There were six games play--13 ed in the American yesterday. !9 none over nine innings, and 106 runs were scored, in average ot more than 17 per game. There were 169 hits more than 28 in t. each contest. 6 Some of Hie pitchers, including 6 Wes Ferrell of the Boston Red 5 Sox. think the ball has more “tab5 bit' in it than last year, but oth 2 ers, namely Pat Malone of the 3 New York Yankees, blames il on 8 inferior burling.
