Sheehan Doubles

Sheehan Doubles
The K. G. runs were registered in
the third on a single by Peters.
Sheehan's double, Knothe's infleld
out and Kuhel's one-base poke. And
that was all for either team, but
threats came often in other innings
to keep the fans clinging to their
seats. On four occasions the In
dians were in scoring position only
to see Sheehan tighten and as for
the Blues they got one or more run
ners on in the fifth, sixth, seventh,
eighth and ninth.
Going into the ninth with a single
run lead, CVengros disposed of
Grigsby and Smith and had two
strikes on Michaels when the K. G.
third sacker singled. MichaelS kept
drawing throws to first ana Gwen
gros kept pegging there to keep him
close, for Big John Peters, already
the author of two hits, was at the
plate. 1t was a tense spot.
Dramatic Moment
And to make the situation more
dramatic a balk was called on
Cvengros and Michaels went to Sec
ond. This caused an exciting argu-
ment, but not a thing could be done
about it, and there was Mictaels
on the scoring bag. The Blues
whooped 'er up on the sidelines try
ing to upset Cyengros, but he re-
fused to crack and caused Peters to
bounce to Freigau, who tossed to
Monahan for the final out.
The crowd surged on the field
and the Indians came in for wild
acclaim as they gleefully worked
their way to the clubhouse. There
were not many in that crowd who
thought the Indians could take"
the battling Tom Sheehan, the
lead-off finger of the American
Association champions.

PHILADELPHIA, April l6.-It's
Il always good to get that first
game of the season over with.
Somehow, when that first one is out
of the way, a fellow sort of feels
as though he can settle down to the
grind of playing baseball. The first
game is always more of a show than
it is a ball game.
The first games run Just about
true to form. Washington figured
to win from Boston; Detroit, on

to have something on st. Louis. AS

held the amateur light heavyweight
title in 1924. His most recent scrap
was a ten-round triumph over Jim

Since adopting Indianapolis as his
headquarters, Pickerd has engaged
in five scraps, stopping four oppon-

ten rounds.
There will be a supporting card of
five scraps Thursday, the first start

the lineup, things wouldn't look half
so rosy for the Athletics.
I'm sorry I didn't start of the
season with any homers Tuesday,
I thought sure I had one in the
third when I hit a long drive that
hit the loud speaker horns which
stick up about twenty feet above
the right field wall. But the UNI
pires said nj and umpires are the
final judges.
Anyhow. there's n record goes
to my credit. I guess I'm the first
fellow in baseball history ever to
have a home run "radioed" into a
two-base hit.
