GRIFFS HERE TOMORROW
FOR GAMES WITH YANKS
BIZ LOUIS A. poUGHER.

The Griffmen are today in Phila-
delphia, undertaking to make a clean
sweep Of the Athletics. Then they'll
come back to town for q grand, rip
snorting series of three contests
with the New York Yankees, just
now out in front. Since a week ago
yesterday the Griffmen have won
six out of eight games played, which
indicates the value Of 300 hitters
like Milan, Rice, and Charity. Also,
it shows that the Washington pitch
ers have nothing particular to COM
plain against in the matter Of batting
support.
Before . large, decorous Sunday
throng the Griffs defeated the Mack
men, 1 to 0, a pitching duel between
Walter Johnson and Roland Naylor
ensuing. After the first frame, IL
which the home boys put across theiS
run, neither team was able to do one
durn thing. The pitching was too
ALFRED good, that's what.
Eddie Foster, rapidly coming to the
800 class as a hitter, plunked a long
drive that bounded on Amos Strunk's
outstretched fingers. By the time
Amos had retrieved 1t, Foster was
camping on third base. He easily
trotted over while Sam Rice was
beating out slow one to Joe Dugan.

Some SGndIOt stun.

The homo team showed some real,
old-fashioned sandlot stun when Sd
Charity came to bat for the FIRST
time. Everything was seen except the
wrangle around the plate. Big league
umpires don't stand for such idle
chatter.
Ed Charity. thanks to his recent
smuggling, has been promoted one
place in the batting order. He is sup
posed to hit right after Rice, taking
his choice among home. runs, triples,
doubles and singles. But yesterday
well yesterday he hit, in sixth place.

1t was a fine mound tussle between
Walter and Naylor. II the Mackmen
received such twirling all the time,
they would have small right to yell.
Naylor was more than merely good,
holding the Griffs to four hits. Luck
was with the home boys, though, ana
so they got the lone run Of the game
But don't think Barney wasn't there.
He was-with feet, hands and brains.
He allowed six hits, but five Of them
came in the last three innings And
when the Mackmen go two men on
the paths in the concluding frames,
Barney turned on a little gas and
blooie!-away went the visitors

Connie exhibited a new frst-sacker

other when Shanks seized his liner
