straight victories and going strong.
In accomplishing this, Babe Adams
allowed the Cincinnati Reds four
widely scattered hits before a packed
house to-day and splashed a pail of
whitcwash over them, 6 to 0.
The Pirates not only walloped the
Redlegs, but drove their best pitcher
Eppa Jeptha Rixey-from the box
with fusillade of slams in the seventh
inning. Eppa, up to that time, had
managed to keep the plate immacu-
late.
Bill McKechnies lads played with
the same fierce determination that has
characterized their last dozen games.
Rixey had lot of stuff, fine control,
and looked like a million dollars"
early in the fracas, but he weakened
in the seventh, and it was all over in
twinkling.
Babe" Adams, said to be cold
wea ther pitcher. had the visitors COM
pletely under his thumb. He was just
as effective Saturday as was Cooper
Friday. Only one Red reached third

issue a base on balls.
Record for Season.
BY taking this game and making 1t
thirteen consecutive victories the Buccos
established the record for the season in

Indians a short time ago. with an even
dozen games won before they were
finally tripped by the washington SEN
ators.

to cheer their ball team and to offer

he and his players deserved. 1t was
a notable gathering and the Corsair
crew rewarded their friendly rooters by
trouncing the visitors. thereby taking
the short series just closed rather easily.
ingly short period OF hour and %
minutes. Only thirty-one batters faced
tie veteran Adams. That was the kind
or ball he was pitching. The old game
did not really start until the Pirates
came to bat in the seventh inning, where
everybody went to bat, Rabbit Maran-
vile and Clyde Barnhart driving in two
runs each and Tierney the other.
For five innings the only Redleg to
scrape up an acquaintance with first
base was Jake Daubert In the opener
He singled through the box. In the
visitors sixth George Burns was up to
his old tricks and crashed TO the fence
for three bagger. the only extra base
wGllop off Adams. Two were out at the
time. however, and there was deep
rooted groan from the Reds bench
when Daubert poked up a high fly to
Traynor for the final out.
The Buccos salted away the game in
the seventh by the most approved
method. clean hitting. There was no
fluke attached to the scoring of their
FIVE runs.
