hurt his arm the night before
he pitched The second game. He was SO
anxious to so into the box and win an
other game for his club that he concealed
the real extent of his injury from Pat
Moran. His arm was quite swollen from
the tall and. of course, handicapped him
considerably.
Along in the second or third inning of
the game. Hold confided to MIR. Moran the
seriousness of his injury. BY that time the
Cincinnati clup had such big lead that
Mr.. Moran felt that he was safe in keep
ing Hold in the box. Mr.. Moran advised
Hod to take things easy from then on
and only to pitch to the full limit of his
power when he (Moran) signaled.
AS everyone knows, Hold went along
very nicely Tor six or seven innings, but
then the strain began to tell He couldnt
put any real curve on the ball and he
couldn't get any speed behind it, nor
could he control it to any extent. AS a
result the White Sox found little difficulty
in hitting him during the closing innings
