PAGE 29 Third Place Yankees Arrive Tomorrow for a Four-Game Series With Nationals HERE’S THAT NEW RIGHT-HAND HITTER HADLEY LIKE LY TO START AGAINST WORLD CHAMPS Nationals Prime for Series in Strenuous Practice | This Morning—Jones, Liska Out Week Longer. TcCullough Here for Physical Exam. BY JOHN B. KELLER. HROUGH with their arch-en T emies, the Athletics, until June 18, the Nationals are hoping to pick up some ground at the expense of their other league rivals to be met here. Excepting the lick- | ings they have taken from the House of Mack, Johnson’s men have played to a 50-50 break—they are a dozen games back of a balance of wins and losses—and should make a respectable showing against the Yankees, who are to open a four-game series here tomor- row, and the Western clubs, due to in June. = hold forth here the first 16 days To prime his henchmen for their tilting with the world champion ‘Yanks, who are playing like anything other than world champs these days it seems, Manager Johnson had them at Griffith Stadium this morning for a strenuous drill. The greater part of the time was de- voted to batting practice, something most of the Nationals appear to need. If only a few members of the Washington club cquld acquire the knack of knocking a long fly ball or putting down a good bunt, the club might benefit greatly thereby. Another double-header, the fourth for the Nationals within less than two weeks, is slated for the Yankee series. Following single engagements tomorrow and Wed- nesday with the Yanks, they will be met in two games the after- noon of Friday, Memorial day. Johnson said today that Irving Hadley very likely will open fire against the New Yorkers in the first game of the series. After Hadley, he will have to depend upon ~Fred Marberry, Garland Braxton and his second-stringers. According to the club physician, Sam Jones and Ad Liska will not be available for mound duty before at least another week passes. Jones' left side in which he pugtd a muscle during the double- bill in New York last Wednesday, re- mains very sore while Liska still is hob- bling about on crutches as a result of the ankle sprain he sustained 11 days ago. However, the club physician says these two casuals may indulge in light workouts starting tomorrow. In base ball these days as in many other athletic pastimes the best de- fense is a powerful offense. It's all very well to keep the other club away from the plate, but the club that expends most of its energy in mnkmf runs generally is the winner. That brilliancy afleld means little unless a club also g:,ks a punch is seen in the record of Nationals this season. They have been around the to}) of the American League as fielders from the outset of the campalgning, but as winners they are dangerously near the bottom of the circuit. Beating Walter Johnson's charges has been no easy task for league rivals scores of games indicate. But the fact remains that they have been licked and that's no help. In base ball it isn't how a club is ll:iked, {olt thehrggx;d: show the game only as a loss who! club goes down flggung or is beaten to 1p. “ !"’l:rz are the Nationals with 22 de- fents in 32 games played to a decision and 13 of the defeats were by a solitary tally. This means that over the greater of the flag chase the Washington o s WL pm S e o) t any d‘:ih;re after holding e ition in check. !:vuwgaleme Tival excepting the St. Louis club has managed to nose out the Nationals by & lone run. The Red Sox. the Indians and the Tigers have done so twice, but the circuit-heading Athletics have treated Johnson's outfit worse. In five of the dozen decisions the House of Mack has earned in set-tos with ‘Washington its mkm'g‘ln of victory was enly a single marker. XZI lheu.!lg lone-run defeats the Na- tionals have suffered, the scores have ranged from 1 to 0 to 10 to 9. In 10 of the 13 lickings of this nature, though, the score-total of both clubs was as great as 11 only once. Washington has been trimmed once, 6 to 5; three times, 5 to 4; twice, 4 to 3; twice, 3 to 2: once, 2 to 1, and once, 1 to 0. That's defense with a capital but that's all. Paul McCullough, pitcher, purchased from the Toledo club of the American ‘Association for $20,000 last Fall, breezed into Washington club headquarters this morning, reporting just three months late. Originally ordered to check in at Tampa training camp last February 25, McCullough notified the Washington club he was recuperating from an in- flyenza-bronchitis attack and could not bé at hand. After that the Washing- ton club could get no satisfactory re- port on McCullough's condition, and asked that Judge Landis put him on the suspended list. This was done and now, after wait- ing. three months, President Griffith ‘wants to know whether McCullough is to be of any use to the Nationals or if the Washington club may get back the $20,000 turned over to Toledo. Base ball law, it seems, voids a sale in case the player purchased fails to Teport because of accident or illness or is voluntarily retired. McCullough re- cently asked to be put on the “volun- tarily retired” list, but later changed his mind. So Griffith appealed to Judge Landis and the base ball commissioner ordered McCullough to report here to- day for physical examination. The pitcher was to go with President Grifith today to Johns Hopkins Hos- pital in Baltimore to be looked over by the doctors and should he fail to get the medical men's O.K. it is understood the Washington club will get its $20,000 back from the Mudhens.

Athletics Maintain Good Lead; Cubs Hold Edge on Cardinals By the Associated Press. HEIR victory yesterday main- tained the Athletics com- fortably ahead of the Amer- ican League field, just four games in front of the St. Louis Browns, who shaded Cleveland by 1 to 0, and five_and one-half to the fore of the Yankees and the Tigers, who rested in a virtual tie for third place. Old Red Faber applied the one-hit treatment to the Tigers in Chicago to win by 2 to 0, as the Yankees went on a spree in Boston to halt the Red Sox by 15 to 4. Babe Ruth's ninth home run was the crowning blow in a 16-hit assault which the cham- showered Billy and Jack Russell. Waite Hoyt was doing very well with the New York pitching until he became involved in a heated debate with Mr. Richard Nallin, the umpire, in the interest of the Hoyt batting average, which is .207. Mr. Nallin, of course, won the argument by a unanimous vote, cast by Mr. Nallin Urban Faber. 7 | himself, and Master Hoyt spent the rest of the afternoon in the clubhouse won- dering whether he would get credit for . | the pitching victory, which he did. The game marked the first appear- ance of the Yankees upon Braves Field, which the Red Sox use for Sunday 7 |games because of its advantage over the Fgnway in seating capacity. Rip Collins scattered seven Indian hits to win over Willis Hudlin by 1 to 0 on only five safe blows by his St. Louls comrades. Blue's double and Manush's single in the eighth settled the argu- ment, leaving the Browns in a threat- ening position. The Pirates definitely inserted them- selves into the National League fight, for the moment at any event, by tak- ing both ends of a double-header from the Cardinals at Sportsman’s Park. The scores were 12 to 8 and 7 to 5, with Burleigh Grimes stampeding to the ald of faltering Pittsburgh pitchers in each engagement. The Cubs, aided by a Hornsby home American League.

The Pirates rested only one and one-half games behind the Cubs and half a game %o the rear of the cham- plon Cardinals.

He failed to keep 2 single from Cronin, but managed to heave the ball to Catcher Mickey Coch- rane, who lunged at Goslin as that worthy threw himself into a desperate slide toward the plate. From a cloud of dust, the Goose emerged, claiming he had scored the run that meant a deadlock. Umpire Brick Owens sald the Goose didn't and the Nationals were licked again by the Athletics, 4 to 3. ‘The Natlonals failed to do much hitting, making seven safeties all told, but they made good use of their hits. Five of them gleaned off the venerable Jack Quinn were clustered in two of the first six rounds, and each of the two clusters meant scoring. But the A’s got to Garland Braxton for 13 hits before he gave way to Fred Marberry in the seventh. The visitors got only one more safety off Marberry, but the dam- age had been done. Ed Rommel, who relleved Quinn, yleld two slams, the two that went for naught in the eighth. It was another case of the Nationals not being able to hold to what they had. Backing a pass to Rice with singles by Goslin and Cronin in the fourth, they managed to put over a run that matched that made by the A’s in the third with Haas' single and Coch- rane’s double. In the sixth they chased Quinn when Myer's single and theft, Goslin's two-bagger and West's single accounted for two tallies and a lead. But the A's came back in the seventh for three runs and the game. Bishop singled, only to be forced out by Haas. Cronin, though, made a wild chuck when he tried for a double play, and Heaas checked in at second. Coch- rane singled Haas to third and then the always-dangerous Simmons was pur- posely passed to fill the bases for a pos- sible side-retiring double play. Hale re- fused to become entangled in the home club’s strategic net, instead singling to center and chasing two runs over to tie e ‘ashington total. When Foxx slashed a single through Myer the sacks were crowded again. Here Marberry came up. ‘He was able only to knock down Miller's measly tap and throw out the batter. That let Sim- mops cross with the big run of the game. By their victory the A’s clinched the annual series with the Nationals. It was the twelfth win for the Philadel- phians in 13 starts against Johnson's charges this season. Incidentally, it was the A’s eleventh successive triumph and the Nationals’ fifth straight defeat. More than 12,000 turned out for the pastiming yesterday. A pretty good €;ovdv¢‘li considering the Nationals’ record e. Cochrane had a perfect day at bat. The A's catcher went to the plate five times for two doubles and three singles. In the last five games'between the A's and Nationals Cochrane went to bat 19 times for 12 hits totaling 19 bases. He also drew one pass and made one sacrifice. Gooch filled in at first base for the Nationals beceuse Joe Judge, regular guardian, was put out of commmission early in the day by a stomach attack. Judge will be on the job again tomor- Tow. Rice made a good throw in the ninth to get Cochrane at the plate after com! in fast for a low catch of Hale's liner.
