Plating thus cap- tured the season series with Hughes three games to two and have been their big obstacle in sewing up the league champion- ship before now. Hughes’ shoddy defensive play combined with the in- ability of the hitters to de~ liver in the clutch has mov- ed them back with the pack. Plating started quickly by‘ getting four runs off four hits in the first inning. The Toronto club's hustle and heads-up baseball also forced Shells into‘ four errors. ‘ Hughes got one back in the second when Watt tripled and scored in Staughlon's single.
