30 SPORTS. -THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., TUESDAY, JUNE 30, 1925 SPORTS. League Lead Goal of Nationals Today : JOHNSON OPPOSES HARRISS WITH TOP NICHE AT STAKE Judge Furnishes Punch That Beats Gray for First| Time This Season as Covey Hurls Champions to 4-to-1 Victory Over the Athletics. THOMPSON, The Star. ET Harriss! i BY DENMAN Sports Editor, G his was the battle cry of the Gsiffmen as they prepped for action in their farewell fracas with the Mackmen this afternoon “Getting” the long. lean flinger of the Athletics is no ecasy task, as their four failures in six attempts to date this scason indicate, but with W. Perry Johnson, dean of American League hurlers and ace of the local <taff, officiating on the mound the champions hope effectually to dispel any notion that the slim slinger of the A's really has them buffaloed, as some of the fans believe. Victory today for the Nationals will mean more than merely boosting their total of wins to 8 in 13 games against Washington's chief obstacle to a second straight pennant. The additio: incentive of attaining first position in the flag race will spur them to their best efforts.

How the A’s Were Balked. In the initial ion, with Hale on the far corner following a _lucky Texas League double, it was Peckin- paugh who came to the rescue with a fine play of Simmons’ roller close to the middle cushion. After Iding a bingle to Welch in the second and running the risk of cooling off while Jupe Pluy had his long inning, Covey forced G loway tohit into a force play. Bluege bobbed up with a scintillat- ing bit of one-hand bunt fielding that snuffed Hale in the third: double plays by the airtight inner cordon behind Covey nullified safeties by Lamar and Poole in the succeeding sessions, and McNeely drew the spotlight with a spiffy effort that scotched Hale's bid for an extra base blow in the sixth. Another two-ply killing frustrated the A's after Lamar singled in the seventh and Covey turned in a pair of strikeouts to offset his only pass— that to Cochrane in the eighth. Sl started.

Announcement of the sale of Ballou was made by President Nicklin of the Chattanooga club, who, while for many years a star outfielder with the New York Giants, was known as Sam- my Strang, the first two sections of his real monicker. The deal was arranged by Joe Engel, chief scout of the Nationals, who has been camping with the Look outs for 10 days or so and reported to Clark Griffith in enthusiastic terms as to Ballou's ability. Ballou, who is slated for delivery to the champions at the close of the Southern Association season, s a righthander, about 25 vears old. and is touted as possessing a lot of stuff, including a great curve ball The Cleveland Indians were after Ballou some three vears ago when Leslie Nunamaker was helmsman at attanooga, but the player became ed with his berth for some son and jumped the reservation. After being out for a year he applied for reinstatement and now again is in good Standing. No better illustration of one of the principal reasons why the Nationals pitching staff is superior to that of the A's could have been afforded than vesterday, when their famous inner cordon performed in trenchant style to help Coveleskie over the rough spots. Speed, curves and control are im- portant factors in the success of a heaver and Covey displayed them all yesterday, but, without support of the men behind him, the Pole would have had a much tougher job. On no less than four occasions double plays were executed to snuff alien rallies, the famous Peck-to-Harris-to- Judge combination turning in three of them, while Bluege initiated the other. One of the principal reasons for the impotency of the Athletics in the games here has been thespiking of the big gun of the visitors, Al Sim- mons. Mack’s clean-up swatter has been unable to get a ball into safe territory in the two games here and yesterday drilled into a trio of dual deaths after being robbed of a safety by Peck on his first time up. Just how costly Simmons’ weak wand work proved may be judged from the fact that Bill Lamar on all three of these occasions had, just previously, nicked Covey for singles, the Rockville citizen thereby running his string of consecutive hitting games up to 29. Individual flelding honors for the day were shared by Bluege and Mec- Neely. Oss staged his bright bit at the expense of Hale in the third by dashing in at top speed to grab a bunt with his bare hand and fiip it to Judge a fraction ahead of the 1 Specialists in the Care of Automobiles HOW’S YOUR' ENGINE?

GRIFFS BADLY “STUNG” IN COVEY AND RUETHER Just how badly Griffith and Har- ris were “stung” in making an old man’s home cut of the Nationals by picking up Dutch Ruether and Stan Coveleskie may be judged from the fact that the league-leading Mackmen have been able to collect exactly two runs off their combined efforts in the last 18 innings they have worked. Covey has yielded only two runs in his last three games, and but a single tally in his last 21 innings. “ancient” Pole not only gained the distinction of inflicting the first defeat of the season on Sam Gray, but now is tied with that worthy for the honor of leading the American League pitchers with nine victories and a lone defeat.

NEW YORK, June 30.—The Giants are taking the dust from the Pirates today. For the first time since early in the season New York is out of the lead in the National League pennant race. While the Giants were ahead of the Braves by 3 to 1 in the second inning yesterday rain stopped the contest. The Corsairs were quick to take ad- vantage of the opportunity and trimmed the Reds, 8 to 1, and gained the pinnacle with a four-point leeway. Cincinnati felt the effects of the rise of the Pirates and was tobogganed into the second division, St. Louis moving into fourth place in the first rank by remaining idle. The chronic ailment of the Yankees, dropping a game after winning two, still persists. For the eleventh time this season the Hugmen failed to ex- tend a two-game winning streak by losing yesterday to the Red Sox, 10 to 5. Boston had lost nine straight. Detroit held fast to the fourth place in the standing by annexing a_ twin program from Cleveland, 4 to 1 and 7to 4. Cobb turned out three doubles and a single out of four attempts in the opener. The Browns polished off the White Sox in the first of a serles, 5 to 2, Mogridge ylelding but five hits. Dazzy Vance was the undoing of the Phillies, permitting but five safe. ties, while the Robins garnered 15 off Carison and Knight to win by 8 to 3. Fournier slammed his 14th circuit drive of the season. The Phillies made a triple pla: LIBERTY A. C.

If this team comes back, the associa- tion race will get another stirring up. Although the New Orleans team has just about held its own in the South- ern Association, there are indications that this race will come to a closer fight before long. Baltimore continues to lead the In- ternational race, but it has lost ground again, and seems unable to hold the margin of safety it was able to main- tain in former years.

BY JOHN B. FOSTER. EW YORK, June 30.—The Pittsburgh Pirates not only have the N tinction of being the first team that has been able to topple the Giants out of first place in two years, but they also are the first team to use with success the scheme of interchangeable first basemen The whching of outfielders is a regular stunt with some managers, players who bat right-handed being used against left-handed pitchers and vice versa. But it 1s not the usual thing for a first baseman who bats leit handed to be benched in favor of a right-handed swinger when a sou paw goes in to do the pitching for the opposition. Cleveland tried it wit Burns and Johnston in 1922, but it was not what would be termed a scir tillating success.
