INSPIRED TRIBE SPANKSAUGUSTA 9TO2AND7TOI TUOKET AND MOORE LEAD WAY IN SAVANNAH FIELD DAY Savannah came back in the fin als of their four game series with the fast’ stepping Augusta Tigers yesterday jat the Stadium and cop ped both ends of a double header, 9-2 and. 7-1. Playing heads-up ball that had the stands standing in their seats, the Indians played the class bill of the league in their amazing comeback. It pot exactly errorless base ball. but the Indians more than make up lor this deliquency in their slugging the ball to the four corners-pf the lot.

The eecond game was merely a repetition, with Levy, a three day’s beard on his face, making the Augusta batters eat out of his hanu. Moree, a standout for the afternoon,.made a one hand snatch in the second inning to save a sure hit for the most spectacular play of the; game Appearing to be back on his game, the former Birming ham short stop was scooping them out of the grass the whole series. Tucjcgt] whose mania for arguing agains£pXd decisions has been a feature since the Indians opened their home series, appeared to live up to th? .praise that the northern baseban critics have heaped upon his shoulders.
