Then the trouble. commenced-—for Washington. After holding the Tigers scoreless In the eighth, the youngster went te pieces in the final inning. When McKee singled and stole second and third, Gallia passed three batters in succession, forcing in a run. Crow- ford’s double brought two more run- ners home. Harper replaced Gallia and he lasted long enough to allow Cobb to singld savagely to center, scoring Baumann and Crawford. Har- per pitched three balls to Veach and Hughes was sent to the rescue. He passed Veach, but struck out Gainor and a thrilling game was over. Johnson never extended himself while he worked. Washington found Hall and Lake #r four runs in the first inning and the only real disturbances occurring while Johnson was twirling were Lake’s home run in the third and Cobb's triple, scoring Baumann, in the sixth. Cobb was robbed of a fourth hit_by a wonderful one hand pickup and throw by Foster.

Only one player has succeeded in hitting the bull sign this year i. the Eastern association. Howie Baker, Waterbury’s third sacker, has the dis- tinction.
