Indiana daily times. [volume] (Indianapolis [Ind.]) 1914-1922, 1920-09-01

Joe McCarthy's Colonies arrived in
town today to open a four game series
with the Indians at Washington park
this afternoon and the usual hot sketch"
between the Hoosier and Kentucky RI
walls is promised
This is the Colonels' final appearance
in Indianapolis for 1920 and the Tribe is
anxious to take a decisive fall out of
them, but to gain the decision is not
going to be an easy matter.
Big Clint Rogge was slated for mound
duty this afternoon and he had sufficient
rest to make him appear a winner.
The Columbus Senators departed last
night. after getting an even break in
Tuesdays double header, an achievement
that gave them four of the seven games.
After winning the opener yesterday, L
to 0, through Jones great pitching. the
Indians tried hard to win the second by
a sensational rally IN the ninth, but they
fell short and the Clymers copied,
to 3.
In the opening struggle, Lefty George
only daring base running by SINNERS
got the Tribe the lone run Of the con-
test. It came IN the third inning. Jones
singled and was forced by SINNERS, but
Ralph made up for 1t by stealing second
and third, whence he scored on Kores
sacrifice fly. Coyington followed with
single. but was forced by Rehg. and that
ended the scoring for the game.
1t was one of the best games seen at
the yard this season and Paul Jones dem
onstrated his good pitching prowess by
tightening whenever danger threatened.
George allowed only four hits, while the
Senator's got six off Jones, but they
couldn't solve Paurs slants when men
were within scoring distance.
In the second game, Petty and Mulren-
nan hooked up for the second time in
the series and 4lulrennan won again
through the great fielding OF Branard in
center. This player ran all over the
landscape, it seemed. to grab Tribe
drives, two catches on SINNERS and one
on Smith being of the spectacular order.
Going into the ninth the Senator'S had
the game, 10 0, but the Indians were
still scrappy despite the handicap and
they shot over three runs before they
were stopped.
Faithful Tex Covington opened the
final round with a triple and Rehg
singled him home. Zwilling came
through with a safety, putting Walter
on second. Schneider flied TO MSgee,
Rehg going to third. Then Cavet. who
had relieved Petty and had taken Smiths
place in the batting order delivered with
single and Rehg scamPered home. With
Zwilling on second and Cayet on hrst,
Henline shot a safety to left, scoring
Butch on first Wolf. who had singled
in the eighth when he had batted for
Petty. struck out and SINNERS ended 1t
BIZ forcing Henline.
1t was a tremendous rally and gave the
fans something to shout over even If it
did fall short of victory.
Duke Kelley was out Of action yester-
DIV due to sickness and an injured finger.
The Duke says be has been losing weight
and is in need of repairs.
Catcher Dick Gossett is back after a
frif7 home TO recover from a breakdown
received on the western trip.
Louie Wolf would have given his pay
check for a hit in the ninth of the second
battle Tuesday. but Mulrennan fooled him
with an underhand curve.
The Tribe got seven hits in the second
game and five came in the last inning.
