BY BURTON HAWKINS.

The Griffmen resorted to calling
out the marines 500 of
'em from Quantico-but it was the
Yankees who had the situation well
in hand. More specifically, it was
the pitching hand of Marvin Breuer,
plus Washington's incompetent field
ing that dealt the Mats an 81 defeat
at Griffith Stadium.
The Devil Dogs, guests of the man
agement. and some 5000 customers
were witnessing a devilish sort of
fielding exhibition by the Mats,
whose four errors figured promi-
nently in New York scoring. The
Yankees we're inserting IL timely
hits off Sid Hudson. Walter Master
son and Arnold Anderson to present
the Mats an unpleasant afternoon.
Washington obtained only six hits
off Breuer.
While the Mats were entrench-
ing themselves deeper in the Amer
lean League basement the Yankees
were increasing their league lead to
1872 games, what with the st. Louis
Browns contributing a 10-1 triumph
over the Chicago White Sox.
Griffs Beat Themselves.
Washington assorted pitching
was NO mystery to Tommy Heinrich
and Joe Gordon who mustered seven
singles between them, but it was
Washington's inept fielding rather
than the Yankees attack that in
sured Washington's whipping.
For while it appeared the Mats
would make more errors than hits,
for in the first five innings Wash
ington collected only two bingles off
Breuer. who was en- route to his
ninth win, and in the same time Mr..
Clark Grifhth's athletes had in
serted three disastrous errors.
Hudson placed himself in an an
noying predicament in the first in
ming when he scooped up Phil Riz-
Zutos bunt with one out and threw
wildly past First Baseman Mickey
Vernon for a twO-baSe error. Hen
rich delivered the first of his four
singles, sending Rizzuto to third,
and Rizzuto scored as Jimmy Blood
worth threw out Charley Keller.
Heinrich taking second. Bill Dickey
poked single to left, scoring Hem
rich, and lean William continued
to second as George Cases throw to
the plate escaped Catcher Jake
Early for an error. George Selkirk
propelled Dickey across with a single
to right.
More Wierd Stuff.
New York increased its advantage
to SO off Hudson in the third in
ming. Rizzuto again was safe when
Shortstop Cecil Travis high throw
pulled Vernon of the bag with one
out and Henrich's single to left sent
him to third. Hudson unleashed a
wild pitch at that point, scoring
Rizzuto and sending Heinrich to
second, and Keller's triple down the

ISOLATION. as Dickey popped to Blood
worth and Selkirk famed.
The Mats staged an uninspiring
rally in the sixth to produce their
only run. Case beat out a bunt
down the first base line with two
out, stole second, went to third as
Roger Cramer beat out bounder to
First Baseman Johnny Sturm and
scored as Sturm threw wild past
Breuer, covering first.
Masterson, who had contributed a
fine streak of hurting to blank the
Yankees for three innings after re-
placing Hudson starting the fourth
inning. was nicked for another Yam
kee run in the seventh and two
more in the eighth.
Sturm walked to open the seventh,
advanced on RiZZutos sacrifice, took
third as Heinrich beat out a slow
roller to Travis and scored after
Keller flied deep to Cramer. Keller,
incidentally, passed the idle Joe Di
Maggie in their individual battle
for the runs-batted-in leadership of
the league, swatting across three
New York runs.
Selkirk Hit in Back.

the ball to bounce over his head for
an error Gordon also Tailed and
Crosetti continued to third. Mas
terson picked up Breuer's tap and
trapped Crosetti between third and
the plate to prevent additional YAM
kee scoring.
Vernon staked the Mats to scor-
ing opportunity in the seventh when
he tripled to right with one out,
but George Archie grounded meekly
to Rizzuto, whose throw to Dickey
nipped Vernon at the plate.

Mats Recall Six From Minors
And Buy Five Other Players

President Clark Griffith of the
Nationals announced the recall of
six players on option and the pur-
chase of five more yesterday, but
the news isn't astounding. OF the
five pitchers recalled or purchased,
only Philip Mccullough, bought
from Greenville, S. c., of the Sally
League, has won more games than
he has lost.
Griffith also obtained three in
fielders, two outfielders and catch
er, but of that crop only First Base
man Jack Sanford of Chattanooga,
batting .321. is hitting over 300.
OF the group, Griffith anticipates
the most from Outf1elder Roberto
Ortiz. purchased from Charlotte,
N. c., of the Piedmont League.
Ortiz is batting .292, but packs pow
er. owns an excellent throwing arm
and is fast. Ortiz. who came to the
Mats as a pitcher two years ago,
will be imported for trial in about
10 days.
Evening star., 1941-08-31

Pitchers recalled on option are
Hardin Cathey of Charlotte and
Bill Zinser of Greenville, both of
whom own records of II wins
against 13 losses. Bill Kennedy and
Dick Poydock, purchased from Char
lotte, possess 80 and ST. records,
respectively.
The catcher is Carlton Hoberg
recalled from Charlotte, where he
is hitting 246, and the other out
fielder is Jim Mallory, who is bat
ting 228 with Charlotte.
Robert Morem, third baseman
batting 297 with Greenville, and
Shortstop Sherrard Robertson, who
hit .249 with Springfield, Mass, and
.221 with Greenville, complete the
list released by Griff1th.
Ortiz probably will be the only
one of the group to report for
trial this fall, although the others
will report to the Mats at their
Orlando (Fla) spring training
base. B. H.

BOSTON, Aug. 30.-Ted Williams,
American League stick leader, striv-

the 400 mark, got two hits, one a
homer, in three trips to the plate
today as the Boston Red Sox won a

The AS couldn't touch Charley
Wagner. who was given a comfort =

Philadelphia hitless until the fifth

Five hits, pass and an error
gave the Seekers six runs in the

Foxx's double off the center-held

Williams homer came in the
fourth after Pete Fox had singled.
Sam Chapman made a great try
