Error Nets a Run, While

All leading baseball teams have a little IuqJ- now and then, and a bit of it fell In the way of the White Sox yesterday. . helping them nose out Cleveland. 2 to 1. and making the
1HS opening of Comiskey park a glorious event. The Sox were helped to one of their runs, while Cleveland was deprived of another run because Chapman failed to touch first base while running out a legitimate two-bagger. . Had those two breaks gone the other way, there would have been sadness on the south side last night instead of Joy. It was a desperate and close game.
and for once things broke in favor of
Callahan's aspiring players. Jim Scott,
the tall south side hnrler who was beaten by this same team in the first
game at Cleveland, came back and re
deemed himself with marked distinction, allowing the Naps only three base
hits and not once permitting the swat
ting Joe Jackson, who was Scott's un
doing before, to hit the ball to safe
ground.
St. liouis. Mo., April IS. tip to the ninth inning yesterday Larry Cheney
had within one man of a perfect shut
out game in his grasp, but in the last
stanza a pair of scratch swats and
saffron guess by Umpire Eason wrecked the whitewash pail and produced a final count of 7 to 1. Cheney did not care po much about losing the shutout chance as he did being bilked, out of what he thought was a no hit game, although It would not have been. In eight innings only one Cardinal saw first and he got there on a crooked
bounder that got away from Vic Saier.
As round after round was reeled off without another Cardinal reaching
first inquiries were made concerning
the nature of the play which enabled
that lone man to attain Saiersville In
the opening Inning. It was found that
it had been scored a safe hit unani
mously.
