"Negro Pitcher Defeates Detroit Tigers. - Havana, Cuba, November 26. - Pedroso, a negro pitcher, let the Detroit Tigers down without a hit in eleven innings today. He would have had a shutout in nine innings without any trouble but for an error. It came in the seventh inning. McIntyre hit a grounder to second, the Cuban guardian at that sack made a clean pickup, but chucked the ball over a low fence back of first base, and McIntyre went all the way around. Not another Tiger reached first, and so effective was the right-handed flinger that his support did not even have a hard chance to handle. Lelivelt pitched a fine game himself, allowing but six hits, but he lost the game in the eleventh. He passed a man and then threw to first on a bunt on which each runner took two bases. The Cubans then worked a squeeze for the necessary tally, a double and a triple scoring their first one. Hopke, the Indianapolis third sacker, who took Bush's place when the latter was called home by his mother's illness, played a sensational game, accepting eleven of twelve chances. Score Detroit 1, Almendares 2. Batteries Lelivelt and Schmidt; Padroso and Gonzales."
