It already was established that he had good speed. a nice breaking curve and excellent control. but he was supposed to lack a slow ball and how he would conduct self when something was at stake was problematical. He demonstrated vesterday that he is not worried with hostile run- ners on the paths. and he employed a_change of pace that proved highly effective. He victimized Holke, Gib- son, Powell and Ford with slow balls, ach of them lofting harmlessl Goslin Ficlds Poorly. Erickson and considerably difficulty deceiving the opposition than his youthful teamma the Braves bunching bingles on him in two different ns. in addition’ to which he was a trifle unsteady. but with perfect support he probably would not have been scored on at that. Both of the runs the Bean- eaters registered cam hits to right field. which Goslin foozled. the ioes mufling one and uncorking a ild heave on another. Pec hanks, Kopf. Boeckel and Ford all contributed noteworth: fielding feats, Kopl being the busiest man on the diamond with thirteen chancex. all Lut one of which he handled faultlessly. An unusual ture of the battle was that the Nationals registered five earned runs on as many hits, while Both of the tallies the Braves got on ine hits were tainted. only one of the Griffithian bingles being wasted. Brillheart uncorked some stuff when it was needed in the opening round. With two gone. Southworth doubled over Rice’s head and Nichol- son walked. Brillheart then bore down and whiffed Boeckel in most approved fashion. He retired the Braves in order in the next two frames, and after Niciolson had sin- mled with one out limited both Bocckel and Hol weak taps easily taken care of. Gowdy shot a bingle to right in the fifth that netted him two ba be- cause Goslin and Rice were differen- ttal as to who should pick it up. Neither McQuillan nor Powell, who followed, could get the ball out of the infieid, however. Brillheart then called it a day. Erickson taking up the hurling burden, with Picinich as his receiver in place of Gharrity. Olaf began his regime by putting a Brave in position to score, but managed to pull through. With Kopf disposed of, he walked Southworth, and Eric sent him to second with a wild heave to Judge in an effort to nip him off. He advanced another notch while Harris was retiring Cruise, who batted for Nicholsen. but was anchored when Stanley also took care of Boeckel's roller. Helpless for Six Inningn. For six Innings the Nationals were heipless at bat. Nothing that resem- bled a safety was made, Oeschger. who was knocked out of the box b: them last Tuesday, showing a re- versal of form. He faltered only ence when he walked Rice in the second inning, but Goslin hit into a double play, and, after Kopf errored on Har- ris' grounder, Shanks popped. Starting with the fourth McQuil- Jan was equally effective for three innings, but he came a cropper in the seventh when the Nationals shoved over a pair of tallies, the first of the afternoon, and but for the fact Walsh booted a decision, the yield would have been greater. more to Peck beat out a rap to Kopf and| Milan walked. Rice laid down a tap that McQuillan ferried late to Boeck- el forced. Goslin scored Milan from sec- ond with a single to right, Rice tak ing third. Here the squeeze play was successfully essaved. Harris tapping to first bade and Rice scoring before Holke could get the ball to Gowd. Shanks walked to fill the bases, an on Picinich's crack to Kopf, Goslin was forced at the plate. Erickson tossed off another run when, with the count three and two on him, he made an ineffectual swing at a ball high on the Inside. The Braves came back in their half with an unearned run that was charged against Goslin. Holke led with a single. Ford walked and Gow- dy biffed safely to right. Goslin cap- tured the ball in short order and got oft a hefty heave that would easily have flagged Holke at the plate had it been a accurate as it was strong.

After driving a ball nearly to the distant bay. but foul by a few feet, Pat connected for a liner labeled for three bases that Kopf leaped and speared with his glove hand. Brillheart, Judge and Ford were the principals in a sensational bit of play that developed in the fourth., The: latter hit a line drive that Judge could | only knock down with one hand. He recovered and tossed to first, to which Brillheart and Ford were staging a | race. Brillheart dived to catch the| ball and siid over the sack in a’cloud ! of dust just an instant ahead of Ford.
