Crawford's single and Cobb's terrific
drive over the right field wire for a
home run. Then, with no one out, the
erratic Waddell, who had electrified
the spectators by a wonderful exhibit
ton for seven innings, was relieved by
the reliable Plank. In quick success
sion the next three batsmen were re-
tired in order. The game was tenn

almost shook the earth.
Then, from the ninth to the seven

Both teams scored in the 18th. With
