Braves Maul Dodgers. Boston, July 7.—After winning three straight games from the Braves the Dodgers stumbled yester- day and were on the losing end in both games of a double header. The scores were,3 to 1 and 1 to 0. Both contests were battles between the pitchers, and just a break at the right time ‘enabled the Boston team to pull out with the winning runs. There was nothing sensational in either game, but there was some fast ball playing and effective work by the twirlers when there were men on the bases.

Lowell 9, Worcester 2 “REGGIE” BROWN, Frank Chance has made arrange- ments with Connie Mack for the ser- vices of Carroll (‘‘Reggie”) Brown, Who has been sulking with the world's champions all summer. Brown has been troubled through lack of control and has not been of a great deal of use to the Athletics. - Occasionally he would show a good game. The tran- saction was for a cash consideration. Brown will report to the New Yorks in a few days. He has a house in Philadelphia of which he wishes to dispose. Connie Mack bought Brown from Waterbury, Conn., in the fall of 1911. Previous to that he was the mainstay of the New Britain club, but was taken to Waterbury when Dan O’Neil bought that franchise, selling out here to J. J. Murphy. In the spring of 1913 the big fellow pitched an eighteen inning game against the Philliés in the ante-season series. Some people wonder why Chance is looking for another pitcher when he now has more good ones than he can | use regularly. The answer is easy. Chance desires Brown so as to be in a position to make a trade with a rival manager who is willing o give an outflelder worthy of the name for a couple of seasoned pitchers. This manager hails from the west and is likely to do business with Chance be- fore the end of the week. EASTERN ASSOCIATION. Yesterday’s Results. New London. 8, New Britain_ 4.
