Bsars Out Predictions
Early in the year 1t was predicted
At Harris had the makings Of one OF
~ hest hurlers in either league and
~ nrediction Is borne out by his work
~ late It is no easy matter for
r,trber TO hang up a string of con-
.recntiye victories with tail-end club,
Int Harris has performed the unusual
fsat. He was fortunate yesterday, as
h;s teammates batted out victory In
the ninth inning after he had been re-
ijeyed by a pinch hitter.
Handsome Eddie Rommel went to
,he most and retired the Tigers In the
lat frame without any damage to his
delivery. The win yesterday was the
Srst in the last five for the Athletics. A
Wild toss by Pep Young, of the Tigers,
4 former Central Manual Training
scbool star Of this locality, gave the
As the win.
They entered the ninth one run to
tbe bad, but opportune hitting after
Youpg's failure to make double play
made il easy for the Mackmen. BRAZIL,
nincb hitting for Harris, delivertd a
sinrle that sent one counter over, and
then Witt drove home Galloway. With
Emhke holding the ball BRAZIL and Witt
worked the double steal, the former
scoring.
