SPORTING COMMENT
BY T. D. BONNEVILLE.
At the very beginning of the season
the Colts find themselves in a critical
position for want of pitchers. From
a promising beginning, all through
the training season, and even through
the first series of games, it has now
developed that the staff is woefully
weak, and unless there is a strong
addition in a short time there will
be little chance for the locals to get
in the race.
Of the five twirlers now on the
staff only three of them seem to bi
in form or to possess that combina
tion of pitchers' accomplishment*
that go to make a slab artist worth}
of the name. Verbout is beyond
question the strongest of the lot hi
this time, and gives promise of main
taining his position for some time to
come. Although he lost Saturday *
game after a display of his usuai
good form, he was the victim of cir
cumstances. going in to try to save
the game when only one day had in
tervened since he twirled ten inningi
Thursday, holding his opponents tc
five hits and one run. With two use
less twirlers sitting on the bench, h
seemed unfair that Verbout should be
called upon to work again, and tc
have the defeat charges against him
Revelle, in both of the games ir
which he has worked at home, has
performed well, and has not allowed
a tally, but In one of the Portsmouth
games he was bumped hard. As al
ways. he is regarded as one of th<
mainstays of the Colts, and little ap
prehension is felt concerning him.
Hale, who proved an easy marl
for the Crew Saturday, started oul
well in his first game, and may yei
prove of value to the locals. On las'
Friday he blanked Danville, allow
ing only one to reach second base
and keeping the six hits well scatter
ed. It may be that he had an off da}
Saturday, and will do better when h«
works again.
Of the other two members of th<
staff, but little is to be said. Ohl
the southpaw secured from Washing
ton, .worked against Portsmouth
Tuesday and allowed ten hits, losing
ms kiuijf. rae nus not oeen iriea since
Peterson, who started out so wel
during the training season, ha* beet
of no value to the club, and has beet
batted hard whenever worked. Tha
these men were not put In to rellevt
Hale Saturday, when neither Revelli
nor Verbout was lit to work, is th<
best evidence that they are of iltth
value to the club.
Although Manager Lawlor is con
fined to his hotel with a spralnec
ankle, he Is well able to size up con
dltions and to judge tha weak spo
In his team. It may be expected that
in view of developments in eonnec
tlon with the pitching staff of th<
Colts, there will be an addition at n<
distant day. With only Verbout. Re
velle and probably Hale going well
it Is necessary' to have another twirl
er quickly, and this man Is doubtlesi
forthcoming.
Peterson and Ohl will very prob
ably be given another chance eacl
during the present series in Roanoke
and If they are still unable to twir
in form, one or both of them wit
be released as soon,, as another pitch
er can be found.
Lawlor has been unsuccessful it
his efforts to land a good left-ham
pitcher, something that he -partlcu
larly desired on his staff. The othei
clubs In the league have beerf mori
fortunate. Hanks, of Danville, am
Walker, of Norfolk, are among thi
best twirlers In the league. Unles;
he can find a very promising left
hander, it Is probable that Lawloi
will hold Ohl a while longer ant
endeavor to get him into form.
Under the present conditions, some
thing must be done soon, since th<
two twirlers who are going well mus
not be called upon to do more that
their share of the work, or was th<
case with Verbout Saturday. Whet
strained In this manner the tw’irleri
are likely to be incapacitated foi
some time to come, and in the case!
of the two best men this must bi
avoided, even at the cost of games.
It WoOld seeth that'Veterans of th<
game of baseball would be familial
with the rules ^governing the sport
especially those veterans who man
age clubs and are empowered to loot
opt for their Interest# during chant
plonship contests. Vet such is not
the case, as It ts at times surprisingly
demonstrated what a little some of
them know about the game by which;
they make their living year after year
That one should not be familiar with
the changes and additions to the rules
as made by the Joint rules commit- j
j tee this spring and adopted by the
National Baseball ommlssion Is still
more surprising.
In announcing that he would pro
test Saturday's game because the held
umpire rendered a. decision at third
base in that game, Manager Winne
I Clarke, of the Norfolk team, display
ed flagrant ignorance of a rule upon
which great stress la placed in the
late changes and additions.
I Clarke made this announcement In
the seventh inning, when Wallace was
declared safe by Field Umpire Travis
in stealing third base. Under the
rules it was distinctly the duty oi ;
Umpire Travis, a» field umpire, to!
render the decision on the play.
in defining the duties of the field
I umpire the rules say that he shall
! render all decisions at first base and
.second base, and all decisions at third
base, except those to be made by the
umpire in chief, who, In Saturday s
game, was Umpire Fender. The ex
I captions to the field umpire's juris
I diction at third base are as follows:
i The umpire in chief shall render base
decisions in the following instances:
(1) If the ball is hit fair, with a
! runner on first, he must go to third
base to take a possible decision;; (2>
witn more than one base occupied he
shall decide whether or not a run
ner on third leaves that base before
a fly ball is caught; (3) in case of
, a runner being caught between third
I and home, when more than one base,
its occupied, he shall make the de-'
cision on the runner nearest the home
1 i plate.
j None of these exceptions have any
bearing on the decision rendered by
Umpire Travis in Saturday's game.
Wallace was the only man on base

BARTON HEIGHTS WIN
FROM JOHN MARSHALL
Close and Interesting Gamb Play
ed Between Two Teams on
Saturday Afternoon.
Barton Height* defeated th* fast .
team of the John Marshall High
School Saturday on Battery Court dia
mond by the aoore of 8 to 7. Barton
Heights had everything it* own way
up to the eighth Inning, when the
visitors made six runs. In this In- 1
ning, with one man out and three men
on oases, with the score 8 to 7, Cot
trell, the fast third baseman, came
to the bat, and hit a hot one that
looked ilke a hit, but Baldwin made
a very beautiful one-handed catch and
doubled up Lipscomb at third. The
feature of the game was the fast dou- |
ble of Baldwin and Rady. The pitch
ing of Baldwin and Van Belt was j
also a feature.
Barton Height* plays the fa*t i

Monday’s Schedule.
1 Richmond at Roanoke.
Lynchburg at Norfolk.
Portsmouth at Danville.
Norfolk broke even on the
here by taking Saturday’s game la a
heartbreaking finish. Score, 1 to 1
Carl Walker, the local boy, was on the
slab for the visitors and was foand
for tsn hits, one of them a triple and
two doubles. He was given miserable
support throughout, five errors of com
mission and many of omission being
made.
Hale, who blanked DanviUe in last
Friday's game, started to twirl for
Richmond, and before the first Inning
oft day. The flrat man up singled and
■cored on an Infield out and a single.
In the second he escaped without a
tally being made, but in the third he
was found for four successive singles
and passed one, netting three runs.
Verbout Sent In.
With none out and two men on bate.
Verbout, who twirled ten Innings
against the Crew In Thursday's game,
; was sent Into relieve Hale. Ha started
out strong, retiring the first three men
i who faced him and leaving tww oa
I base. Verbout twirled In excellent style
: until the eighth, allowing one single
! and only two Tars going to first and
f one es far as second.
in the eighth, however, Verbout
weakened and two doubles, two singles
and two hit batsmen resulted, netting
three runs for the visitors and giving
them a lead of one run. It eras only
by luck that Verbout retired the aide
without a score in the ninth. He was
i so exhausted from his hard work of
; Thursday and from the extra duty
: Imposed on hjm Saturday that In the
] last inning he was barely able to ds
I liver the ball to the plate and seemed
| to bave completely loet his usual good
; control. He passed three and filled the
i bases, but one batter hit to LandgrmfiC.
.'mother to Baker and the last one flew
out to Wallace.
Walker's Bad Start.
While It Is true that Walker dljl not
receive the beat of support, his twirl
ing »ji not of the order that wins
same*. Four free pusses, a triple, two
doubles and seven stuglas Is enough
to win any ordinary game. The local
boy escaped by means of a double play
In tbe first Inning, but In the second ha
passed two, was found for a triple and
a single and threw wild to first In an
effort t6 catch Shaw. This netted the
Colts four runs, which seemed to be
enough to win until Hale blew up In
the third.
After missing good chances to score
i In both the third and fourth Innings,
the locale tallied again In the fifth on
a double and two singles. In the sev
enth they added another on Baker's
single, Walace's double and Tltman's
single. Walker tightened up In the
eighth and ninth and gave hls only ex
hibition of twirling during the game.
Brown reached first on an error In
the ninth, but was caught stealing
third. Baker went to first on Mur
dock's error in the ninth and was left.
The game was featureless except for
two uouoie piays executea oy Messitt
and Blgble for one, and by Baker un
assisted tor the other, when he cap
tured Boonner’e line drive In the
fourth and caught Munson off sec
