Rixey slabbed for the Phils. Johnny McGraw put Umips Byron hors de combat after the Reds and Giants game in the chib house. He hit the umjps flush on the jaw and put him down for the count. It is said that Byron provoked the argument, but both men probably will be set down for a few days by the league head With a stiff fine attached. By rallying in the last three innings the Browns collected 11 runs against the Macks. St. Louis touched Rudolph, of Boston, for 13 hits and nine runs and went to the top as the best rungetters of the week with 32 to their credit. The Browns are next with 27. Ty Cobb et al downed the Red Sox 7 to 4 in a free hitting contest. The Georgian poled a homer. The Yankees scored seven funs in the first inning against Cleveland, all they got. Bagby and Gould were hit hard by the New Yorkers.
