Tans Who Condemn the Tigers for
V Taking Chances On the Paths
Should Indulge in Retrospection.
By PAUL H. BRUBKE.
Opposed by a personally raascotted,
unbeaten pitcher, the Tigers opened
their series in New York yesterday
by dropping a very one-sided game
to tho Stallings aggregation, thus giv
ing Bddie Summers his third defeat
out of nine appearances in the box.
and enabling the lowly tall-enders of
last year’s race to work their way into
•ecoari position, where it is now in
their power to pass the Tigers in the
three more games to be played In the
metropolis, provided the Champs lose
them all.
That is the way, at any rate, that
they are doping it in New York. On
the other hand Detroit bugs refuse to
regard 4he New York team as serious
contender* for the flag, and would pre
fer seeing.them in a threatening posi
tion than any other club In the league
with the possible exception of Wash
ington i )r
Calesthenics for Summers.
Beyond a doubt Eddie Summers fol
lowed up his losing game by a renew
ed zeal in the department of home
cghtfltpenics. Such ,at any rate has
been his habit on similar occasions
this year. Eddie believes he is too
fat All season he has been worrying
over his increase in weight and. after
hia failure here to stop the Athletics
he aakea and received from Trainer
Tathill a long series of physical exer
cises tending to reduce the weight at
the point* where it aeemed to be in
creasing.
those who know Summers' tall,
tfeptjl-pick frame, his anxiety over ex
tra weight would appear superfluous.
But he is in earnest about it. and will
not be content until his slender, sylph
like waist is regained. In the mean
time, however, he has won six out of
the nine games he has twirled, so the
weight-acquisition is not fatal at any
, rate.
Manning In Form.
Manning, who twirled the game for
New York, was making his first start !
•gainst the Tigers. His curve ball
was as effective as In former seasons
•nd the fact that Stallings is not mak
ing as p>M p h use of him as Griffith did.:
seems to agree better with the twtrl
er‘» peculiar, arm-snapping delivery, j
Tour hits he allowed, Mclntyre. Craw
ford, Cobb and Schaefer getting one
each. On the other hand. Summers
was spanked fbr punches in two
stages and the combat and gave way
to Works at the end. the latter allow
lng no more scoring. Keeler. Cree
and Engle were the chief murderers.
The score was 5 to 1.
Schaefer was back at second base j
and fielded nicely. Rossman batted
far Summers in the eighth and sent a
•harp ground ball to Manning. Beck
•adorf was injected into the proceed
ings with Works and his New York
frlenda pulled off a presentation which |
Included a suit case, a traveling set
and some other debris.
Jennings would like to send Wild
Bill Donovan to the mound today, and
Will probably do so if Bill is right,
fc'Willett and Suggs are the other possi
bilities. In all probability the Tigers;
.will have to face Wilson, the lithe lit
(.■‘tie left-hander. Up to date the east
ern series has been an even break for
the men of Jennings, though the

departure from their home ball yard

summary of the whole trip up to date.

HERE ARE THE CARS NOW ENGAGED IN THAT 4,000
MILE DASH FROM NEW YORK TO PACIFIC COAST
rORD- nCthAfllL JrtlTH.
Boston Still Raging
Over the Rough Tiges
The Boston writers are still throw
ing fits over the way the Tigers romp
ed on the frames of the Redsox while
In the supposed center of culture and
New England cookery. The game of
Friday still lives as the most up-to
date and thrilling topic or conversa
tion. apparently and the write rooters
who Imagined they saw In Boston s
brief opening sprint a return of the
days when Beantown was the site of a
real champion, are getting rid of their
disappointment by taking It out on the
Tigers.
Charlie Schmidt. Tiger backstop. Is
catching It right merrily. On that day,
it will be recalled, he refused to get
out of the way of Wagner, who was
trying to score a run, and merely pit
ted his burly frame against spikes and
whatever else was coming his way.
Mr. Wagner left the field of play with
a hip dragging somewhat. Mr.
Schmidt resumed catching, and short
ly after cleaned up with a swell home
run.
Harken to the Boston Traveler as
It gets going in Schmidt s direction:
When a l>all player who is trying
hard to make a noise like a real
star who ought to get an increase
In salary because his team-mates
won a pennant or despite his pres
ence on the outfit, is a partial
Joke as a catcher and 1s a huge
joke as a thrower, he has got to
do something to get by. Schmidt
of Detroit gets by by hitting and
using his spikes.
* Lord has made Schmidt look
like a bush leaguer every time he
has got on bases so far this year
and Schmidt secured partial re
venge by * le-stepplng on his way
i to third far enough to plunge his
steel spikes Into Lord's ankle.
Also the remark that he made
when he went to the Tiger bench
that "If those speed boys don t
want to get hurt they can get off
the field." had been merely for the
edification of his fellow players,
and wasn't intended for the ears
of those who were supposed to
think that the spiking had been an
accident.
When Wagner was hurt at the
l plate because Schmidt plunged
down on him and half dislocated
his hip it was a close play and
was nat altogether Schmidt's
fault. The Tiger carthorse catch
er fell like a lump of lead be
cause that was the only way he
knew of to get a man at the plate.
There was some baseball in the
contest at that. Lord made some
hair-raising plays and Cobb scor
ed the only run of the game by a
brilliant bit of daring that was
worth the price of admission
alone. It was a dash for home
on a short passed ball, and Mor
gan. who was surprised Into an
Imitation of a stick by the daring,
let Cobb In unmolested.
And Tv Cobb! Oh! Tyrus Is catch
ing it. too. Remarks Paul H. Shan
non In the Boston Post, In reviewing
the same game: *
In the fourth inning, an after
math of last year's bitter feeling
between Morgan and Cobb was
evidenced when Cobb took advan
tage of a wild pitch by Morgan
and fame tearing In from second
for the plate. Morgan covered the
plate .-aid the throw came back
from lionahue in time to catch his
man. But Morgan caught a
g.irnpse of the gleaming spikes as
| Cobb slid and made no attempt to
tag him In time.
It may be remembered last year
that Morgan strtirk out Cobb
twice in a game and this so em
bittered the Detroit favorite that
h*» challenged Morgan to cover
first base the next time that he
came to bat. offering to "tear
Morgan’s shins open.” Morgan
pcrhai s remembered this wdien he
covered the plat** yesterday and
wisely ra<rained from going on the
hospital list with the other crip
ples.\

DAY, GATHERED FOR THE DETROIT TIMES
the visiting Tigers made the lo
cals easy for Jennings' men.
And meanwhile the players on
the bench, men who were
taking no part in the game, were
urging their fellow-Tigers to
"Jump on them" and "tear them
up.’’ Reckless of what Injuries
they might cause the Boston men
they continually advised the De
troit players when they were on
the bases to use every means, fair
or foul, to down the game but
crippled Red Sox team.
But Tim Murnane. the veteran writ
er of the Boston Globe and supposed
ly the mouthpiece of the Boston club
—where was Tim all this time?
But one remark appears in the col
umns where he holds sway and here
It Is:
The Tigers did not play any
thing but hard baseball und the
kind It takes nerve to stop.
TEST FOR GARDNER.
Alleged Welterweight Will Make 142
Pounds for This Go.
BOSTON, Mass, June 7. —Whether
Jimmy Gardner and Tommy Quill
have any right to claim to be welter
weights and to box for the title will
be determined tomorrow night. They
are to box 11! rounds here tomorrow
night, and their agreements call for
them to weigh in at 142 pounds. Both
boxeis claim that they are now at the
weight and will have no trouble In
keeping there, but it is the impression
of many of the fans that Gardner will
not be strong If he does make the
weight.
On the other hand, Gardner's
friends assert Quill will have his trou
ble keeping to the weight, but Jack
Desmond, who is training Quill at
Northboro for the event, writes that
Quill will be as strong as an ox at
the weight and to look for a surprise.
9culler Greer Now Training.
Frank Greer, the American rowing
champion, has recovered from the ef
fects of a surgical operation and is
training hard for the annual meeting
at Detroit. It is said he will enter the
professional ranks right after the na
tional regatta, in order to meet Dur
nail, the Canadian champion and
nephew- of the noted Edward Hanlon.

NEW YORK, June 7 —“Kid"
Elberfeld, the Yankees’ third
baseman, does not figure that
any of the western team*, ex
cepting Detroit, will land In the
first division this year. He be
lieves that the present eastern
trips of the western division will
prove this, as he does not look
for Cleveland, St. Louis or Chi
cago to win mun> games on the
trip
"The eastern teams have ad
vanced In clans since last year,
while the western teams, bar
ring Detroit have deteriorated."
says the Tobasco one. "The
**as*ern teams bear them in the
west, and they should mak** even
a better showing when they
come east. Os course, Detroit
has a splendid team and will
always be hard to beat, but even
the Tigers are apt to have their
troubles this trip.”
