Kid llborfsld's Chattanooga reprcseu
tatives sprang a painful surprise on
the Giants here yesterday sitemoon
when they defeated the big iesguers
by a score. of 7 to l. The local team
made fourteen hits for a total of twen-
ty-threo bases. Pour pitchers held
the Giants to five hits. Thus the
Giants ,who open their series with the
traulteos next Friday, anded tbeirlong
training with the worst defeat of the
season.
The reason for this disaster was
the poor pitching of Perritt and Ben
ton. The latter did not make a good
showing against the Tigers last Sstue
day. but Psrritt has been in due con-
dition for weeks. it Was surely an off'
day for the Louisiansn. The Elber-
foids clubbed him for ten hits in six
innings. and these hits were good for
a total of seventeen bases.
The Giants were. never in the run»
ning. They didn‘t score their lone
tally until the second. inning. Chatta-
nooga thumped Peri-lit for two runs
in the opening scallion. Elberfeld
gave the Giants every chance to get
going. as he changed pitchers every]
two innings. They all looked aliket
to the McGrawites, however. New
York's hits. were all singles. Three
of them were coupled up in4ho sec

Neither Perrit nor Benton had any-
thing on the ball that bothered the
local hitters. The Lookouts started
after Perritt in the first inning when
Daley opened with a twobase hit.
Perritt then limited them to one hit
in the next three innings only to crack
badly in the fifth and sixth when he
