Former Georgetown Baseball

A former Georgetown baseball

studied and 1t Is on that account that
now, before the games cost anything
either way, he is taking q look at the
newcomer in actual play. The Tampa
star had no fielding chances in yes
terday's lone inning at Jacksonville,
and he came to bat but once.
DIRECTLY TO CENTER
The bases were jammed on his ap-
preaching the plate and the younsster
was facing Jimmy Ring. a worlds
series hero in 1919. Foss swung mis-
bat nobIy, driving a long fly to center
field that scored Rice from third base.
In all his movements Foss reminds
one Of an experienced player, when,
as a matter of fact, he has played
but two years.
Heavy clouds. piling up for several
hours, were gathering over the ball
park when time was called, but the
clubs thought they might at least get
in FIVE frames. They guessed badly,
however, for before the Grihmen
could be retired the rain began beat
ing upon the tin roof Of the grand
stand and driving the fans from the
open seats. At the close of the frame
play was halted, with the Griffs lead
ing, 2 to I.
Blackie ORourke handed the Phiis
run in the first frame when he
threw Neale's grounder over Judges
head, allowing Neale to reach
second. Rawlings bungled sacrifice
sent him to third. and long
fly from williams bat brought him in.
The Griffs grabbed two in their half,
in spite of a stiff shower that halted
things for a while.
FOss LOOKED RING OVER.
Ring threw out Judge. Milan
bounded a safety over wrightstone's s
head. Rice singled to left and Lewis
flIied the bases with a Texas Lacquer
in short right. A pass to Harris
forced in Milan. Foss took a look at
Rings delivery and then poled one to
Cy williams in right center, bringing
in Rice. O'Rourke raised a fly to
Meusel, the latter making the catch
in a heavy downpour. The rain beat
upon the roof of the stand as upon
a drum. Holes began shedding
streams upon the domes Of the de-
voted bugs. Whenever a poor fish
happened to be the target found by
a new stream from above all the
others roared with glee. 1t was
constant uproar. too, for there was
much rain and many holes.
NICK BROKE BAD NEWS.
Finally, with the clay base paths
merely red slime surrounded by little
ponds, a lull in the rain came and out
strobe Uncle Nick Altrock to make
the official announcement that the
game was off. The fans were given
tickets good for any league game
later in the season, but by that time
the Griffs will be far away from
Florida, as they are today for thai
matter.
All in all that trip to Jacksonville
didn't amount to much, save that il
gave the Griffs their fourth victory
over the Phillies in five games played
this spring and served to whet theil
appettes for whatever the Giants
have to offer next week.
