BY the fifth inning the Columbus
champs had sent five runners over
the plate and it was the second hall

tailed one marker. In the sixth the
Tribesmen counted one more anc

works when an exciting rally pro-
duced three markers and left the
score at to 5, Red Birds.
Sherlock Smacks One
In the ninth Johnny Cooney
opened with a single and advanced
on sacrifice by Stephenson, anc
Stevie was safe when Delker, cover
ing first base, dropped a toss by
Pitcher Ryba. The runners moved
up on Heath's infield out and Be-
dore was given an intentional walk
filling the bases.
Sherlock smacked a vicious drive
over second that went as a hit
scoring Cooney with the tying run,
but ShortStop Ankenman made a
football dive, blocked the sphere
and held Stephenson on third. An
kenman tried hard for a force on
Bedore at second, but his throw
tipped over Delker's head, leaving
all sacks filled.
Gutteridge, Red Bird third sacker,
was playing deep when Johnny Rid
die stepped to the plate and a slow
roller to that territory went safe
for an infield hit, allowing Stephen
son to cross the plate with the vic
tory run.
Walsh and EppS Collide
Bad luck overlook the Indians
during the hard scrap. Pitcher Bob
Walsh, former Notre Dame athlete,
who relieved Phil Gallivan in the
fifth round, was spiked accidently
by Outfielder Epps of the Red Birds
when the players collided at first
base in the eighth inning. Walsh's
right forearm and the back of his
right hand were lacerated and the
wounds required 10 stitches. He
was hurried to the City Hospital
after receiving first aid.
The hospital report said the cuts
we're not deep, but the big fellow will
be out of the game indefinitely. The
Tribe hurler lost a lot of blood.
Walsh was doing a fine job of
stemming the Columbus attack
when the accident occurred. He
only allowed one hit in four innings
and the one run scored off him was
put on base by an infield error.
Toledo Here Tomorrow
The series with the Red Birds will
close today with action beginning at
3 p. m. Fred Haney's Toledo Mud
Hens will invade the stadium to-
morrow to begin a series of four tits
lasting through Sunday.
Tribe fans got their first glimpse
of young Jimmy Sharp yesterday.
He is the up and coming 19-year-
old southpaw from California. He
pitched the ninth stanZa against
the A. A. champs and squeezed
through without allowing a score.
He walked Hassett, first up, Cullop
sacrificed and then Jimmy cut loose
a wild pitch, permitting Hassett to
reach third.
Sharp frightened, struck out Pad
gett and Gutteridge lined out to
Bedore.
Battle of Strategy
The opposing managers, Wade
Killefer and Ray Blades, fought out
duel of strategy in the eighth
when the Indians rallied. Stephen
sor was first up and drew a walk
out of Jim Winford, veteran right
handler, the Red Bird starting hurl-
er. Heath skied out and Bedore
singled Stevie to second. Sherlock
also walked, filling the sacks and
Riddle brought the crowd to it's feet
by shooting a double to left, scoring
Stevie and Bedore and putting
Sherlock on third.
Johnny Stoneham, lefthanded
swinger, was sent up to bat in place
Of the injured Walsh and with the
count at one ball and one strike,
Manager Blades jerked Winford and
sent in Judd, a southpaw.
Chief Killefer matched this move
by sending his rookie catcher, Dee
Moore, righthanded hitter, to re-
place Stoneham. Moore drew free
ticket, filling the sacks. Costello
then scored Sherlock on a long fly
and Sprinz, a righthanded hitter,
batted for Lawrie and forced Moore
for the side-retiring out. Columbus
sent in Ryba. a righthanded hurler,
to relieve Southpaw Judd when
Sprinz went up to swing for Lawrie,
a lefthanded batter.
This left the Indians one run be-
hind and two needed to win, which
they accomplished, as related pre-
