CROH'S GREAT WORK
FEATURE OF REDS
EASTERN BATTLES

The showing made by the Cincln-
natl Reds in the course of their in
vasion of the east, which ended in
Philadelphia recently, commands the
respect Of even those who were pull
ing hardest for them to "crack." The
test imposed upon them was severe
one, yet they met it in admirable
style and registered fifteen victories
in eighteen starts.
Their eastern campaign was inau-
gurated in three successive double
headers in New York, and as fans
know, they copied four Of the six
games. Moving over to Brooklyn,
they took three out of four from the
Robins. They then went to Boston
and humbled the Braves three times
in a row, and going to Philadelphia.
made a clean sweep of a series o.
five games.
One of the features Of this invasion
was the all around play Of Heinie
Groh. He didn't do a great deal Of
hitting against the Giants, but he
guarded the far corner in his usual
excellent style, and he swatted the
ball hard in Brooklyn. Boston and
Philadelphia. His most deadly execu-
ton was accomplished in the face Of
the offerings of the Phillies' pitchers.
| In that series he delivered twelve
hits, including a home run and two
in twenty-four trips to the plate.

Jimmie RING HAS
HARD LUCK AGAIN;
LOSES IN 10 GAME

ST. LOUNS, Sept. 6-Jimmie Ring
was given another hard luck defeat
in the opening contest of the series
between the. Reds and the Cards here
yesterday afternoon. After he had
held the Cardinals scoreless for seven
innings, a muff by Wingo allowed one
a victory. l to o.
Doak, the st. Louis hurler, had a
run to cross the pan, giving the Cards
big day. He failed to strike out a
single Red, but all of the latter's eff
forts were wasted on slow infield
grounders. He worked well in the
pinches, and cut off any attempt
made by Moran's men to rally.
The Reds defeat did not make any
difference in their relative standing
in the league, however, as the Giants
also lost and the lead of seven and a
half games enjoyed by Moran's ath-
letes is still good. Brooklyn handed
the Giants a ? to ! wallop With
eighteen more games to play, the Reds
can lose four and win fourteen and
clinch the pennant regardless of what
the Giants might do.
Groh Back In Game
Heinie Groh returned to the contest
after weeks layoff, and started yes
terdays game with a hit. Groh's fin
ger is still causing him considerable
trouble. Hank Schneider, who held
down the hot corner during Groh's alb
sence, was sent back to the bench,
after successfully filling Heinie's place
last week. Schneider showed real
major league style. both in fielding
and hitting. and proved himself to be
a valuable addition to the Reds in
field.
The Reds play the second game of
the series with the Cards this after
noon, and it is probable that two
southpaws will do the mound work.
Ferdinand Schupp is scheduled to
pitch for the Cards, and Slim Sallee
is due to work for Moran. The score
