NATS BUY FLAGSTEAD FROM BOSTON RED SOX (Continued From First Page.) themselves frcm the depths is the long stand at home that begins this after- During the home stand that is to be opened with a fifth successive game against the Athletics, the Wash- ington club is expected to enter 20 engagements, facing all its rivals in the American League. If it is to get anywhere in the race it must pick up ground during the month's sojourning on its own lot. Should the Nationals manage to win at something like a two-to-one rate— that is score two victories against each defeat—during the stay in Grifith Stadium, they would find themselves in the flag race once more. If they are unable to proceed at such a pace, from the latter part of June on they will have nothing left to fight for but a first-division berth—and it probably would mean a desperate fight to finish as well as that. Unfortunately, the club will begin its home stand in a sad plight. Although the Nationals last seem to have swung into a good hitting stride and are playing sturdy defensive game, their pitching staff is badly shot. Of the regular turn artists, only the left- handed Garland Braxton is able to give a good account of himself and he can- not be called on often, being to frail to do well if used more frequently than every fifth day. Fred M . _who this season promises to be much more valuable l.! a relief hurler than in a starting rol still s suffer! with a cold that has re- effectiveness considerably. Irving Hadley, the chunky Lynn chuck- er, still has to round into good physical | trim. Ad Liska’s sprained ankle and| Sam Jones' sore side are apt to keep two heretofore regular turn men on the shelf for some time. Back of the pitch- ers mentioned, the club has only Lloyd Brown, Bob Burke, Paul Hopkins and Arch Campbell. Any of this quartet may bob up with a good effort once in a while, but none is dependable.
