IS - i • y 6 THE CdAi^OTTE NEWS. MAY 9. 191 i SPORTS Cashion Presented One Goose - Egg To Cross Crowd 7he Big Davidson Pitcher, with a Change of Pace And i Swift Ball, had Hornets a> His Mercy, Score Was 11 to 0 When the Final Frame Frizzled Out, and *^Big Liz** was Iht Eero of the First Day, (’aslnon did it. Thoro ain’t no use a- lai! of iryinc: to >;et around the iiro- position with any i hptorlcai utteranccp, or parciu(»xiral subterfuges. Nor can baseball alaiijj help but little. For Char lotte was bf-aten and beaten badly. One larpe notme ejrs: was presented by that lAz” Cashion. who once twirled for Uaviuson and who is now drawing a salary from the Spinners. The score was 11 to 0 when the ninth frame had ended. Schaeffer, CuniniinRs and Henry tried to stop the Greenville crowd frorti frcoring. but none was successful. Schaffer lasted four rounds, Cummings one and Henry four. There wasn't much difference in their pitching, each ir.an allowed some hits, walking some men and throwint; them across so ihe other fellows could do most any thing with them. There were no home runs, though, and this helped a lot. Cashion was in his best form. The four hits gotten off his delivery were scattered and one was a Texas-leaguer of the rankest order. He used an underhand ball, an overhand ball and a speedy one that was something on the order of those shot across the plate by Walter .lohn- Bon of Washington. He pitched a great er game here yesterday than has -been Been upon this diamond since the sea son opened. There are prospects, too, that he will pitch again before t!i^ Spinners leave. May luck favor us if he does. Cross and Carman made errors in the first inning and that started the l aU a-rolling. Jenkins sacrificed and (Joodman hit for three sacks, scoring I'f'ih men and being thrown out at the l>late himself when he tried to stretch the hit into four sacks. The throw from the field was a perfect one. From tliis minute ‘ W the last man was out in the fn : e there w’as absolute ly nothirti, lor the Hornets. They did not s>.. Some one threw dirt in the air, periia/ps. or maybe a bell was rung. Anyway, they settled down to their defeat. The game was featured l>y more double plays than any one played here yet. It was a common occurrence for two men to be on the bases and both get caught. It was also featured by a boneheaded play of Cummings who ’ took a throw from the field and tossed It over the catcher’s head. Hargrave and Canny were both behind the bat. Each worked well. Brandow at third was In excellent form and Coutts In left field did all that was required of him. Roth was there with the goods except the fact that he did not hit as wel as usual. But no one hit Cashion. "Big Liz” was In great form and he turned the trick. It was said some time ago in these columns that he was the best pitcher In the league with the pos sible exception of Swindell of Win ston. It Is stated right here, right now, that he IS the'best pitcher, Swindell, not excepted. The box score will tell a lot about that game yesterday though. It’s an in teresting thing to study. There will be another game this afternoon at four o’clock and Griffin will work for the; Spinners while Hankie will mount the mound for the Hornets, The box score: (^REEXA'ILLE AB R H PO A T Sharp, 2b 2 2 0 7 2 2 Smith. 3b 4 1 0 3 0 Jenkins, lb 2 2 1 9 0 0 Goodman, ss 4 1 3 1 l 0 iilackstone, If .... r> 2 3 Q 0 0 I)oak, cf 5 0 2 0 0 0 Ochs, rf 4 0 2 1 0 0 Kite, c 5 0 0 9 1 0 Cashion, p 5 1 2 0 0 0 Totals 3G n 14 27 7 2 CHARLOTTE AB R H PO A E Hofh, rf 4 0 0 1 0 0 McMillan, cf 4 0 0 3 2 0 Brandow, 3b 4 0 0 2 0 0 Garman, lb 3 0 0 7 0 1 Cross, 2b 4 0 3 4 6 2 Coutts, If p, 0 2 3 0 1 Weiser, ss 4 0 0 3 4 0 Hargrave, c i o 0 1 0 0 Canney, c 2 0 0 3 2 0 Schaeffer, p i o 0 0 2 0 Cutnmlngs, p o 0 0 0 0 1 Henry, p l o 0 0 1 0 •Woodson 1 0 0 0 0 0 Totals 32 0 5 27 17 5 •—Batted for Henry in 9th.

BEATEN BY WINSTON-SilLEM Spartanburg, May 9.—Lyon was not ferocious yesterday and Winston v. on i the opening of the series by the score ; of 9 to o. Swindell, Winston’s etar twirler was batted from the box in the early stages, and Ray relieved him. Manager LaVal took the ploce of Lyon after the game was lost, but two runs were scored off his delivery. The game was an uninteresting one, drageing for two hours and a half and tiring many of the fans. The score: Here’s an individual^ among drinks—a beverage that fairly snaps with delicious goodness and refreshing wholesomeness. i has more to it than mere wetness and sweetness— it’s vigorous, full of life. You’ll enjoy it from the first sip to the last drop and afterwards.
