be a different story"
Higgins praised the Cardinals and
the masterful pitching of Jesse
Haines.
It's the old story, but I've got to
say it-we're not hitting" Higgins
declared. We've only made 15 hits
in three games. Hits make lot of

in hitting for a long time, but We
are going to get started tomorrow.
We have faced three of the best
pitchers on the st. Louis staff. We
are bound to hit better from now on.
The Cardinal staff can not hold up
the standard of pitching set by Alex
ander, Sherdel and Haines."
Higgins offered no criticism of
Koenigs wild throw in the fourth in
ming that started the scoring. He
merely regarded it as one of the
breaks in the game declaring that
the ball was slippery and wet and
that Koenig apparently got a poor
grip on it.
