Second-Guessers in Glory as Nats Flop : Records Set as Cards Climb to Third YANKS® WIN MAKES CRONIN |psrqy]F STARS WRONG TO AIDES IN STAND Heat Gets Volunteer Pilots Among Record Throng of 29,000 as Manager’s Justifiable Moves Plan- ned to Drag Game Out of Fire Fail. BY JOHN B. KELLER. FTER a great day for the second guessers in Griffith Stadium, the Nationals were to wind up their series with the Yankees this afternoon with little to lose. Even defeat for them in the final game of the set still would leave them in the league lead one up on their most dangerous rivals in the American League race. The 7-to-2 defeat—due largely to erratic fielding by the home side—that came yesterday after their second successive victory over the New Yorkers was nothing to blast the Nationals’ hope of a pennant. Also nothing to bring about criticism of the various moves ' Joe Cronin, the Washington field marshal, made in an effort to drag the game out of.the fire. There grandstand managers after the rrgy in Many among the 29,000 Griffith Stadium—the greatest throng to attend a ball game there this year—professed to be mystified when Cronin withdrew Earl Whitehill, starting pitcher, in the sixth inning with one Yank out, one on and the score tied. Many wondered at the substitu- tion of Bob Burke at the outset of the eighth inning for Jack Russell, Whitehill's successor, who in the seventh had yielded the run to put the New Yorkers ahead. Still more were puzzled by the ofiense changes the Washington pilo. made in the Nationals' seventh batting turn when Sam Rice was sent in to bat for Russell, who had come back well after being nicked for the Yanks' third run, and Dave Harris was chosen to bat for Buddy Myer, who in his previous turn | Bl had slapped one for three basses. These several moves by.Cronin did the Nationals no good and gave the B second guessers a lot of leeway to squawk about his handling of the club. Yet, after all, he had his reasons, and sound ones, for what he did. Let him tell it, even though he need not make any defense. Plain Facts From Cronin. (%4 HITEHILL went along pretty VV well for three innings,” said Joe after the game. the Yankees got off him in that time amounted to four hits and one run. And that run came from a very fluky hit. But Earl was plainly tiring in the fourth. The extreme heat was getting him. He managed to carry on for ice packs put on his head by Mike Martin | T Tevived him to some extent. “But he admitted he was wabbly when he went out for the sixth inning. | I had told Russell to be ready for an | emergency before we took the field for | the sixth and when I sensed that Earl | ‘was pretty well weakened by the heat | I figured it best to change. “Shifting from Russell to Burke at, the start of the eighth inning certainly scemed a fair move to me,” Cronin de- clared. “There were two left-hand hitters coming up, Ruth and Gehrig. ‘What was more logical than to bring in a left-hander at such a stage of a close game? And it would have worked well, too, had not Gehrig managed to pop his intended sacrifice over Blueges head. Had Ossie been able to grab that pop Ruth would have been doubled off first base and very likely not a run would have been scored in the inning. We still would have been in the ball game.” That planned switch from Russell to Burke accounted for the use of Rice at bat in the home side’s seventh, of course. Cronin needed no explanation for this move. As to the substitution of Myer for Harris, there was a word due from the manager. “Buddy had done well,” Joe admitted, “but I figured a right-hand hitter might be better to send against the left-handed Van Atta ' at the time. We had a runner on third base with two out and needed a run to tie. Harris had been effective against left-handers, so I played a hunch. “It didn't work. But under similar circumstances I'd do the same thing &gain.” 3 A second-guessing fan who insists | that the Nationals must come through with every game in this big series with the Yankees that was due to end this afternoon. Second guessers, though, do not play the game on the fleld. That's something strictly up to Joe Cronin and his aides. After all, the Nationals have licked the Yankees in 9 out of the 13 tussles they have had with one another this season. And theyre still leading in the race for the American League pen- nant by two games. So why get worked up over a fourth | licking handed the Washington club by its closest contender for the cham- | pionship? It's too hot, anyway, and | besides the season is no more than two- thirds gone. Much water can flow un- der many bridges before it ends. Too Hot Now to Worry.

O long as the Yankees have Rus- sell Van Atta to send to the pitching peak they’ll have a great chance to cop their annual series with the Nationals, even though | before today's contest it was against :.:)lem, nine games to four, with nine | to g0 This young left-hander has hurled the New Yorkers to three of their four victories over the Washington club. He | has been beaten by it only once. And in the four games he has faced them, the Nationals have collected but seven runs Van Atta was better yesterday as he pitched his club to a 7-to-2 victory than at any other time against the Na- still sore from an injury inflicted when | struck by a batted ball recently. He held them to eight hits spread over as | many innings and yielded but one pass. | For a time it seemed he might suc- cumb to the terrific heat. Throughouts| the first five innings he staggered ‘nbout the mound as though ready to give up any moment. Then he ‘braced perceptibly and finished breezingly. Van Atta’s was just about the great- est individual effort of this hectic series between the Nationals and their great- est rivals. Griffs’ Errors Costly. T was remarkable that the Na- tionals managed to keep the game as close as they did for six innings. Their defense was spotty and so was their pitching. Earl Whitehill, - who | started, was hit safely in all but the fifth frame. The heat finally got him in the sixth and he had to give way to Jack Russell. This lanky right-hander was in only one and two-thirds innings to take the beating. Then after Bob | Burke got in a bad spot through no real runs into the laps of the Yankees and the ball game was gone beyond recall. All told, the Yanks helped themselves to 11 safeties. But they really u.med only two of their runs. Errors by Gos lin, Schulte and Thomas helped mm | plenty. That homer hoisted over the right field fence in the second session was the eighth of the season for Joe Kuhel. He leads the Nationals at socking for the circuit. Babe Ruth suffered an odd accident In the sixth. As he drove the ball down the rieht-fleld line and started for first the big fellow ste, on his own MONDAY, AMERICAN YESTERDAY'S RESULTS.
