knuckle- ball expert, support In keep

score was 3 to | and Lefty Grove,
Connie Mack's lefthanded ace. was
the victim, although the defeat was
not entirely the fault of the tall
southpaw.

Grove held the Cardinals to five
hits, only M more than the total al
lowed by Big Jesse, but all the safe
ties were scored in two innings, two
in the third and three in the fourth,

win most games. He was nicked for
three hits and one run in the first
inning, but after that he yielded only
