Never during the game did the Ma
tlonals spirit flag but they were posi-
lively unable to take advantage of any
scoring situations offered outside of the
sixth session. They had a great chance
to do something worth while in their
final turn at bat but a slip-up on the
part of Roger Peckinpaugh, who was
on second when Schange turned a poor
play in, proved costly
Wally evidently calculated that hit
and-run play was on and he made
wild heave to Joe Dugan that gave
Peck a great chance to get to third
base and in good scoring position, but
the veteran was looking the other way
when the throw occurred and clung to
the middle station. He thereby passed
up the last chance the Bucks had to
better themselves.
Grins Tame at Start.
The Nationals went out in order in
the first session, but the Yanks got
runner on. Witt walked, but got no
farther than second, for heNnext three
batters were easy outs.

worried in the second round. Goslin
began the inning with two-base
blow to left field. and Judge strolled.
Bluege, though. rolled to Dugan, forcing
out Goose, while Dugan threw out
Ruel Peck walked, filling the bases,
but Ogden grounded to Pipp.
New York could not do a thing in
Its portion of the inning, but in the
third each club got a single. Harris
sent a blow to left with one down,
and was stranded at first as Rice and
Goslin could not drive the ball safely.
Scott opened the Yanks' third with
one-base knock, and Hoyt sacrificed.
Witt. however. flied to Rice and Dugan
lifted to Goslin.

in the Nationals fourth when Bluege
raped into a double play, Scott to
Ward to Pipp, and Ruel lofted to
Meusel
The Yanks managed to get a tally
in their part of the frame. Ruth was
safe at first when Bluege made a
wild throw % Judge after grabbing
the Bambino's grounder. Pipp sac

In the fifth the Nationals went out
in order, but. the Yankees got Hoyt
on base by virtue of a pass after
two were out. Witt, though, was re-
tired, Harris to Judge.
