PEARSON BEATS
GR|FFS;MAY
COMEHERE

Mr.. Uncle Clark Griffith, foxy
prexy of the Griffmen, fidgeted
and fumed, lit and relit his big,
black cigar and otherwise was a
most uncomfortable person YES
terday out at the ball park while
his Griffmen lost a 3-to-1 decision
to the Cleveland Indians in the
third game of the current series.
The reason for his sorrow was
because a young fellow by the
name Of Monte Pearson was on
the mound for the Indians. Now
just the mere idea that Pearson
was on the mound shouldn't have
put Griff on edge.
But because Pearson set the
GriffS down almost as fast as
they could come to bat gave Mr..
Griffith plenty to be uncomfort-
able about as the feat marked
the third time this season that
the young Cleveland right-hander
has done such a thing.
May Buy Pearson
Griff will probably go after
this new sensation this winter
when trading will be the topic
Of the moment again. 1t will
be remembered the prexy cor
rallied all Of the pitchers that
formerly proved poison" to his
club during last winters trad
ing period, his transactions in
Guiding the grabbing of Walter
Stewart, formerly of the st.
Louis Browns, and Earl White
hill, and Jack Russell, formerly
of the Cleveland Indians.
Now it seems, he only has to
get Pearson to make his efforts
complete, or at least to safe
guard the Griffs' chances Of
going places again in 1884.
But getting back to the game.
Pearson pitched splendid ball
yesterday and would have scored
a shutout victory had not Bill
CiSsell bobbled a grounder off
Buddy Myers bat in the fifth.
This miscue paved the way for
a Griff run a little later on in
the frame as Heine Manush
came through with a single
which scored Crowder from Sec
ond base.
Gives Four Hits
Pearson granted the Griffs four
hits all told. Manush grabbed
two while Sewell and Pinch Hit
ter Cliff Bolton gathered the
only others of the day.
General Alvin CroWder was the
Griff hurler. He pitched a game
that would have been won nine
times out of ten had he re-
ceived any backing at bat from
his mates. At it was he lost
and the setback marked his
eleventh defeat of the campaign.
Crowder, before the contest.
hoped to grab his tWenty-third
triumph Of the season.
One of the Indians runs came
as a result of a homer off the
bat of Odell Hale in the second
inning. Wesley Ferrell drove
across the other two when he
singled in the seventh with
Averil and Trosky on base. Both
had gotten on by singles to open
the frame and had moved up q
base each on Cronin's error.

Dodgers Pitcher
Is Burgomaster
on Off-HOurS

Owen Carroll, Bro klyn
pitcher who started out like a
whirlWind at the beginning Of
the season but Gained down to
a losing stride with the rest Of
the Dodgers, is a burgomaster
in his off hours.
Ownie financed his brother in
the saloon business and the
Dodger Tavern is a popular rem
devious for all the baseball
minded of Newark. Days that
OWnie's name appears in the
winning column is big day for
the bar flies who get a free
drink every other round.

develop Tor JOBS as cleveland
Today, this farm has done a
great deal toward supplying the
Indians with collection of play
ers. In the Johnson teams line
up daily are men who have spent
seasons at Toledo before jumping
into Cleveland uniforms.
Yesterday, as a distinct exam
pie, the Indians had five former
Toledo performers in their regu-
lar lineup. Hal Trosky, recently
purchased first sacker. was on
first; Bill Knickerbocker, star of
last years Toledo club, was at
short; Odell Hale, 1882 third base
man, was on third; Frank Pytlak,
scrappy little catcher, was behind
the bat, while Monte Pearson, pur.
chased only last July, was on the
mound.
Others On Bench
And not to be outdone, the In
dians had several other Toledo
players on the bench ready to be
called upon if Manager Walter
Johnson so desired. They were
Sarge Conally, rubber arm"
pitcher, purchased several years
ago from the Mud Hens: Belve
Bean, another hurler, and Thorn
ton Lee, still another pitcher
purchased only a day or so ago,
along with Hal Trosky, the first
baseman.
So it would seem the Toledo
farm has been doing right we'll
by the Indians for the past two
or three seasons and if events
keep up, Manager johnson and
his associates, including Billy
Evans and Alva Bradley, are Ii
able to gather together a cham
pionship team one of these fine
days. It could happen.
Porter was asleep at the switch,
or somethin', in the Indians first
as he kept standing at the plate
after Crowder had issued him
pass. It took Manager johnson,
Coach Pat Charity and Umpire
George Moriarty to tell him that
he could take first base if he
only would trot down there. He
did.
The Griffs had a swell scoring
chance presented them in their
end Of the frame when Cissell
fumbled Goslin's grounder and
Manush walked. But Pearson re-
tired the side by getting Cronin
on a foul to Pytlak and Schultz
on a force play.
Hale Becomes Father
Odell Hale, poppy little in
fielder Of the Indians, received
word from "home" just before
the game that he had just be-
come father of a seven-pound
baby girl. He therefore celebrated
this news by socking out a home
run on his first trip to the plate
in the second inning.
The Griffs finally got to Pear
son for a run in the fifth when
Manush singled Crowder across
during a rally which had its mo-
ments. SeWell opened the frame
with single, but was forced at
second on his attempted sacrifice,
Pytlak to Knickerbocker. Cissell,
however, gave the Griffs a new
life by fumbling Myers grounder
and two men were on base. Cos
lin popped to Knickerbocker next,
but Manush came through with
the needed hit when he singled to
center scoring Crowder. This tied
the count at the time, 1 to l.
It was pretty pitching duel
between Crowder and Pearson
when all is said and done. Both
hurlers took caution whenever
scoring chances appeared against
them. Pearson, for example, passed
Sewell purposely in the sixth with
Kuhel on base in order to retire
Crowder for the third out. His
strategy worked here as Crowder
forced Sewell for the third out.
