LYNN LOSES BATTLE TO RICHMOND SUNDAY; BYRKETT IS STRONG

Don Byrkett blazoned his name in the Eagles' hall of fame Sunday afternoon by continuing his onslaught on opposing pitchers and being the outstanding feature in the Eagles' defeat of Lynn 5 to 4 at Exhibition park Sunday afternoon. " Before a crowd that packed the grandstand, made up of enthusiastic supporters of both teams, the two rival teams played one of the best exhibitions of the national pastime seen on the local lot this season. It was anybody's gall game up until Clements hit an easy grounder to Long in the ninth inning for the final out of the game. The general last inning exit was not seen Sunday as too many unexpected things had happened in the game previous to that time to make it a certainty that the game might not continue into extra innings. Rooters Back Lynn. Lynn camt to town accompanied by the majority of the townfolk if the amounting of rooting can be taken as an indication. They took the field with a dogged determination to annex the eastern Indiana laurels that seem to be resting on the Eagles' brow. Holsinger, a Muncie product, was on the mound for them and it can be truthfully said that he had most of the local batters standing on their head when not beating an ignominious retreat to the dugout. Byrkett and Justice can be excepted from this classification. The other members of the Lynn nine were handling every chance in big league style. There was capering all over the. outer garden gathering in high flys'hit by Eagles. Visitor's Offensive Strong. Long, Logan and Reddinghaus, were kept busy beating back the offense of the Lynn aggregation. Minner on the mound hapdled himself in good style with the exceptions of the second and seventh Innings. The first inning was a long drawn out affair although only three men faced each pitcher. Hoover, first man up for Lynn poled out a two-bagger but was caught napping t the key stone sack. Splllers and Jones hit Ion? flys to the outfield, j Holsinger worked slow as a sorg hum factory but fanned Logan and Long while Fitzgibbons was out on an easy fly to Hoover. The second inning Lynn brought out the heavy artillery. Clements hit a ningle and Holsinger cracked out a long hit to deep center which went over Justice's head for a home run, bringing in two scores. The Eagles threatened in their half, filling the bases with none out, but the Lynn hurler tightened up, and with , good support succeeded in preventing a r.core. In the fourth frame Byrkett led off with his second hit, was sacrificed to second by Reddinghaus and scored on Knight's sacrifice fly to center field. The locals came back in the fifth and pushed Fitzgibbons across with the tieing run. The seventh inning looked bad for the Ea?le followers. Clements, second man up for Lynn, hit a triple to right center. Holsinger followed with a tingle which scored Clements, and the Lynn pitcher came across on another hit and error. Minner; first up for the locals, reached first on an infield error and scored on a hard hit ball by Fitz- , ribbons, which Hoover threw wild. Long worked for a walk and Holsinger Sisneuea ior neip wnen ne saw uyrkett advancing for his fourth trip t the nlate. Kowasky took up the holm, but fared little better than his tuecessor. Byrkett hit the second ball pitched through second, scoring Long end Fitzgibbons, with tieing and wonnlnz runs. The game was hard played through out. but featured by good sportsman f-hin from both clubs. The Eagles will play Eldorado at Exhibition park net Sunday.

Pirates Playing Over Heads, Z';Claim;:Meam- They Will Win Any Tine Enemy Folks Pull Old Stall It Can Be Marked Down as Confession that Club Will r r : Breeze Along in Front . , -

By FRANK C. MKNKE "The Pirates,'.' , one is Informed, "are playing over their heads.' All of which is a southpaw concession from the opposition that they'll breeze along to the October wire far In front of the National league pack. Any time that the enemy folks doubt a . team's legitimate leadership with an "over their heads" expression, the statement can be tossed into the junk heap. For, when a club has scooted

Na-!along for taree solid months, display

lng the best baseball In either circuit, it's no spurt; it's real merit, sheer power asserting itself. Back in August, 1914, when the Braves, lifting themselves from the July cellar, crashed through toward the top, the skeptics declared: "They're playing over their heads." Whirl to Victory. Possibly the Braves were playing over their own heads but they also played over the heads of everything on the older league. They whirled through to the championship in October and climaxed the year's achievement by crushing the Athletics in four straight. A year later the one-time lowly Phillies rose up, kicked their rivals hither and yon, with reckless abandon but remarkable crumpled and flattened precision. Whereupon the heretics yelled They're playing over their heads The Phillies won. In 1916 when the Dodgers got away to a good start, increased it as time flitted onward, the chorus from the other towns was: "They're playing over their heads." The Dodgers won. None but careful students of the game took the early work of the 1919 Reds seriously. Most everyone else thought it was just a spurt; that the men of Pat Moran were "Playing over their heads." Yet they became world's champions in October. Rarely Concede Merit. Whenever a baseball club which doesn't "dope" on in the spring as a pennant certainty, flashes brilliant baseball into July or August, the form students become puzzled. They rarely will concede they erred in judgment in not naming that club as the peacemaker and probably the winner of the race. They explain it all with: "They're playing over their heads." Tf history repeats in the case of the Pirates, they surely will win the slab! of cheesecloth. For never has a team failed to win a pennant which was accused for month3 with "playing over their heads." A study of the Pirates doings so far this year convinces that they are "playing over their head3" but the heads are. not their own. They are playing over the heads of critics and rival clubs playing superlative baseball.' And they show no signs of slipping from the heights they have gained through their wonderful work. Practically Unbeatable. Any ball club with a sizeable lead like the Pirates now enjoy, plus the confidence that comes with each new

victory, plus mechanical skill with. which the Pirate roster is richy endowed, is practically unbeatable in a battle which already is half over. When a club possessed of known staying qualities grabs a big lead over its rivals, and then has only one in-and-out club to beat, it's task is simplified. For early success breeds a newer fighting spirit and gives to it an impetus that usually sweeps it on beyond all opposition. Misfortune injury to one of the stars, a suspension, or some unforeseen accident may come to the Pirates and not only halt them in the forward dash, but toss them back to defeat. But, with the "breaks" of the game even all around, the safe plunge now is "Pittsburgh to win." Rabbit Big Factor. "Rabbit" Maranville is responsible in a large measure for the wonderful fame the Pirates have played all through the year. The peppery, battling midget supplied to the club on the field the final ingredient needed to lift them from the ordinary to greatness. And . the cheerinesa of the little fellow off the field, his buoyant good nature, made of the Pirates a happy harmonious family. As the season began, there was a tendency to under-rate the Piiate youngsters. . Barnhart, Bigbee and j Brimm may not have been among the iruiy greats a year ago. But in the J time since then they have improved "ii-ji. wuiuttiiiuiioiiiu . ul juarauviue. Carey and Robertson to a point whery they are 50 per cent greater than in 1920. And that's the improvement they'll carry along with them all through the year; the added power, the added finesse, which coupled with the greatness of the "Rabbit," of Carey, Robertson, Cooper, Adams, and the others promise to sweep the Pirates along irresistibly to the October crest of baseball world.

Jack Quinn Will Retire to Become Umpire (By Associated Press) NEW YORK, July 18 Jack Quinn, for several years one of the leading right handed pitchers of the American league as a member of the Yankees, and a man of almost 20 years' hurling experience in the miners and ma jors, will retire at the end of this season and become an arbiter of balls, strikes, etc. Quinn came to the Yankees originally from the old Eastern league. For several years he played with the New York team, then wandered into the minors. He went to the Pacific Coast league and after a successful career became a member of the Chicago White Sox. There was a controversy over this deal and as a result Quinn came back to New York. Urban Faber chalked up another win Sunday slipping over a 1 to 0 win over Boston.
