Add Insult to Injury by Show
ing in Rockies in Final
innings.

NEW YORK, July 3.-The crown
Ing insult in tho majors, pulling
ont regulars and sending in, raw
substitutes, was witnessed at the
Yankee Stadium in the first game
between the champions and the
banged and battered Washington
Griffmen. DOME Bush, the fiery
leader Of the visitors, glared in
vain. He was helpless. He had to
take 1t, just as his team took a
13.to-1 licking.
Zachary, seldom effective against
the Yanks, was knocked off the
slab in the first inning. He had
nothing but a glove and a loose
pitching motion. Friday, a rookie
from the lowest bushes. followed
and was terribly walloped until he
faded from the scenery in the fifth.
The Yanks scored nine runs in
the first three innings and many
fans left the park after seeing Babe
Ruth get his fifteenth home run.
It was a tremendous drive, high up
among the empty seats in the
right field bleachers.
The Yanks collected nineteen hits
for a total Of thirty bases, while
Bob Shawkey was toying with the
Southerners. Rice and Goslin were
the only Griffs to make good
against his slants. the former get
ting three hits and the latter two.

In the above record Wade played
third base the day he had five put.
outs and four assists without an
error, showing his versatility.
President Griffith expects to
watch the Nashville club as soon as
Richbourg rejoins 1t, having an
option upon his services, If Wade
can continue to PUNK the pill for
.343 the Nashville club may yell
about loosing him, provided Rich.
borough is taken by the Griffmen.
The wretched showing made by
the Griffs yesterday in New York
only goes TO prove their lack of
class when stacked up against the
league champions. Zachary is sell
dom effective against the Yankees,
hut the entire pitching staff lacks
the caliber necessary to stop the
heavy hitters with the New York
club.
George Mogridge may be fortu-
nate enough to win a game in New
York during the present series, but
no other man on the staff offers a
good bet. The Griffmen are out.
classed when opposing the Yankees,
just as they looked good against the
tailend Red Sox during the last
series here.
