Giants Move Up Into Thick of Race by Capturing Two Games [ I ___________________________ _ _ _ Yankees Beat the Two Tallest Pitchers Lowdermilk and Weilman Do Then Best but Browns Bow Twice, to the Joy of Donovan, Caldwell, Fisher and Col. Ruppert. By HEYWOOD BROUN. 1'avid. Jack, the men of I.illiput, and Joe Tinker have all established the fact that giants are the easiest of prey if properly approached Branch Rickey sent the tallest pitchers of the big leagues against th? Yankees yesterday, and both were defeated. Lowdermilk is hardly six feet five, but Weilman towers above him, They looked for all the world like weeds which had sprung up in the middle of Henry Fabian's diamond during the recent heavy rains. Not that they were rank, mind you, for the Yankees defeated the Wool worthian pair only with difficulty. The score of the first game ffil .1 to 1, in favor of the Yankees, and the second went against the Browns, r.lso, by a score of _ to 0. Caldwell, who run? a bit to longitude himself, accounted for the first game, and Kay Fisher, who is much more squat, accounted for the second. Branch Rickey, the manager of the Browns, made temperance an i?sue long before Bryan ever thought of it. The Browns do not drink or smoke or gamble. In spite of these restrictions Rickey numbers many collegian.- among his players. Sisler. the remarkable young pitcher from the University of Michigan, took part in both games. When a pitcher comes from college to professional ranks he is usually expected to do no more than pitch, and hardly that, but so well did Michigan prepare Sisler that he has been utilized as a first baseman on the days he can get leave of Absence from the box. Although he did not put him into action Rickey brought along his young pitching sensation named Koob, who has been limericked with "boob" in every major league city in the country. On the face of the returns the day of two successes war? a triumph for Bill Donovan, Ray Caldwell and Ray Fisher, but it meant much more to Col? onel Ruppert. The colonel is always pleaned when his team wins, but a double triumph over total abstainers is no ordinary vieto?y. Brewers have done a lot with Wash? ington, end Jefferson and Petal Revere in their advertising, but not one has \et conceived the startling etTertiv? ne?s of confronting the public with a flop-art such as "The St. Louis Browns do not drink how about you?" Right now the Browns are probably the strongc-t anti-temperance argument in the country. Profiting hv two days of idleness Bill Donovan got th? last cripple ba the trame again, Peckinpatigh retornad to abort and Boone diaplsced Paddy Baumann at second. The old infield, which showed so much brilliancy at the beginning of the year, was together again, him! I Red it? composition by some exceedingly sh*rp play. I n tl'uestionably Bauman is a better ha'ter than Boon?, bol il -eems a shame to disturb the balance of such a nice ad ju?tment of defensive mechanirism. The Browns took the lead in the sec? ond inning of the flrsl game. Walsh doubled to left and came home on a ungle by Johnny Lavan. In the thirdj the Yankee? aei the pace by scoring twice. Nunamaker walked, and ('aid-' well's hit sent him to third. Higl lowed with another hit, and Nunamsk rr crossed the plate. Peek'? safety filled ?he bases, and when Ma..- ! added th? fourth consecutive single of the inning Caldwell came home. Right here the rally we? badly muddled, for. Peck overrsn second base and wsa put out, and when Pipp flied to Walker High ? led at the plate on an excellent throw. Twe iwever, sufficed, si though th? Brown? threatened ''aid well now and again thereafter. 'I he t-eventh 4\h- th? mo?1 ?langerons inn? ing, bol the ? entii ely of Caldwell'a making. Walsh singled and : Agneiv w n Peckinpaugh's fumble. Weilman singled, and while Pipp absent-mindedly held the ball Walah alinoi ? cored A tardy, bol | otherwise perfect, throw from the big firvr baseman to Nunamaker headed of the runner ar the plate. Seeing that a one-run lead wai per- I hups too .?mall a margin, rhe Yankee? added a count to *'-.< i core in the lat? ter half of the seventh. Boon? walked, Nunamaker singled, and Caldwell walked, tilling the bases, Ugh hit to Lavan, who threw to the plate in time to force Boone. Peckinpangh flied to Shot ten and Nonamakei scored. For ihe 1!. o ? ' - ?ighl h and went a!l the way to third on two fumble ? Cre? There were twe onl ? t the time, and the runner wa- lift when Brait flied OUI to tree. In the second game the Brown? did their hitting early and then stopped, or rather Fisher stopped them. Shotton ?in**led in 'he Aral inning, and Pratl tripled at the beginning of the second, but thereafter there waa no hitting by the visitor eventeen men who faced Ray Piahei went out in order. The triple in the second inning crime with no ?me out, hut Fisher managed to escape without allowing a inn. Sweeney made a Bne catch of Walker'? foul close to r ne stand.

SALLEE IS STRONG IN THE PINCHES Cutshaw Deals Bad Blow to H:s Team's Chances by Getting Caught Off First. [Hi Telegraph to Th? Tribun? 1 St. Louis, Au*?. B. The Brooklyn Su perbaa are wonders in their own home town, but unfortunately the National League schedule is so arranged that one-half the games must be played on foreign diamonds. Just now tho So? perbas are far from Flatnush, and the effect of travelling is apparent in their efforts on the diamond. 1*00, you guessed it; they were beat? en again to-day, this time by the St. Louis Cardinals, and the score was 3 to 2. They are still tied for third place with the Boston Braves, but the shado.v of the (liants, who peer with anxious ?'mm tit'th position, only f.iur points back, looms across their path. It was not for lack of opportunity that the Superbas were beaten. As a matter of fact, they made just twice aa many hits as the Cardinals, but th?y (rare scattered hither and thither with profliga'e hand. It was the ex? ception, indeed, when Brooklyn did not have at l??a?-t nne runner on bases. Here is a little problem for the stu? dents of the game: The Superbas mad-? ten hits and got only two runs, and the Cardinal? made only 50 per cent that numbei of hits, but score?! one more run. What la 'he answer? The Superbas were at their worst in the second inning, when four perfectly good, serviceable hits wrre made in aucceaaion, and not. a run rewarded the valiant clubbers. I'nitod St. Loui.? I shed its overcoats and thankeil George Cutahavw for Ins kindness. To him they ' doubtless owe the fact that extra inn Hiir-i were not played. He started tho rumpus in the second inning, and was straightaway pi?-ked off first bas??, caught flat footed by Sallee's snap i to Miller. Three hits then fol? lowed IB order. Sallee deserves not a little credit for his work in th:s frame, for with only one out he fanned Sherro.l Smith, ?hi is not a weak hitter, and got Hy Myers rather easily. Well begun is half done, is one of childhood's rnottoe?. One good inning often wins a ball game, is Miller Hug ?T-111>'- watchword. The Superbas started off with a flourish of trumpets and got a lead of two runs. Haubert'?, single in the first scored O'Mara, and Wheat's drive in the third also drove the short? stop home. The third inning saw the Cardinals. win the game. They got to Smith for a volley of hits and pushed three run? ners over the plate. Sallee singled to centre. Bescher was hit, and then came a wild pitch. Miller's single and an error by Myers which were good for two of the tallies. Long singled, scor? ing the third and last run.

Boston, Aug. 5. -Bill James, one of the three pitchers who figured in the Braves' sensational climb in the Na? tional League race last season, will be of no assistance to the team in its tight to regain the leadership during ' the next month. President Gaffney announced to I night that James had been suspended at his own request, in order that he t might go to his home, in Seattle, Wash., and rest his pitching arm. Experts who have examined the arm say that only by a complete rest can it be brought back to form. President Gaffney also announced the release of Maurice Shannon, who played with Villa Nova College, the past season, to the Rochester Interna? tional League club.
