San Antonio light. [volume] (San Antonio, Tex.) 1911-1993, 1925-08-05

Terror" six feet three, 70
Dempsey and the erstwhile
-shut-out king of the Texas
Association, with a record of
27 scoreless innings inter-
rupted only by his departure from
Terrell for San Antonio.
Bob Coleman decided Wednesday
morning to see how many more score
less innings Tiny" can add onto that
record while occupying the mound
against the Shreveport Sports in the
second game of the series here.
The Shreveport series starter was
placed alongside that 4-3 Fort Werth
game of Monday in the trophy col
lection.
As in Mondays game, the enemy
was permitted to get off to a gallop-
ing start. only TO be overtaken and
trampled under foot in the grand late
inning rush.
Harold Mccall allowed the Bears
three hits. no two in the same inning.
during the first six frames. Mean
while, his mates amassed three runs
and many hits off Hap Collard.
In the seventh, Mccall forgot the
formula.
When the Bear bats had been cooled
off in the water barrel, four runs were
on the scoreboard in the home column.
No counters developed thereafter and
the game was won, As.
An error By ShortstOp Benton. who
threw the ball away after making a
nifty stop of NasOn's knock. was an
invitation TO get busy that the Bears
couldn't turn down in the seventh.
Mccall had begun to wObblc n bit in
the inning before. When Danny Clark
ricOcheted a triple off the right field
fence following Benton's jungle chunk
in the seventh. it was evident Harold's
usefulness for the day was over.
PASS FOR ROSEY.
Roscnthal camped patiently at the
plate and got four straight balls,
Manager Coleman played bunch
and put in Booze TO bat for Wash
burn.
Now this Booze boy has been vio-
lating the law Of averages with a
string of pinch hits that extend into
the dim past. Had he popped out,
nobody would have blamed him,
though disappointment, of course,
would have bowed down the faithful.
But Booze didn't pop out. He
curved a difficult fly between the left
and center fielders, neither got hands
on it. and in came Clark. Rosenthal
spiked it TO third and Booze, stretched
his hit into a double.
Wirts interrupted the bombardment
by tanning. but Kahdot. the Potta-
watomie PapOose, exercising Indian
patience, gottum heap big base Oil
balls.
Up comes Bad Bill Warwick, in the
role Of pinch-hitter for Pitcher Col
lard. Bad Bill is an unceremOniOus
cuss. He smashed the first pitch on
a line 10 center. and ROsenthal and
Booze came stepping down the third
base path like a vaudeville dance team,
with the tying and winning runs.
The next two went out but it didn't
matter.

ninth when, with Adkins. pinch-run-

the ball quickly, however. and whip

and ending the game.
Shreveport got hits in every inning
and gathered - in ALI More than
half Of these were slapped out after
C0llard or his successor. Watt. had
two strikes on the batter and less
than two balls.
Wisterzil and Schick each singled in
the second after getting two strikes
and their blows pushed around a run
after two down.
A double by Benton drove in the
other two Sport tallies in the fifth.
coming after hits by Stansbury and
Ostergard.
KAHD0T BUSY BOY.
There was some classy fielding.
KahdOt had a big afternoon at short
with ten chances, seven of them as
sists. Meyers saved the game in the
seventh with one Of his best running
catches of a liner by Benton with a
man on third and TWO out. Bono
