In addition to the homer he made a double and two singles in five times at and Fournier saved the Robins from a shutout in their ser- jes with the Cardinals by lusty clout- ing in the seventh inning. Like Speaker and Willlams, Fournier clored the rally with a four ply smash which settled the contest, to 5 With a triple and two doubles, Ty Cobb led Detroit on a batting ram- page before which the champion Senators went down to defeat, 7 to 4, Walter Johnson being driven from the mound.
