Texas Leaguer over short, Gabriel came running in and scooped the balf up with one hand, and threw the runner out from third to the plate.

DOUBLEHEADER AT NAVY FIELD The. first game of tomorrow’s doubleheader at the Navy Field, which will start at 1:30 o’clock, will be between the Pirates and ‘Stars. Both of these clubs are tied for au lin their.gfifth contest they had jsome tough breaks and lost their | game. ’ | | The-Pirates lost their first two ;games chiefly because their two star pitchers were not in shape,’ but their coach, Henry Mayg, pre-' dicts. “will -not- lose --another ff this\is true then “the Pirates.will, have to play the Slug-, igers fi (for the championship, pont paced ——t I Manager Acevetlo of the Stars ‘elainis Ti and ‘the [Pirates & run for their monéy if the sécbnd half. “Well, I believe! he will, because he did that in the first half and he lost two hard fought games, mainly beeause the breaks were in the' other ¢fib’s favor.

The Stars will use either Molina;~the pitcher imported by Acevedo from Tampa, or the great granddaddy of the game in this. section, Sevilla, who, in his last! appearance, pitched 12 innings of good ball, getting by with his ex- perience more than with his arm, and A, Castro behind the bat. In the other game the Sluggers will nieet the’ Pelicans and the} “Hard-Hitters” will use Lucilo on mound, and Ingraham behind plate. The Pelicans will pick from Salinero, Bolo Garcia, Mar- tinez, Navarro and C. Garcia to _ do mound duty, with R. Rodriguez! , behind the plate. I name a buneh of pitchers because I think I will guess the right one in that lot. In these games, P. Castro, Cates and a few others will fall or rise in the batting averages and their positions will have to change one way or the other. % Things that have happened since the Island City league was or-| ganized for the present champion- ship are: Gates going from the Sluggers to the Pirates for 5,000 pennies, and, then traded to the Stars for, a cup of coffee and two hot dogs. & Rodriguez being released by the Sluggers; Sevilla coming out} will givethe Siuggers.
