Orsatti drove deep to Brown and Holm flied to Welsh to close a game in which Joe Genewich he'd the Birds to seven hits. Alexander also' yielded but seven safeties, but the old master was not quite so effective as the Boston right-hander. The extra-base column plainly indicates as much. The only Cardinal sock for distance was Chick Hafey's first-inning home run, which came with Frisch on base and gave the Cards a 2 to lead. Extra- Hits of Aleck.

There were four extra- hits off Alexander, that homer by Fournier and three doubles, each of which played a part in Boston's run production. The one bright spot in otherwise drab afternoon was the ing of Frankie Frisch. The Flash handled total of ten chances at the midway, and now, according to unofficial figures compiled by the GLOBE- has equaled the major league -record established. by Larrie Lajole in 1908. In that season, nineteen years ago, Lajoie accepted 988 at second base for the Indians.

Frisch reached that mark yesterday. The GLOBE-DEMOCRAT figures show that Frisch has handled 990 chances, but two of these chances were handled by Frisch while playing shortstop In the July 5 game at Pittsburgh. They do not count In Frisch's play at second. Since Frisch has eight more games to play with the Cards this year, he should go well beyond the thousand mark in chances accepted. He already, bas broken two records within the past week, having surpasesd Hughie Critz's National League mark of 945 chances and having excelled Critz's major league mark of 588 assists in a single season.

Frisch's assists at the current writing, according to unofficial figures, total 607. First Two Pitches Yield Run. Getting back to yesterday's defeat, Alexander was touched for a run on bi. first two pitches. Richbourg opened the game with double against the right feld wall, Orsatti, recovering the ball quickly, made 8 close play at second with a good throw to Frisch, who protested when Umpire Jords called Richbourg safe.

On the next pitch, Gautreau bounced a double just inside the third base line, Richbourg scoring. The Cards retrieved lost ground in a hurry. Douthit opened the Cards' first inning with a single to left. He was forced by Frisch, but Hafey lined the ball into the leftfleld seata for home run. The score remained at 2 to 1 in the Cards' favor until the fifth, when Genewich himself drove In the knotting marker.

DISPATCH TO THE GLOBE- DEMOCRAT. WASHINGTON, September 23. The Browns and Senators idled here today as far 88 baseball was concerned, but were pretty busy otherwise, paying and collecting small wagers on the result of last night's noon most of the winners took aden fight. This aftervantage of the fine weather and the afternoon off to journey to Havre de Grace race track and make the usual contributions to the "iron men." The two teams meet again tomorrow and Sunday, this Sabbath encounter ending the Senators' home schedule, except for a single game Athletics on October 2, the last day of the season. Immediately after this Sunday's game, Manager Stanley Harris leads men to Boston, while Pilot Howley will take his Brownies home, where they will open a set with the Cleveland Indians Wednesday.

For tomorrow's game the Washington pilot has Irving Hadley, young cht hander, who stands out as one of the most sin rookies of season. ready to toe the slab, while Milton Gaston is likely to be Howley's choice. Bad Break for Howley, This series with the Senators, by the way, is looked upon as a bad break by Manager Howley. With the Browns out of the fight for any of the money positions, Dan would like to do little experimenting with some of. the minor leaguers' who have reported, but he does not feel that this would be fair to the Detroit club at this time, with the Jungaleers and.

Senators fighting tooth and nail for the third-place prize. "I must admit that my regulars have given two sorry exhibitions in the set here," Howley stated this morning, "and I really do not believe that any rookies I might use would do any worse. However, 1 am playing no favorites and will do no experimenting at least until after we leave Washington." Howley is at a loss to account for the poor work of his team of late. "I know that the boys are trying their best," he said, "but with nothing at stake and the race so near over, they apparently cannot get themselves steamed up, and I don't know as I blame them." Bing's Arm Out of Comish. Outfielder Bing Miller's injured left elbow is still 80 sore that he cannot use the arm.at all, the result of a collision with one of Pitcher Horace Lisenbee's speeders while at bat in Wednesday's game.

He will stay here and return home with the Browns Sunday, -but it is hardly likely that he will be able to play any more this season. "How many times have the umpires chased you off the field this year Dan?" Manager Stanley Harris asked the St. Louis leader when the two, from force of habit, drifted out to the apple orchard this morning. "Not once," said. Howley, proudly.

Mound City fans may not know it, but Howley was the most "chased" player or manager in the International League. He admits himself that few weeks passed that he was not run off of the field. Setting An Example. "I made up my mind when I landed the St. Louis job that I would set my men an example in this respect, and, although I have done plenty of protesting, I have tried to hold myself in check and not to about trifles, and it looks as argue though I have been chased for the last time.

As a matter of fact, kicking doesn't get you anywhere anyhow, because everybody knows that an umpire never changes his decisions." The Browns always have proven tough "hombres" for the Senators and this season has been no exception to the rule. By winning the Wednesday and Thursday to games pull the Washingtonians managed for the up to an even break, the count season now standing at ten victories each. Frisch vs. Hornsby BATTING. Name.

Manuch, Detroit, The Pirates carried Ave-run lead into the seventh, but Carmen Hill, who had defeated the Giants Ave times previously, weakened and four runs crossed the plate, With the bases loaded and two out. Lindstrom dropped a Texas league single that brought in two runs, and another one came over when Lloyd Waner made a bad peg to third. Trailing by one run in the ninth, with one out, Mueller walked and Lindstrom's hit to center took a high hop that turned it into a threebagger. Roush sent a short fice fly to Lloyd Waner and scored Lindstrom from third on a very close play. The Giants seemed to get the best of the umpire's decision, for it looked as if Smith, in taking Waner's throw, put the ball on Lindstrom a second before he reached the plate.

Norman Plitt, who did rescue work in the seventh and eighth, got credit for the victory. Benton hurled the ninth.
