So far this season the Angels have put it over the Tigers in 15 out of 20 starts. dack Fournier, first sacker for the Angel bunch, said that the boys were confident that they would smear the Tigers, as they would pick up in their hitting when they returned to the home lot.

Sometimes it is done by holding the other fellow down to almost no runs and then winning out on a small score. Again games are won by smashing the old pill for No team can have too Cleveland has a fair array smiths in its linéup but if 50 more points were added to Speaker's average what a hard time any other team would have beating the Indians out Tris joined the Indians in 1916 and batted 386.
