JUNE 12, 1912 Sickening Slump Toward Last Place Goes Steadily and Sadly On CRACKERS DROP TWO; ARE NOW NEXT TO LAST By Percy H. Whiting. rpHE Crackers dropped l«o | Kames nearer oblivion here yesterday afternoon and the Vols out down a Kood big section of the gap that separates them from the cellar exit. A couple more afternoons like that and the Crackers will be as utterly and en tirely last as they ever got during the depressing days of 1911. The scores in yesterday after noon's engagements were R to n and 5 Io 4. If there were an alibi for the Crackers we d never print it. They deserved all they got, and more. Vet symapthy should be extend ed Io the two Cracko: pitchers. They deserved better than they got. The unspeakably putrescent fielding of the Cracker club paved the way or actually caused mo«t of the Volunteer runs. Every now and then a club Is entitled to pull a game that is un speakably bad. But the Crackers overstepped all bounds by pulling two in the same afternoon, it was ,i "bi.ieous" performance. • « • epHIS gentle hammer throwing * Isn't intended to act as a scoop, to shovel away any of the credit that the tail-enders deserve for taking a double-header from the semi-tail-endei'S. The Nashville team, though it made a good lot of mistakes, was a world series per former compared with Atlanta. The. Vols were able to take advantage of every mistake and to get nil that was coming to them on the Cracker misplays. At the same time nobody who saw the game will deny that It was more a case of the Crackers kick ing it away than of the Volunteers winning it. • • • THE Crackers began theii rough work in the first Inning, when O'Brien perpetrated an error, but nothing happened that counted un til the fourth. We have no morbid intentions of going into all the sad details, hut this fourth inning is a sam ple .lames grounded to East, who missed it Lindsay bunted down the first base line and O’Dell fell in attempting to field iff Wel chonce dropped one in front of the plate and Graham mussed up the play. With tile bases full. Young let one down easy in front of the plate Graham recovered it. touched the plate and threw to first, coni p oling a double. Perry then sent .< slow one down to Dessau and ben' it to firs' for a scratch hit, and Lindsay scored Schwartz hit another one and Welchonce and Perry tallied the latter making it all around from first to the plate on a slow single to Hemphill. That was tire war the whole aft ernoon went. In the seventh when the Vols added their other three Des'au allowed a •sc on balls and o Brien perpetrated an error before any damage was done, xfier that | came a couple of real bl's and tlr was ended Xgainst <'ase the < rackers w<-ig helpless. The only time' they did hit him it netted them nothing In the eighth a three haggci by Hemphill was followed Immediately by a single by Callahan, y et Hemp lull < ouldn't ‘■core. of cotffe. Cal lahan's effort wa< a scratch to the infield The Crackers were sore as fro zen crabs, at the umpires, but that didn't get them anything. \n<4 it is more than likely that they could have umpired the game themselves and yet not won it. -pH E sec ond game was quite as 1 hopelessly w retched as the first, | only if was more exciting, for the Vols pulled a few erro •«, and as Bair was wild, the Crackers were in the hunt. Tommy \tkin- piti hed for Mian ta. ami. as has been the case al most every time the Ohio wonder I We Have a Mysterious Dame in the Case has worked since he joined the < 'racket s last season, the elub just refused to win for him. Every inning in which the Vols scored a run off Atkins an error figured. Young, the first man who scored, got safe on O’Dell’s error. East helped Storch around, after lie had singled, wdth a- wild throw. Lindsay, the third man who scored, lived on one error and advanced on another. Despite the bad fielding of Ihe locals, the game entered the tenth inning with the score tied. 4 and 4. Glenn pulled something unexpect ed by opening the tenth with an in field grounder which ho beat out do you all get that'.' Jumbo Glenn, the baby road rollrr. beat out an infield tap that was perfectly han dled! Well, after that ANYTHING could happen. Bair sacrificed the giant along to second, and then Storch smacked out a single that sent across the winning run. It may' be mentioned that in the ninth Hemphill took out Atkins. Apparently it was to let Sykes bat. COULON IN “SUSPICIOUS" FIGHT WITH FRANK HAYS NEW HAVEN. CONN, .lune 12. Johnny Coulon. of Chicago, the ban tamweight champion, figured in a fight with Eranklie Hay s, of St. Louis, which fans looked upon as a fake.
