1ney won SUNDAY Dali game
for a change and it marked the
first time since Sunday, July l6,
that such a thing has been done.
Yep, strange as it might seem,
the last time the Griffs won on
Sunday was when the Cleveland
Indians performed at Griffith
Stadium on that mentioned date.
At that time Manager Cronin and
his men beat Monte Pearson,
Walter Johnson's new pitcher, in
a 3-to-2 game-a game that
offered plenty of thrills quite like
YESTERDAYS. in which the New
York Yankees were defeated,
4 to 8.
Now that the jinx is broken,
the team holds hopes of keeping
up the good work when it comes
back to town early in September
when then the last home stand of
the campaign will be begun.
Yep, another mountainous mob.
Every nook and corner of the
regular grandstands were filled
while a goodly portion of the
bleachers had their numbers.
And or yeah! That world
series atmosphere prevailed again.
Proving that the customers of
the dear old home town dearly
love their pennant contenders-er,
ah, er-eXcuSe us, pennant win
ners.
One, two three for the Yanks
in the first, even Old Man Ruth.
And whatta kick, whatta kick
when Cronin singled and Gro
setti made an error on Harris
grounder in the Griffs' end of
the first. But no, the rally was
nipped in the bud when Schultz
lined to Chapman for the third
out.
Horrors! The Yanks scored a
marker in the second and after
two had been retired. It devel-
oped on singles by Lazzeri, Dickey
and Crosetti in succession. Then
Van Alta waved the air to end
the frame.
Sweet music. The Griffs tied
it up in the third. And under
what circumstances, under what
circumstances! Myer opened with
a short drive to right, which he
stretched into a double when
Ruth went after the ball like he
had all the time in the world.
Manush's grounder to Lazzeri
moved Myer to third, from which
point he scored on Cronin's
bounce to Van Alta. But wait!
1t was a close play at the plate.
And how! Van Alta caught Myer
between third and home on
Cronin's bounce. but in the rum
down Dickey dropped the Yam
kee hurler's toss, Buddy sliding
in safely!
A back-and-forth affair. Ell?
Well, the Yanks by their rally in
the fourth made it seem so at
that stage of the game. Yep,
they went into the lead in this
frame, 2 to l, when Chapman
tripled and Lazzeri's slow roller
got by Stewart for a fielder's
choice.

geologists, as well as practical oil men
