Not one Cap got beyond seo

Manager Don Osborn of the

chores himself, started previous

the smooth-working lefty pro
ceeded to battle on even terms
with Swope for four innings.
Neither nine got a hit during
that spell.
Russo's hit to center broke the
spell in the top half of the fifth.
but after Maddern bunted him
along, Swope got Ball and Babich
