Case Cuttings
By E. H. CASE

Fletcher seems to be a safe bet
to win the second half in the coun-
ty loop. But E. Flat Rock is still
in the fight and Balfour IS hope
full, but Fletcher is pretty certain
to trounce Brisco Crisp and his
charges next Saturday at Balfour.
Valley Hill has lost only one game
but the Killers are an uncertain
quantity and quality, and they
have too many double-headers to
play. However, they will fight
right down to the last game.
But don't miss the Fletcher
Balfour game at Balfour Satur-
day. 1t will be one of the seasons
best. Both teams are plenty
strong, but if you hear terrible
noise like the eruption of vol
cano along about the fifth inning
don't think it's the boilers at the
mill. 1t will be Brisco Crisp blow
ing up.
1t is high time that the presi-
dent of the county league got all
the managers together and iron
out the disputes, protests and
kinks that have recently sprung
up throughout the circuit. Players
have jumped from team to team
with such reckless abandon and
the rules and regulations of the
league have been so woefully neg
lected or ignored that there is i'm
minent danger of the whole Or
ganization going on the rocks.
Yes, he's a great hitter-a big
strong fellow-plays on all the all
star teams-should be playing ball
in some league and drawing two
or three hundred a month - but,
yeah, that's the word-but if he
could pitch no-hit. no-run game
every day, strike out 81 men in 9
innings, hit five home runs out of
tlve trips to the plate with the
bases loaded each time, win the
game by a 25 to nothing score
and have a whole sports page de-
voted to exploiting his deeds of
sAu,-he might be satisfied.
News-The Hendersonville ALL
Stars played Renfrew Mills to a
ten-inning 3-3 tie last Thursday
at Renfrew Mills. Ermando Hora-
thus Cascarindo wasn't there to
get the game for this rag.
Everybody knows that Detroit's
terrible Tigers are going to win
the pennant in the American
league this year. And this should
prove to big league managers
that a great catcher makes a great
ball team out of most any old
club. Mickey Cochrane would pull
the Cincinnati Reds out of the
cellar in a few weeks.
Remember that Valley Hill and
Mills River play at the Laurel
Park diamond Saturday afternoon
This will be a good game. Don't
miss it.

Mickey Cochrane's Tiger men VIZ

the American league p2nnans PIC
ture yesterday By sweeping the
double-header that opened their
vital five-game series before the
second largest crowd that ever
saw baseball game IN New York,
$4,000.
While more than $4,000 Others
stormed the gates and were
turned away by mounted and foot
patrolmen, the Tigers came from
behind in the first game to win
9 to 5 and broke away from q
deadlock in the second to triumph
Z to 8.
The game was played in world
series atmosphere. with fans
jammed into every available niche
along the stadium's rambling
ramps. stands and bleachers. They
even lined the tops of nearby ten
ement houses. The fans implored
the Yanks "murderouS row to
cut down the Tigers lead. But
murderers' row today could not
be accused of manSlaughter, aft
er letting the Cochrane Cats get
away with both games, which the
Yanks were favored to win on
their home grounds. -,
This twin triumph increased the
Detroit lead to six and hall
games over the second place Yam
KEGS. A six and a half game lead
at this stage of the campaign Is
regarded by most experts as VIZ
tually "home."
In addition these two wins
stretched the Tigers string OF
victories to IA straight, and
Schoolbov Rowe, ace of the De-
troit fingers, registered his 18th
straight triumph in the nightcap.
More than 1900 paying Gus
toners were included in the ire
mendous crowd, which saw Char
ley Gehringer, the Tigers bril-
liant second baseman, and Rowe
vie for honors of the day. Gehr-
niger drove in two runs in the
first contest and four in the sec
ond. His blows included a home
run in each game with a mate
aboard each time. Big Rowe
pitched an alright contest in the
second when he limited the ianks
to four hits. Ray Haywirth, who
caught for the Tigers in the open
err, had a perfect day at bat with
two walks and three singles.
The Bengals proved themselves
superior in every department Of
play. They outhit the fading New
York veterans, Outpitched them
and proved smarter and faster on
the field.
