The entry lists closed this afternoon.
Manager Bush certainly is glad the lengthy journey around the circuit closes today. His athletes are hitting muchs.Jn the manner of bloomer girls, and he intends to have plenty of batting practice when Indianapolis is reached. Some of the Hoosiers are nearly blank with the stick and the pitchers are being humiliated even when they twirl good ball The Tribe was defeated for the second time here Wednesday, 3 to 2, despite effective work on the mound by Carmen Hill. Explanation for Carmen's defeat lays in the fact his mates got only five hits. The Indians were out in front. 2 to 0, until the eighth stanza Wednesday. when the Senators scored twice and tied up the game. In the ninth, the locals pushed another marker over and won the contest. Schreiber got two of the five hits for Indianapolis. It was just another case of a weak attack by the Hoosiers. . Batting averages of Christenbury, Schmandt and Clarke are a Joke for high-priced ball players to be getting by on. Allen also has fizzled and is down among the weak hitters. Hodapp is batting far below his 1924 figures.
Notes of the A. A.
r USH’S Tribesmen have been kept j Ls I m the race by high-class pitching lU I and fairly good fielding. If the I pitching staff cracks, good-by pennant hopes. Morning batting practice may be the order when the Indians return home. If not morning practice, it’s a cinch the boys will have to get to Washington Park early In the afternoon and go through long batting drills. f>t, i-aul won again Wednesday, ibis; the rhamps a clean sweep of the Milwaukee serlea. Nick Allen’s team U step r ing fast and is bolstering its league lea? Louisville is about ready to oust the Indians from second place. Starting Friday, four games will be played with Louisville at Washington Park. A double-header will be staged Saturday. The most recent American Association sensation is Outfielder Lure of the Brewers. "Powerhouse Johnnv" got five hits Wednesday, two for the circuit. He bats left handed. The St. Paul club has taken out $50.000 Insurance on Shortstop Koenig. The policy covers death and accident. Koenig will go to the Yankees tn the fall.
