At any rate, it looks as though the scraps with the West afford the Wash- ington club a splendid opportunity to improve its hold on the runner-up berth. PITCHER at the plate must be respected as much as any other | batter by the pitcher on the slab, even though the one at the plate may be Robert Moses Grove, who batted just an even .200 last season and has broken no hitting marks this year. Sad Sam Jones should know this now if he didn't before the seventh inning Yesterday when Grove demonstrated to the satisfaction of all hands in Shibe Park except the Nationals and their supporters he is to be considered no maik at bat For with two out and two on Grove stepped into one of Sad Sam's pitches to send the ball down the right field line for a single scoring two runs. It did not look as though Jones was | “bearing down" in his flinging to the Mack hurler, and if he wasn't he made one grand mistake, for that hit as- | suredly tucked away the ball game for the home side. True, the Nationals already were the trailers of a 2-to-1 count, but they still were full of fight as they went into the home seventh. Jones had been giving Grove a good argument and the Johnson band had pecked away ! at Grove in a manner that indicated it might do something in a run-mak- ing way at any time. But when Jones fafled to make Grove a third out in the seventh all the fight oozed out of the Nationals and before the inning was over the A's had registered eight suns for their batting turn. Six of the runs crossed after Joe Cronin made an error of a chance that should have resulted in a third retire- ment, but it was Jones' seemingly care- less hurling to Grove that gave the A’s the big break they had been wait- ing for. The Mackmen got 10 hits off Jones. 6 in their big seventh. In pitching his twenty-eighth win of the year, Grove ylelded seven hits, struck out seven and did not issue a pass. His control was remarkable, for he wasted few throws. Carl Fischer was sent in to hurl the eighth against the A's and he filled the bases with passes | after getting one out, but nothing more bhappened to him, TTH a homer lofted into the upper left field stands Williams put the Athletics in front in the second inning. Foxx had singled with one ! out and Williams did fhis whacking with two out. The Nationals combed Grove for a tally in the third, Bluege's single, Spencer's infield erasure and a one-baser by Jones producing the run. After that both hurlers battled brilliantly until Jones blew sky high | in _the seventh. It was a fine single by Foxx that opened the big inning for the A's ‘Then Miller lined down the left field line, but Bluege just managed to cuff down the ball and throw for a force- out of Foxx.

BY FRANCIS J. POWERS. HICAGO, September 9 (C. P.A).—Hack Wilson has learned the bitter truth of the old sports proverb, “The guy who bats around all night won't bat .300 long.” The pudgy outfielder, who only last year was the home run king of the majors and the idol of Chicago Cub fans, was an outcast among his former teammates today. Irrevocably through as a member of the Cubs and barred from the club house at Wrigley Field, Wilson was preparing to return to his home in Martinspurg, W. Va, Wilson's future is indefinite. Per- haps some other major league club will be willing to chance his refor- mation and a rejuvenation of his powerful bat. Otherwise Hack will be forced back into the minors, where there will be no howling thousands to cheer his appearance at the plate. But in any event there will he na $35,000 salary awalting Reconciliation. him and his future will be seasoned with the bitter taste of ashes. ‘Wilson does not seem at all peni tent and his attitude is that of person_who has received an unfair deal. Which, of course, makes his chances of a reconciliation with the Cubs impossible. He has been out of condition practically all season and it was lack of ability to play rather than any feud with Rogers Hornsby or failing eyesight that converted him from a home run hitter into a mediocre player. ‘The Cubs were very patient with ‘Wilson and gave him numerous op- portunities for reform, but he reach- ed the end of his tether last week.
