Eight Games i'm Van of Yanks;

more as 1t drove Burke from the hill
in the fourth. Four singles of McColl
in the sixth we're good for the last
Cleveland scoring. Then Ed Chapman
stepped to the hill to hurl two snappy
rounds.
Until the Nationals got those
two clean-cut hits in the ninth,
1t looked as though Pearson might
be shooed into a no-hit affair
with Cronin and Hale the goats
bearing him into base balls hall
Of fame.
Cronin opened the fifth frame with
a looper to right good for two bases
to become the first National to get on
the runway in the game. Hale. the
second baseman, made q great try for
the ball. He ran way back in right,
but the wind was bearing the sphere
away from the fielder and it barely
grazed Hale's gloved hand as 1t fell in
front Of him and bounded away. But
Hale was charged with an error and
q good hit was kept from Cronin.
Manush ,pas the second Ma
tiond7 to get on. One ,uds out In
the serenth Uhen Heine rapped
smartly to Hdle's left. The sec
0nd-sdcker cut dotpn the drire,
but couldn't make retiring
throtD.
This was branded an error, too, but
there was some excuse for doing So. Clif
Bolton was the third National to reach
first base. He batted for Moe Berg with
two out in the eighth and drew a pass.
Then came those two honest hits in
the ninth that kept from Pearson what
would have been tainted no-htt-game
credit.
EIRST game -Cissel played a spark
Il ling game at short for the Tribe
...he handled cleanly seven
chances and was particularly severe on
Goslin and Schultz. singing In the
first frame, Kuhel made it IS games in
row in which he had batted the ball
to safety. .Cissell tried to steal as
Averill struck out in the first inning,
but Sewell's throw beat the runner
nicely. Porter got away with a theft
in the third inning. SO did Kuhel in
the second, but they nipped Joe
when he tried it again in the fourth. >.
In both the eighth and the ninth in
nings the Nationals had two on with
two out. .Cronin ended the eighth by
forcing Manush. Stewart went to
three -and-two count in the ninth be-
fore finishing it by popping to Kamm
-. so, 900 were on hand. 1t was the
last ladies' day of the year and more
than sc, 900 of the fair fans turned out.
Also 10000 school children got in free.
CECOND Game. - Although Pearson
y chucked but six strike-outs. he
certainly threw lot of called
strikes, barring the seventh inning.
Many of the batters had two against
them before they swung in despera-
ton. The young pitcher had splendid
control, generally getting that ball ever
the inside corner knees-high. The
first three Of those four hits OF Burke
in the third were driven right back at
the pitcher, skidders through the box
to center, but the fourth hit was
line drive to center by AveriH. That
triple with which Hale started the
fourth was q peach. 1t went all the
way to the running track bordering
the deep Cleveland center feld. Had
he not been checked by Coach Patsy
Charity at third, Hale might easily
have had q hcme run from the blow
.Kuhel,s hitting streak went blooey
in this game e-nothing doing In three
shots at Pearson. oh, well, Is sue
cessive games with hits was pretty
good, any way Harris crashed the
game IN the eighth to play first base
7. He took throws from Boken and
Chapman IN fne style.
