CLAN THROWS AWAY SECONDSETTO, 6 TO 4

HIGHLANDERS 101/ P80MIMESI

Bronchos Also Protest Game Marred By Ten Errors—Final Score 6 to 4.

By Ralph H. White.

Both "Lefty" Gilbert and Ben Koehler protested yesterday's .contest, the second of the season, which went to the Benders, 6 to 4: l.ut it's a pipe President E. W. Dickerson will throw the double protest into the' discard. The failure of a couple of athletes to enter the conflict in "Cull dress" was the cause of the two-time Kick, which, while possible under the rules, should never have- been lodged with Ump3 Harry Griesel. The South Bend boss started the trouble when Kaylor, acting in the role of pinch hitter, strode to the plate in a road "uni." Rushing up to the indicator, handler, Koehler promptly entered a protest. Previous to this, the Highlander chieftain had given his permission for Pitcher Walker, of the visitors, to perform in a patched up suit, and the Broncho boss overstepped all bounds of propriety when he "doubled crossed" the leader of the clan. But Gillie evened up tha *f£air by lodging a protest, using the slabbist as a "goat," and the matter is now in the hands of -the Central league prexy.

But enough of the protest dope—it isn't based on solid ground and, thereTore. will not likely be seriously considered.

Errors Prove Filial.

The encounter itself wasn't |jp to snuff, ten errors marring the affair. Of ihis number, the clan is credited with six. It was simply an off day, maybe due to the opening day excitement. but, withall, the upset pulled down Gilbert's gang to the old .500 mark and has the bunch in a fighting mood for today's scheduled setto.

To begin with, the Highlanders "spotted" the foe to three runs in the second chapter—a' walk, two weird chucks and a' lucky double by "Goat" Walker putting the Benders out in front. Then came the rally that knotted the count, the clan pushing two over in its half of the second and another in the third. From then until the sixth the clubs stood still, but in the last half of the stanza the. locals put over.a marker, taking the lead, 4 to 3 But the advantage wasn't long maintained, an error paving the way for a Broncho tally in the seventn, wsiich again put the rival forces on eveir terms. Such a state of affairs lasted only untile the following frame, when another wild peg made possible a South Bend credit. But that wasn't all, the enemy adding another in the ninth. Y es, a bobble was thrown In for good measure, although Koehler's two-tag-ger was the blow that killed father.

So, summing it all up, but one of the six South Bend runs was earned. Not a glowing tribute to the clan's prowess, but even Ty Cobb boots 'em occasionally, so what happened in yesterday's mixuip will kindly be forgotten.

Clan Handed a Couple.

On the other hand, the Highlanders were handed a couple of tallies, so it can easily be understood why the fans grumbled over cold suppers last night. It also hurt to see the local outfit overcome and surpass a three-run handicap, only to throw away the verdict. But such is baseball, so here's hotping for better things in today's scheduled fracas.

Waldt'auer and Walker were on the mound at the staijt, but neither lasted lonj?, the former getting his in the first stanza and the latter going out in the second. Hill followed Walker and stuck it out, while Schettler, who finished up the first inning for Waldbauer, gave way to Gilbert at the start of the third. The big boss went along in grand style until the seventh, when Isaacs' boot enabled the visitors to tie it tip. Who do you think "bawled" it up in the eighth? Ask Gilbert. He'll tell you that it was none other than himself, his low throw on Beall's bunt enabling Tannehlll to scoot from first to third, from where he crossed on AVithrow's long sacrifice lift.

As to hits, the winners secured seven and the losers six. How they were divided can be ascertained by lamping the summary.

How the runs were scored: HiicManders. Second inning—La Ross shot a double to left and scored when Isaacs pasted a like hit to right. Mitchell sacrificed his teammate ahead and Isaacs counted on a wild pitch. Two hits, two runs.

Third inning—Gygli opened with a slam to center, took second on Evers' sacrifice and crossed on a single by I.a Ross after Cobb had been retired. Two hits, one run.

Sixth inning—With one gone. La Ross walked and stole second. Withrow's peg was low and La Ross advanced to third. Isaacs again delivered, putting La Ross over with .an infield tap. One hit, one run.

Benders.

Second inning—Tannehill walked and Beall beat out an infield rap. Withrow bumped one to Schettler, who hurled the ball far into right field, Tannehill scoring. Beall followed Tannehill home when Evers' return to the plate hopped a' mile over Wagner's head. Withrow reached third and counted when Walker shut his eyes and banged a double to left. Three hits, three runs

Seventh inning—With two down. Grimes walked.Fisher was safe on Isaacs* error, Grimes taking second. Kadlng was sent into hit for Grav and responded with a single to left. Grimes chalking up. One hit, one run.

Eighth inning—Tannehill poked one to left and raced to third when Gilbert tossed Beall's sacrifice away Withrow biffed a long one to La Ross Tannehill going-over after the• catch. One hit, ont run.

Ninth inning—Koehler busted a twobagger to left to start with and went to third on a' sacrifice by Grimes, Fisher and Koehler worked the "squeeze" the latter scoring. One hit, one run

TWO OVERTIME«

Rapids and Evas Nose Out In Extra Innings—Vets Blank Reapers.

Two ten-inning contests and a shutout battlfe were staged in the Central league yesterday, an indication of the class of ball that can "be expected in Dickerson's circuit this season. The Rapids and Evas were the overtime winners, the first named club nosing out the Stogies in the tenth, 3 to 2, and the Central league champs disposing of the Muskegon Reds in the first extra- session, 4 to 3. The shutout affair was annexed by layton, the Vets, with Jack Rowan up, blanking the Reapers, 4 to 0.

The Grand Rapids-Wheeling encounter was a sizzler, the Rapids forging ahead in the eighth, only to have the Stogies knot the count in the ninth. The winning run was forced over in the tenth, Von Steinberg walking McGraw with the' bases jammed. McArthur hurled for the winners, Donley, Bravener and Von Steinberg for the losers.

The Evansvllle-Muskegon scrap was also hotly contested, -The Reds coi/n.ted two runs in the first half of the tenth, only to have the Evas come back with three in the last half, winning, 4 to 3. Henning's double, along with three other blows, gave the champs the game. Wheatley and Turner worked for the Evas, and Hildreth and Wagner for the Reds.

Jack Rowan was the whole works over at Dayton, the big boy holding the Reapers to five hits in a 4 to 0 success. Scheneberg was a trifie wild at the start, but went good after the fourth. Scores: Gr. Rap's 0 0 1 0 0 0 0 1 0 1—3 5 2 Wheeling 00000 0 10 1 0—2 9 2
