1t ended Tiger rally that threate
tionals' reach.
Sharing the spotlight with Goslin
who really fielded as he is capable OF
fielding, was Jezebel Tecumseh Zach
ary, southpaw slabman, who has not
enjoyed much success this season
Zach startled himself as well as the
small lot of fans in the stands by loop
ing the ball over the right-field wall in
the second session for a round-trApper
1t crossed within foot Of the foul
mark and it's luster was dimned a
trifie by Goslin's prodigious smash that
followed, but it counted just as much
as that wallop by the Goose.
Zach Checks Tigers.
But Zach's greatest work was done
on the hill. Wild as the proverbial
March hare in the first frame, he was
saved from severe damage by a two
ply killing after he had passed two
batters. In the second session, when
he yielded four singles and a pass and
had an error made behind him, II
seemed his term of service would be
brief
That Tiger furry tied the score, but
thereafter until the eighth inning only
one Tiger saw first base. That was
John Bassler, who strolled to that sack
after one was out in the seventh. BOZ
Jones, sent in to run for the sluggish
catcher, never left the base.
Hits numbers five and six were regis
tered against Zach In the eighth for
the visitors third and last marker
Wingo's two-bagger came after a man
had been retired. Zach threw out Bot
Fothergill without letting Wingo leave
the middle station, but Harry He'll
mann singled to right and Red scored
Lu Blue popped to Roger Peckinpaugh
to end the eighth, and in the ninth
Pinch Batters Ty Cobb and Johnny
Neun. as we'll as Larry Woodall, were
, baff1ed by the red-thatched North Caro-
linian.
The Nationals did not get any star.
tling amount of hits off the two Tiger
hurlers employed, but they made al
except one of their seven bingles
count. George Dauss, curving right
handler, started on the mound by Cobb
was found for three successive singles
in the two-run second inning and a
brace of homers in the third. Zach &
single off Dauss in the fifth was
wasted.
Doyle Found for Run.
Dauss gave way.to a pinch batter in
the seventh session and Jesse Doyle
finished the pitching for the Cobbmen
After Sam Rice dragged a single past
Doyle in the eighth the hurler devel-
oped a streak of wildness and prac-
tically handed :he Nationals their final
tally.
Doyle We, fortunate in not having
more than one run made against him.
The Champs had the bases filed, with
two out, in the eighth, when Ossie
Bluege sent a terrific drive to right
nl rNlo ~, o~I
for the right-hand hitter, raced across
to his regular territory and made a
brilliant one-hand catch of the liner
that seemed on it's way to a two-bagger
at least
The Tigers were patient in the first
inning, and waited for Zach to show
his goods. Fred Haney, first up, was
successful in drawing a pass, and
was advanced a notch by Blackie
O'Rourke's sacrifice. Wingo also
watched Zach fling the sphere and
walked to first. When Fothergill rified
liner toward left, both runners
dashed from their sacks, but Peck
speared the drive and tossed to Bucky
Harris to double Haney off second.
In the second round, however, the
Tigers slammed their way to a pair
Of tallies. Heilmann opened the at
tack by bounding a single past Joe
Judge. Blue hit to center and He'll
mann stopped at second. but when
Rice fooled the roller, Harry broke
for third base. The outfielder made
a poor throw to Bluege that let He'll
mann reach the far corner safely and
Blue make second. Bucky Harris
knocked down Jack Tavener's sizzler.
but it was good for a single that tai
lied Heilmann and put Blue at third.
Tx,-o,., Ctov,& yU,I
These hits left Zach wobbly and he
passed Bassler to fill the sacks. Dauss
took healthy swing for a third strike
scoring Blue. Only a quick return
of the ball from right field by Moon
Harris prevented Tavener from fol.
lowing Blue to the plate. c. ,ke's
loft to Rice was so short that Tave-
ner did not dare to break for home
after the catch. Then .Goslin made
his f1ashy catch of Wingo's twisting
liner.
In their portion of the round, the
Nationals knotted the score pronto
Judge singled to center and pulled up
at second base when Moon Harris
lined a one-baser over Tavener
Bluege shot a single past Haney to
count Judge and put Moon at third
Peck's saorif1cial tap scored Moon
Harris and moved Bluege to the mid
die station. In a hit-and-run play
Ruel lined to Wingo and the latter s
throw to Tavener easily doubled Os
sic off second base.
Zach opened the third with his
homer and Goslin got his four-baser
after Rice and Bucky Harris had beer
retired. Thereafter all was quiet un
til the eighth inning, when Wingo
doubled and scored as Heilmanr
singled.
Last Tally Cheap"
That marker was offset by the
Nationals in their last turn at bat
With Zach out of the way, Rice
bunted past Doyle for single. Doyle
hit Bucky Harris on the elbow and
when the pitcher tried to trap the
pilot off first, Blue muffed the throw
That let Rice take third base and
Bucky return to first safely.
Goslin famed. but Judges stroll
crammed the cushions, and when Doyle
plugged Moon Harris in the shoulder
the Champs got a cheap run. He'll
mann stopped the scoring for the day
with his great catch of Bluege's
drive.
