By HENRY VANCE

The unwritten law of averages was against Philip Morrison Tues day afternoon. Philip went in for try at his eighth straight victory, but the lowly Lookouts dashed his fond hopes to the ground. He was enjoying S-2 lead at the start of the ninth, but the balloon ascension, after being minus quantity for three days. happened along, and Phil went up as high as a Broad way skirt. He checked out on his stuff. and by pummeling his deliv- cry for four safe wallops and base on balls in the ninth the Lookouts scored quartet of tallies. making the count 6-3. They might have been tallying yet, but for a bit of Kindness on the part of Bill Brennan who called Kress out for Clayton's interference with Brandon, as he attempted to make a peg.
 After this ninth inning shock, which Is no longer being looked upon as a shock, but as a matter of course instead, the Barons came in and started rally. They scored one and had three men on the sacks with only one down. A single would have meant tied ball game. But Johnny Kane sent in in the pinch failed to hit at the offerings and Stuffy Stewart also whiffed for the retirement of the side and the end of the game.
 Drake Follows Shit
 It was Just another one of those cases where disnherited ball player turns and smites his former home folks square on the jaw and knocks 'em for something in the nature of a goal. Logan Drake, who failed to make good with the Bar ons this summer, and whom Chat tanooga gobbled up via the waiver route, was sent to the mound by Manager Mcdonald. Drake pitched a good ball game all the way through but 1t was In the ninth that he pitched his heart out and was rewarded with the laurel wreath of victory
 Drake did the prettiest. the headi- est and the most courageous bit of pitching that has been seen at Rick wood Field this year in the ninth inning. He had every chance in the world to blow up but he refused to blow. His mates went back on him, his control went back on him mo- mentarily, and the breaks of the game deserted him but he pitched like an old-timer instead of a young rookie. After a couple of errors and an infield hit had scored a run. and after a base on balls and hit bat ter had placed three men on enough to shatter the nerve of any pitcher in the world, the former Baron pitched to Johnny Kane, who was sent up in the pinch, and put SO. much stuff on the ball that John ny. was completely fooled and failed to offer at the last two strikes. It was the same way with Stuffy Stew art The Baron keystoner was and he, too, was a strikeout victim.
 Barons Score
 Moley's men scored the first tally in.the second inning. when with two down Silva singled. stole second, W ent to third when the catcher threw the ball away and came home when the centerfielder fumbled, in trying to stop the catcher's wild peg. It was a gift run pure and simple, but the wonderful base-running of Silva helped shove 1t across Doc was running wild all through the game, stealing four bases during the afternoon, and getting three hits out or four times up. He hit four out of four Monday, and this gives him seven hits out of the last eight times at bat.
 In the first of the fourth the Look outs tied 1t up for brief time. Irish
