Indians Crestfallen Over Defeat at Hands of Cincy Reds. LOVE PITCHES WELL Speece and Boone Are Hit Hard, However. BY EDDIE ASH, Tiroes Sports Editor Sarasota, Fla., March 14. Crestfallen over their defeat Wednesday by the Cincinnati Reds, 10 to 4, the Indians resumed regular spring training practice today and Manager Betzel announced before the session started he would begin bearing down on the pitchers and ask more work out of certain members of the Tribe staff. The best he could say regarding the effectiveness of the three flingers he used Wednesday was that Ruel Love, anew thrower, made an excellent showing and that Byron Speece and Danny Boone evidently were in need of additional spring training. Speece, the starting hurler, was easy for the Reds the first two innings; Love, who operated next, blanked the major leaguers and allowed only one hit the three innings he performed and Boone, the last moundsman used, pitched two good stanzas and then went to pieces in the ninth as the Cincy athletes solved him for six runs all in a cluster. It was a good ball game until that happened. The day wasn’t a total loss, however, because the A. A. champions collected thirteen hits, the same as Cincinnati, and threatened to jump out in front right up until the Reds staged their ninth inning barrage. In fact, the Tribe hitters from the beginning had bad luck with their drives but kept trying and pushed over two runs in the final round before they were erased definitely. tt tt it Pete Monahan, first saeker, led the Indiana pack with the bludgeon by getting three singles, and in the fifth, with two mates on base, his drive fell only a yard short of clearing the right center field fence and fell into the glove of the Cincy fly chaser stationed in that territory. n tt tt LEN KOENECKE WAS ERRATIC ON GROUND BALLS IN CENTER FIELD. THERE'S TOO MUCH RESPONSIBILITY CONNECTED WITH THAT POSITION FOR A ROOKIE. HE GOT RATTLED WEDNESDAY WHEN RUNNERS WERE ON THE PATHS. tt it Bud Connolly’s two hits were solid swipes to left. In the field he had much to occupy him. tt tt tt Reb Russell cut himself in for two safe drives. Warstler met the ball with a good punch, but got only one safe. it it tt CHUCK GORMAN POLED ONE HIT, DREW ONE WALK AND PLEASED EVERYBODY BY HIS DEFENSE OF THIRD BASE.

In the three Innings he chucked the “agate,” Ruel Love gave up only one hit and one walk. He formerly pitched for Dallas and came to the Indians from the Quincy roster. n tt n The famous Cincinnati double play combination is oiled up early this year. Critz to Ford to Kelly knocked off the Indians three times Wednesday. NEW FACES WITH THE REDS WERE SHANER, FROM CHATTANOOGA; CRABTREE. FROM OKLAHOMA CITY; SWANSON. FROM THE SAN FRANCISCO MISSIONS. AND KEMNER, FROM NEW HAVEN. ZAHNISER, FROM ST. PAUL. IS WELL KNOWN IN INDIANAPOLIS. tt ft t ft Leo Dixon and Rube Lutzke. former Indians, came to Sarasota with the Reds, but did not see action. tt a tt The Indians will leave camp for the first time Friday, when they go to Tampa to mix with the Southeastern League team of that city. It's the same nine the Tribe beat here last Saturday. Box * score: INDIANAPOLIS AB R H O A E Warstlcr. ss 5 1 1 2 4 0 Connolly. 2b 5 1 2 7 1 0 Koenecke, cf 5 0 1 2 0 1 Barnhart.

from minor league outfits around their respective training camps. A striking example of what the Pirates will look like this season without the Wancrs, who are holding out for a joint salary of $35,000, was on view at Paso Robles, Cal., Wednesday, where the San Francisco Seals drubbed Ownie Bush's club, 10 to 1. With Glenn Wright's arm threatening to ruin his major league career and Dazzy Vance lulling around the Florida golf links while waiting for his $25,000 salary terms to be met, the Brooklyn Robins resemble first-class cellar material.
