If Fort Worth wins its sixth Texas League championship this I...
season, it will be because there is not a sufficient number ofBob Os-
harm, in the league. The lanky lad from El Paso held the Cats to two
hits and won a 3 to 0 decision Saturday afternoon in the 'final game
of the Spudder home stay,
Osborn's feat of blanking the Fort .Worth club with two singles

gives him a string of 23 scoreless innings in his last two games and Buffs Squeeze Out
27 without a run in his last three contests, against the champions.
The Cats have made a lone run in 32 innings. He beat Pate at Fort
Worth in his first start against the Kittles, 3 to 1, the Cats scoring in
the fifth, and pitched 14 scoreless innings in the memorable battle
with Pate at Athletic Park.
: Osborn was so good that only five balls reached the hands of the
outfielders, two singles and one fly ball each to Bodie, Fitzgerald and
Callaghan.. *
Bodie Smacks Another
• -----
By all rights Osborn should have
• one-hit game under his belt. One
of the,two hits glanced off Stormy
Davis’ bat in the third inning when |
he fell out from in front of an In-
side pitch. The other wae a clean
knock through short by Mullen in
the ninth Inning.
, " Ralph Head, who is having his
troubles in large numbers this
Spring, was the victim of Osborn's
great tossing. Head, after weather-
ing a stormy first inning, yielded
two runs in the second, Al White
and Marty Callaghan delivering
telling blows, and went out in the
third when Ping the Terrible:
opened the inning with his eighth
home run drive of the season. Dutch
Kemner, the infant in point of. serv-
ice of the Panther pitching staff,
finished the game in fine style
Though he was in trouble in every
inning but one he pitched seven
rounds of scoreless baseball Skip-
per Ats used uncanny foresight in
walking Spudder hitters and no less |
than three intentional passes served
the immediate purpose of the Cats
Long Journey Ahead
Distel and Golvin sparkled in the
field, though Osborn’s defense was
seldom called upon to handle other
than easy chances.
. The Spudders departed Saturday
for their first long road journey of
the season. Every city in the league
will be visited before the club re-
turns to Athletic Park on June 3
Sunday the hopefuls play a one-day
stand at Fort Worth and move to
Dallas for a lone game Monday be-,
fpre starting the south Texas In-
vasion. Waco is the first south
Texas stop.
The Spudders missed an excellent
chance in the first, when Head’s
wildness landed two on the bases. |
Callaghan walked and Fitzgerald
was hit by a pitched ball, with Dis-
tel flying out In between. Bodie and
Dorman each hit smashes to the box
for the final two outs.
A pass to Edington was the only |
blemish on Osborn's pitching in
the first two rounds and his vol-
leagues gave him a two-run lead in
