Fon some reason or other Man
ager Johnson's men lacked the
complete requisites yesterday to
win, which was quite in reverse Of
their play of July Fourth when
they went out and battled their
heads off while taking" the New
York Yankees twice in two games.
The old familiar reasons Of mo
hitting in the pincheS, and just
fair pitching" can be given here,
for it truly was q lack Of these
things which spelled failure for
Manager Johnson's gang.
But the Griffs, it seems are
this sort Of team this year. One
day they'll look like q million dol
lars, the next like cellar cham
pions. It's all very mysterious.
Old Batting Order
Before yesterdays con tests
Manager Johnson brought his
former starting batting order into
play. That is, with the exception
of Dave Harris. who was filling
in for Carl Reynolds.
AS generally known it had
Myer leading off, Manush, Sec
ond; West, third; Cronin, fourth;
Harris, fifth: Bluege, sixth;
Jadge,xseventh, and then the
pitcher and catcher.
The change wasn't much Of q
success as the two games bring
out. However, a great part Of
the failure might be laid to the
complete effectiveness Of the two
Cleveland hurlers who worked
against Manager Johnson's men.
In the first game, for an
example, Jack Russell was very
good, in fact so good, that "our
Griffmen" could gather but seven
hits-all scattered with the excep-
tion of the sixth when two runs
were scored. In the second the
same sort Of situation prevailed
although more than seven hits
were collected off Mel Harder,
Manager Peckinpaugh's hurler.
So it narrows down the GriffS
must get better hitting in the
pinches. and just a little better
pitching in order that the opposi-
ton may be held at bay. if they
are to make a commendable
showing during this home stand.
OF course yesterdays two con-
tests against the Indians can't be
put down as the brand of ball
to be expected every day from
now on. Maybe Manager John
sons men will snap out Of it to-
day. tomorrow. or before the
Indians leave town, as three more
games are still on schedule.
The Future?
At any rate, whatever they do
in a winning way will be en-.
couraging, as it will strengthen
the nope that a paSable showing
will be made against the three
other Western clubs to follow the
Indians here, namely. the Chicago
White Sox. st. Louis Browns and
Detroit Tigers in that order.
Briefly the Indians defeated
Tommy Thomas and General
Alvin Crowder in the double
header yesterday to 2 and 4 to 8.
In both instances, Manager John
sons hurlers were pasSable and
