Notes of the Game

Thirty-one, players. twenty-nine
hits and nineteen runs made it quite
a baseball game.
Judge had a field day, with three
hits and as many walks in six trips
to the plate. He also scored half
CT the local runs. duplicating the
feat of Eddie Collins for the day.
Sam Rice seems to have found his
batting eye again, one of his four
hits being a double. He used his
bat in the pinches. driving two
teammates across the plate.
Zachary is Griffith's overnight
choice to face the Sox today in ef-
fort to halt them in their mad
career. He will probably be opposed
by Williams or Cicotte.
The Griffmen had the basessfilled
with one out in the fifth. but Col
Inns and Weaver engineered a fast
double play which pulled Wilkinson
cut of the hole.
Fast fielding robbed Murphy of
an extra base hit in the sixth, when
Roth took mis- low drive with one
hand, on the run.
+ q. Gleason switched right fielders as
fast as Griffith changed his pitchers.
Murphy started, but was replaced by
Shane Collins when Courtney was
pitching. Then Liebold, another
lefthanded hitter, was sent in to
face Shaw.

Shannon in. Rice singled In timely
fashion, scoring Judge, but Harris

Neither team could count again
until the eighth, when both made
two runs, forcing the decision into
extra innings. Courtney walked J..
Collins. the first man to- face him
in this inning. and Eddie Collins
picked one against the fence, scor-
ing the right fielder. Jackson's
bounder over Judges head scored
the second sacker. Washington's
two runs were well earned. three
hits of Kerr turning the trick. John
son was injected as pinch hitter
for Courtney, but was called out on
strikes. Judge and Milan then sim
lgled in succession and advanced on
Rice's infield out, scoring on Roth's
clean single to left. Bobby was out
stealing.
Shaw got through the ninth in
ming without trouble, but saw the
game lost in the tenth. when the
Sox solved him in easy fashion.
Leibold. one of the three Chicago
right fielders during the day, walkr
ed and E. Collins singled. which was
unusual. as he was hitting them
for two sacks most of the time.
Weaver's double scored Leibold and
Collins and Jackson's drive over
first base for a brace of bags saw
Weaver count. Having gathered in
enough runs to cinch the contest,
the next three batters went out in
order.
Despite the three-run lead against
them. the Nationals went to work
in their half of the tenth as IL they
were determined, to cause another
tie. Picinich was delegated to bat
for Shaw and jackson went far
back for his deep drive. Judge then
walked, his third free pass during
the day. Milan skied to Jackson.
but Judge breezed in on Rices single
