Hendryx Stars Again. 4
The damaging hand of Hendryx
was again up stage in the fatali-
ties of the afternoon. In the
hunchfui eighth once more, just as
Washington was brushing its feet
on the only welcome of the day, the
reliable Tim again stood OF the
counter attack and drove the Ma
tionals back into their trenches.
The good old eighth-inning rally
is just getting in style out Florida
avenue way. but this aristocratl from
the Hub Is always reminding some
body Of their overall days. He nabs
the towering lift that would make
beautiful the morning after read
ing. and causes TO come the tears
that should be hidden by smiles.
Rally I'm Eighth.
This eighth inning invitation was
the only chance Washington had of
enjoying the festivities. The Ma
tionals had been : consistent for
seven straight goose eggs, when
Charity, first up. walloped Hoyts
opening ball for two bases. Hoyt
answered this with a slight vaver,
granting Schacht, who entered the
mess in the fifth, a walk. with two
on, Judge sent out a beautiful
shouldhave-been triple, which Hen
dryN saved from marring the mural
hanginEs. This was the first out.

happened gave Hoyt another shiv-
er, for he walked Milan. Rice went
out on a fly to Scott. Hoyt still
worked under a strain, and with
two men already on base, with his
own permission, Hoyt chalked the
board by passing Roth and forcing
4 run. Shannon ripped one out to
left that scored two more for the
Nationals. Roth and Shannon were
stranded when Jimmy O'Neill
struck out.
Hoyt's Bad Inning.
The 1000 bugs who yelled for
blood ratified with Joy at Hoyt's bad
inning. but the Boston pitcher had
the game to his order in the ninth
when the stands looked for another
crash Harris sent out a single
and supper was forgotten But it
was soon remembered when Char
rity popped to McNally. who caught
Harris crawling back to first. This
was the fifth double of the after
noon. and when a crowd of visitors
tosses in a double in the last hope
ful inning-ask any jury what the
verdict is
CalyO. the Cuban. was sent up for
Schacht-his first appearance at bat
since the days of Is, when Griff
first imported him. He sent out
beautiful fly into the hands of Hen
dryx. and Hendryx tried to hurry
the finish and muffed. Judge ended
it with a shot to Eibel.
Rice's Great Catch.
sam Rice did his best to keep the
enemy's figures this side of a mil
lion in the second when he robbed
Walters of a cleanup drive. Shaw
had let in Foster and Scott with
walks after McInnis' hit, and Wal
ters' slam would have sent them
romping home. Rice was also re-
sponsible for Boston's zero third
inning. Harry Hooper had driven
a double to right center and tripped
over to third on McNally's sacrifice.
Eibel sent out a Rice-bound flyer,
which Sam scooped and hurried
back to Charity. hooking Hooper.
Rear Admiral Grayson was pres
cnt but failed to issue any state
ment when the operation was over.
Undoubtedly he would have re-
ported that the Griffs were very
sick men last night but will re-
cover and will return the Boston
treaty to Ambassador Barrows to-
day for certain amendments and a
complete revision of the enemy's
