comfortable for the first seven innings After

to bat was 6 to against them, and it was then
that batting bee started which resulted In five
runs, telng the score.

one lonely was scored by Minneapolis in
the seventh. but this seemed his DOWNFALL as
Graham made his clean home run over the left
field fence. This ended the scoring for the In.
ming but the eighth fatal for the home
aggregation
Hart wac the first up and went out by the
easy route and oyler beat out bunt. Graham
then went over the fence for two bases. which
landed Andy on third and moment later he
scored on a Wild pitch. Yeager got pass and
Gehring made a home run oyer the left,feld
fence, scoring three runs Lefty Davis singled
and Padden thought that Morgan had shot his
bolt SO Moore was sent in. Sullivan singled
and Freeman also took to Moore and landed or
