The Greatest Baseball Game
Ever Played On This Date
By B. E. JARRETT
MAY 15, 1918
JOHNSON BEAT WILLIAMS IN GREAT EIGHTEEN
INNING 1 TO 0 DUEL AT WASHINGTON
Walter Johnson had been turning the White Sox back without the
semblance of a fun for eighteen Innings, and Claude Williams had been
duplicating tfels feat for seventeen frames, the fans having long since
settled back In their seats expecting the game to continue in this tenor
until darkness Intervened.
At this critical stage of the proceedings Williams made an unfor
tunate blunder which gave the game to Washington 1 to ().
With one gone in the Senators’ half of the eighteenth, Alnsmlth
singled; Johnson also singled, Ainsmith taking third, then with two strikes
on Shotton, Williams let one sail over Schalk’s head, Ainsmith scoring
the winning run.
Nice Pitching
Chicago bunched two hits in the first oil Johnson, but, he allowed no
more than one In any other inning. Williams permitted onyl eight hits,
granting none prior to the seventh inning. Only three passes were issued
by them. Walter not giving his bit of free transportation until the
fourteenth.
NOTH: This is the longest 1 to 0 pitchers’ battle in the history of
major league baseball, anly only 35 longer games have been played.

BENGE BEATEN
AT BOSTON AS
PIRATES CLICK
“Seven Inning Pitcher”
Also Hurt By Lack of
Support in Outfield
Boston, May 15. (UP)—Their
dreams of "crashing" the first divi
sion temporarily spiked, the Boston
Bees reclined in sixth place today
because little Ray Benge—a good
seven-inning pitcher if there ever
was one—still lacked the stamina
to hold through those crucial last
two innings.
Benge, who had emerged unscath
ed in four previous starts by retiring
early, lingered a moment too long
yesterday. When he withdrew in the
eighth, the score was Bees 2, Pirates
1, with the winning runs on base.
Ben Contwell failed to stop the
threat, and the Pirates won 5 to 2.
Hard Luck
Benge's downfall was attributed In
part to the absence of Wally Berger
fast-moving center fielder. Rube
Thompseon, a stride or two slower
than Berger, Just missed reaching
Paul Waner's hard eighth-inning
smash. It went for a triple to score
one run and start the five-run rally.
Benge had pitched superb ball
during the first seven innings, scat
tering six Pirate hits. He fanned
five batsmen, taking hard-hitting
Brubaker's measure twice in a row.
While Benge was going down to
his firs tdefeat, Lefty Grove was
staging a comeback for the Red
Sox out In Detroit, after blowing
Sunday's game in Washington. Lefty
muzzled the Tigers with flvo hits
and a single run, to win his sixth
victory, 3 to 1.
Only once did the uncanny south
paw let the world champions gang
up on him. In the second Ooose
Ooslin singled and trotted home on
Gerald Walker's long double—the
only Tigers run scored against “Ole
Mose" this season.
Opportunity
The Sox, held to seven hits by
Elden Auker, bunched four of their
safeties in the fourth lnlng. when
two runs scored. Helnle Manush
was the big gun with two doubles,
driving in the initial run in the first
and starting the fourth inning drive.
Yesterday’s games ended both
Bees and Red Sox series. The gas
house gang from St. Louis now In
vades Bosotn, to avenge the Bees
2 to 1 series triumph at St. Louis.
The Red Sox move on to Cleveland.
Tiny Chaplin or Wayne Osborne
was to start for the Bees, Chaplin
being favored by virtue of his nine
inning victory over the Dodgers
Sunday. The Red Sox expected to
start Johnny Marcum.
Grammar School
Teams Score 75
Runs In 4 Games
Something of a record was estab
lished In the four scheduled games
of the local grammar schools’ base
ball league minor division yesterday
when a grand total of 75 runs were
registered. Chase beat Hopevllle 7-0;
Hendrlcken triumphed over Bunker

Abbott 14-1 and Anderson defeated
Park Road 22-5.
Sixteen Hopevllle batters went
back via the strikeout route before
the offerings of Heaton, pitcher for
Chase, who In addition to serving
them up, belted out two long hits
that aided the cause. Kelly of the

Rumors And Reality Gathered From '
This Sporting World
By JOHN A. CLUNEY
The Grift Of Athletic Conteet
Peeking at the Preakneta
A dozen or so hlgh-aplrlted three-year-olds will run for the best part
of (36,000 tomorrow afternoon at Baltimore, with the big question In
everyone’s mind being—Can Bold Venture repeat his Kentucky Derby
runnlng7
Z think he can and will pick him to take the one milo and three-six
teenths run In close to record tune—if the track is fast, and, as the boys
on the racing sheets say, he has no "mishaps.” Oeorgle Woolf has been
named to ride him and that, too Is O. K. by me. In fact, I would rather
see Woolf In the saddle than Workman, whom O. V, Whitney prevented
from guiding the great son of Bt. Germans, and blood relative of
Twenty Orand.
Bold Venture's time for the Derby at Ohurohlll Downs was, as Z
remember It—2:06:03, was second or third BEST time In the history
of the 00 year old horse race. This, despite some interference at the
start when Granville and Brevity got "the works." There will be no
Brevity against Bold Venture tomorrow.
However, Z look for Oranvllle to push the Schwarts colt to the limit.
This time veteran Jimmy Stout will not be knocked off his mount. It
may be someone else's turn, but I doubt If there will be any funny bus
iness at all, due to the edict of the Maryland Racing Commission which
promises the severest kind of penalty to any Jockey found guilty of rough
riding. That may be a Shanghai gesture, but It should have Its desired
effect. Therefore, I expect a nice, clean race, with a minimum of bumping
and the best horse to win the race.
He Did, Mrs. Silas S. Mason’s splendid animal will probably
force the pace up to the mile mark, though I doubt if he can last to
win during the last eighth of a mile. Delphinium will be right up
there too, while Bow and Arrow, who may turn out to be another
Bradley “dark horse" and Memory Book ought to make things Inter
esting for Bold Venture—while they last.
