Fourth Spot Assured
AS Mats Face Bosox
In Final Series
Special Dispotch TO The Star

BOSTON, Sept. 27.-Washington's S
Nationals arrived today to take on
the Red Sox in the final series of
the 1916 American League season,
practically assured OF retaining their
grip on fourth place.
The Mats defeated the Athletics,
20, yesterday to sweep their three
game series in Philadelphia, and only
a minor miracle could keep them
from losing their first division spot
to the Chicago White Sox. Fourth
place is worth couple of hundred
dollars or so to each of the Mats and
their play during the Philadelphia
series indicated they're making every
effort to collect it.
Handcuffed by Jesse Flores. the
little Mexican Highlander, in the
first five frames of yesterdays en-
counter, the Mats broke loose in the
sixth to shove across two runs that
meant the ball game.
Buddy Lewis opened the inning by
flying out to Elmer Valo in right field
Joe Grace then worked Flores for a
walk, and after Mickey Vernon had
popped out to short, Stan Spence
connected with a fast ball that
meant the victory. The center fielder
slammed Flores offering against the
right-f1eld wall, enabling Grace to
loaf home, and when Valo fell COL
hiding with the fence, Spence raced
to third base. Cecil Travis laced one
into left field to score Spence. It
looked as if the Senators were still
on the warpath when Jake Early
banged out a single to right. but
Valo made beautiful throw to third
to catch Travis. ending the inning.
Mickey Haefner, the little portsider
with all the tricks, was completely in
control of the AS in hurting a six
hitter. Only one of the Athletics
reached third base. Valo, who got
one of the two walks Haefner
rellnquished, moved up to third on
Don Richmond's single in the first
but he died there when Catcher
Buddy Rosar smacked into a double
play, Billy Hitchcock to Sherry
Robertson to Mickey Vernon.
Vernon, incidentally, had a tough
time at the plate. The leagues lead
