Did you know that it cost an,
average of $241 81 in pitching alone
to win a game in the Pacific Coast
league? That's the way the ex-
perts have figured it out There
are a few pitchers with good rec
ords, which brings the cost of win
ming way down, but the club own
ers also have to pay the salaries
of the ones who can't seem to win
a game for love nor money. Relief.
pitchers also draw down pretty
penny for helping out once in
awhile and it all adds up to the
cost of victory.
Then there is the cost of spring
training for the Fingers, of bed
ding them down and feeding them.

that add up.
For a five-game winner last year
it cost the club $3.65 every time he

lowed eight costly walks, bringing
two runs across the plate on passes
and setting the scene for several
more by the same method.
Longest hits of the game were
doubles by Clyde Lee, Gilbert House

more than two @safeties by a single

In one of the few double plays
of the season, the City team cut
off a possible scoring threat when
Lee, first baseman, sacked Bud
Landeck'S line drive and stepped
on the bag to put out Max Sones,
who had reached first on single.
The victory showed the City back

The Giants weren't lucky; it's just
that the Tribe was unlucky.
The games biggest break, not
overlooking O'Neale Adams 66-yard
touchdown run with an intercepted
pass, was one that went against
Washington. 1t was that fumbled
pass from center, due to a wet ball,
with Bob Masterson poised for
placement kick from the 12-yard
line. He was a 100-to-1 shot to
make it, what with heavy ball and
in perfect position. That would
have made the score 10-7 for Wash
ington and after that the pressure
would have been on the Giants.
As it was. New York coasted and
the Skins skidded into defeat trying
to get back those seven miserable
points.
