! KANSAS CITY, Mo, April 10
| After winning another skirmish from
the Blues, Thursday, to 0, behind
the deceptive pitching of Carmen
Hill, Ownie Bush's Indians were to
make a third visit to Muehlebach
field this afternoon to engage in the
wind-up of the series. At six o'clock
this afternoon the Hoosiers win
board a rattler and depart for MIL
waukee, where the Brewers will be
met Saturday.
The Indians will be pressed for
time this afternoon in order to make
their train, and there may be a
time limit placed on today's contest.
Ned Niles was the Tribes probable
pitching selection this afternoon,
with Florence back of the plate
Manager Bush intimated this morn
ing that if the Blues used a south
paw hurler today he would with
draw Matthews and Russell from
the outfield and replace them with
Wyatt and Rehg. However, It was
thought Andy Messenger, a right
handler, would hurl for Kansas City.
The Indians looked very good on
| Thursday and the shutout scored by
Hill was deserved. He twirled a
slow, careful game, and was given
perfect support. Not a local run
ner reached third and only two
reached second. A steal put one
Blue on the halfway station and
passed ball helped the other that far.
Hill allowed seven scattered hits,
struck out four and walked one.
Russell Holke and Stephenson aid
ed Carmen by turning in brilliant
plays that dampened the confidence
Of the home boys.
Sticking poled three hits for the
Indians Thursday, one a two-bag-
ger Hank Schneider walloped out
clean triple, with two mates aboard,
In the fifth. Voter found a safe
spot twice. Hoike was the only Tribe
infielder who did not break into the
hit column.
Two bases were stolen by the In
dams and one by the home club.
Pick of the Blues singled, after
two down, in the ninth and was
forced by Shinault for the game-end-
ing out, Schneider to Sticking, on a
neat pickup by Schneider near sec
ond
Paid attendance Thursday was a
little more than 1,4oO The sun was
on the job, but the stands were cold.
A breeze chilled the fans.
Wild Matthews was robbed Of hits
twice, once by Philbin and again
by Pick.
Fill got a single and walked once.
Carmen is far from being an auto
matte out. If he figures a fast ball
is coming he takes a healthy cut.
Reb Russell had bad day at the
plate. though he walked twice. He
hit into a double play, struck out
once and hoisted an easy fly.
Stephenson hit safely twice and
met the ball hard on three other
efforts.
Brenom, first up for the Blues IN
the NINTH drove burning wallop at
Holke, but Holke stood his ground
and shared the ball on the first hop
and beat Branom to the bag.
Sticking stole third in the sixth
while Meme held the ball. Meme
went to the mound for the Blues
after MCGOWAN batted for Evans in
the fifth Evans and Meme are
right handlers.
Meme showed well, at that, allow
ing the Hoosiers only two hits In the
four innings he worked.
The Indians scored two markers
in third, one in the fourth and two
in the fifth. They had nine men
left on base and the Blues eight.
Ho1ke was caught fatfooted in
the ninth and was retired without
an argument, Meme to Branom.
Pep Florence turned in O splendid
game behind the bat for the Bush
men.
