Lawson shelled as Senators salvage series finale

Washington 12, TIGERS 5
at Washington, DC

DET    001 000 112 = 5-11-1
WAS  500 500 02x = 12-17-2
WP- Leonard; LP- Lawson (3-8)
HR- none.

The Senators jumped all over Tigers starter Roxie Lawson, blasting him for 10 runs and 14 hits in four innings of work. Washington sent nine men to the plate in the first inning and it was all downhill from there for Lawson and the Tigers. Al Simmons led the Senators attack with four hits (two singles, a double and a triple) and four RBI. It was just the fourth loss in the Tigers ' past 15 games.

TIGERS: 64-55; Home: 30-29; Away: 34-26


Lawson was powerless to stop the Senators on Saturday
