WHEN IT COMES TO_RECOMMEND.- ING A SUITABLE VACATION SPOT, SUMMER GOOD AND SUMMER NOT, YANKS DROP IN RACE AFTER HARD FIGHT WITH INDIANS Although Covaleskie, the Really Great Cleveland Pitcher, Holds Locals to Three Hits, They Put Up Stubborn Battle and Are Dangerous Till Final Out. tention to the condition of the ball, and #0 far as I could see only one was thrown out of play. Coveleskie pitched @ magnificent game. He used speed, his old spit ball, and a twisting fadeaway which was excellent He did not use the fader as often as he did in that foun League race after @ desperate|tsiicus nineteen-inning game, in struggle with Cleveland. which be beat the Yanks a month ‘In apite of the tact that Coveleskie,| ago, but when he did drop it over who has become | the plate it wae @ wonder. Incidentally, the Yanks fafled to hit into a double play, because they didn’t get enough runners on bases to be doubled up, save tn one instance when a wild of the bell pre- vented one, By Hugh S. Fullerton. Copyright, 1018, the Press @ubtistins Oo, (The New York Evening World). UR Yanks fought bard against superb pitching yesterday and fell to third place tn the Amer- ‘oe holding them in me paim of his good right hand, {othe Yanks had « ) ©, real chance to win AD news from out West The Giants tried to get by at Pitts- burgh with a second string pitcher and got scotched, while the Cubs {the game, and fought ft out to . the finish, and toward the end of trSi the bitter strug- . stue they were @mashing the dall viciously. Cove- held them to three hits, two of Which were semi-accidental, yet had @l he could do to beat them. There was one real chance for the Yanks to win the game and keep pace with the Red Sox, who are going| great guns on their home jot and who beat the White Sox yesterday because Babe Ruth had another batting spree. That chance came tn the seventh | ing just as the rain, which had| een threatening all afternoon and| which held down the size of the q@rowd, commenced to splatter down. Peckinpaugh drew a base and Baker @lected to hit instead of sacrificing. By the way, that makes two games succession that were lost because er hit instead of sacrificing. That is not criticism, merely statement of fact, because it looked to be the best Judgment to let him hit. He fied out ‘The rain was descending harder and barder, and Ira‘; sent a sizzling shot straight at short. It looked certain | to be the eirhty-ninth double play of | the season, but just as Ch Man was reaching for the ball it hit some tn- | equality in the ground, burdled ter feet over Chap's head, and the run- ners were safe on first and second, and a tic,’ and perhaps a victory, loomed iarge. Plpp tried hard, but fouled out, and at that interesting Jancture the rain pounded down so hard that the combat was stopped, enty to resumed fifteen minutes later with Caldwell at bat, because | Bodie had sprung a hovk or bowed a| tendon and compelled . mift in the eutheld. The wet ball appeared to handicap Coveleskie a bit, and the first ball he pttched after the shower | Caldwell hit a mile a minute over Mrs base There was just a crack | ‘that sounded as !f one comedian had over just as the slapstick | | wang. It pounded like a two-base hit, but Johnston jumped, dragged @ewn the ball and hope died. Phere never was a real chance after fet, although in the ninth Peck and! Baker hit screaming drives to the outfield, forcing Wood and Speaker te make fine catches to stop them. Cleveland did little with Finveran, @ouch he was wild at times. They their lone run in the third, when Creloncie ripped a hit throngh Fin- meran and Chapman and Speaker fol- jowed with clean hits. The Indians bad more and better chances to goore than did the Yanks, but save in that fatal Instance they too fell down in the pinches, Finneran pitching fine ‘The tuck of baseball seldom was better filustrated than in that seventh inning, when the Yanks failed in the pinch. Peck was on first when Pratt's aingie hurdied over Chapman. Any fast man would have gone from first to third on that hit. Had runners been on first and third when Caldwell came to bat Johnston would have been compelled to play on top of first base 60 as to hold up the runner. As it was he was free to play back, Had he been playing on first base Cald- walls lino drive, which he caught would bave cone over his head an into right field for a two-bagger, Thu the value of speed on a ball club i illustrated. Mar sara was continual Jangting during the game between Um- pire Connolly and the Cleveland players because of Finneran's piteh- img Once he threatened to chase | Speaker off the field. The kicking, | fm @ quiet way, continued through | the contest. The ¢ land players | were objecting to Finneran's use of | the “mud ball,” and this is the time | to mention some of the pitching that fs going on. This spring both the National and American Leagues an- nounced loudly that they were going te stop the use of camouflage in baseball, They were going to stop the use of the shine ball, the emery the grease ball, and they even ‘ed of stopping the spit ball.

It might be used in food tion by planting gardenias on s. > of it, He had a young gar- turned on Boston and recovered al! the ground that they lost in the pre- ceding day's offensive, ‘The Giants did not tose without a struggle. They were off bad, fought thetr way back to a tie, grabbed the Jead and then sltpped and allowed the Pirates to tle them up tn the ninth and lost out in tho extra session. The Giants are showing weakness in a spot where the weakness was re- vealed in March by a study of the dope. They have always looked weak in catching when the figures were ex- amined. If they could manage to combine the strong points of Rariden and SicCarty in one man they might ing, vital weaknesses appear. It aas deen the theory of the Giant manage- ment that the hitting ability of th two would cover up their weaknesse: in other respects, but of late neither all, which makes nore apparent. The chances nts return thelr weaknesses are that when the to the Polo Grounds ney will bring with them a new atcher., Smith of the Buffalo Cluo jv tipped as one of the greatest you catchers that has come on to the bases ball horizon in @ long time. Chicago and two other clubs have been bid- ding high for the youngster, yet the uffalo Club has voluntarily given McGraw the first chance at the youngster, Chicago, having secured Tom Clarke from the Yanks, probably will not bid again for Smith. It was steep for the Giant management, but Smith may be the catcher who wil! relieve the situation The Giants evidently are fighting for games and hustling better than they have been for a month or more, and the prophecy that they will do much better on the present Western trip than they did on the tast stil stands. Speaking of eatchers, Wolters's throwing since he supplanted Hanna in the regular work has been fright- ful. He threw very badly in yester day's game, seeming to lack force and direction. In one instance he was not to be blamed, because he was badly interfered with by the batter stepping in front of him as he threw. BROOkLrN lost again to the Reds who seem to have revived, but at that the Superbas have cause to rejoice. Hy Myers has reconsidered his case of disgust and rejoined the team, and Nixon, who was with the Dodgers once before, will rejoin at once, giving Robinson a big force of outfielders. It ts well that the Reds are doing a bit better, as the fans and the scribes of Cincinnati are now riding Mathew- son hard, and blaming him for the poor showing of the team. It looks ‘as if Matty will wish before long that he had accepted that Y. M. C, A. offer and gone to France.
