To Wallace Warmoth belongs much
or the credit of yesterdays victory.
despite his withdrawal in favor of
Walter Johnson. after two men were
out in the tenth inning, and the eff
fectiveness of one of his left handlers
against the White Sox has about
made Bush decide to send another one

Warmoth at times was disposed to be
wild. but he came through in pinches
and to all appearances did nothing in
that tenth inning to warrant his re-
placement by Johnson. He was
nlcked for twelve safeties by the
White Sox. all of them singles. and
permitted a worthwhile punching of
hitS only In single session.
Get to Thruston in Tenth.
Hollis Thruston, right-hander,
who came to the White Sox from the
st. Louis club, by way of Salt Lake
city, did some good hurting. too. but
the orthodox finger found the going
rough in three innings. He pitched
great ball through nine innings. but
was Smacked by George Fisher and
Goose 'Goslin in the tenth and gave
up the ghost when Joey Evans fol-
lowed with a sacrifice fly to Johnnie
Mostil in center field.
The Nationals broke into the scor-
ing column first. as has been their
wont upon this western tour. The in
itial tally came in the second inning
Evans was thrown out by Mcclellan
hut Ruel walked. Peck raped to Nc
C1enan on hit-andrun play. and
Ruel beat the White SoX shortstop's
toss to Collins at second base. Eddie
took a chance and threw to Shelly
to head off Peck. but Umpire Owens
called the National safe at first.

Another marker was scored in the
fourth inning. Evans opened with a
hot single to center. RueIs double to
advance. as Peck hunted and was
thrown out, Thurston to Sheely. Con.
roy famed after sending a long foul
into the left-field bleachers. and War
moth was easy. Collins to Shelly.
The Sox tied the score in their halt
of the fourth. Sheely singled to right
but was touched out on the line by
Harris when Mostil tapped toward
second. Mostil. however. reached the
middle station when Harris tossed
wildly toward Conroy in an effort to
complete a double play. Kamm was
walked and he and Mostil moved for
ward a base when Fish was thrown
out by Peckinpaugh. Schalk's single
TO center scored Mostil and Fish. and
Thurston strolled. Hooper. though,
was retired by Harris toss.
The Nationals put over their win
ming tally in the tenth. Fisher open
ed with a slashing double to left
center. Goslin followed with long
drive to the middle pasture. 1t seemed
that MoStil might catch the ball.
Fisher played safe and when Mostil
missed the catch was able to make
only third. while Goslin easily reached
second. Evans blow to Mostil enabled
Fisher to score the winning tally,
after the White Sox center, fielder had
gathered in the ball.
