The San Francisco call., 1908-10-09

Hard luck for New York, though she got
her second run-6nd her last.
The eighth quickly Wiltse pitched
for New York in Mathewson's place. Sheckard
struck out; Rvers knocked a double to left,
Schultz got TO first Tenney's tumble, which
allowed EVers to make third; Chance flied out to
Mccormick, who threw to Bresnshan at the
plate catching Evers there.
One. two. three again for New York in this
inning Bresnahan out, Brown to Chance; Don
lin hied 10 Sheckard and Seymour was out,
EVers TO Chance.
1t three up and three out each side in
the ninth. For Chicago. Steinfeldt struck out,
Howard hatted little fly TO Devlin and Tinker
did the same 70 Tenney. That closed the game
for Chicago-unless by remarkable luck
New York should tie the score.
1t not 10 be. Deylin went out, Steinfeldt
10 Chance; Mccormick by a fly to Chance, and
Brfdwell by Tinker to Chance route.
1t was all over and there hardly shout
from the immense crowd. Chicago 4, New York
>. And there appeal. The pennant Of
1908 securely in Chicago's grip and IL was
Chicago. not New York, that would seek the
worlds championship with Detroit, champions of
the American league. Score:

By W. ]. SIaffery

The Seals did not have to hit the
ball hard in order to put the rollers
under the Oaks, 3 to 0, yesterday after
noon. All they were compelled to do
was to sneak in a quiet little bingle
now and then and depend upon Oak
land to make bone headed plays and
Oakland sure accomplished these feats.
Errors let two of the Seals complete
the circuit, and the venerable Van
Haltren slumbered peacefully on third
base In the seventh and thus Grabbed
his teams chances of doing a lot of
good
Though the Oaks themselves con-
tributed handsomely to their own de-
feat, their bushlike tactics should not
rob Pitcher Ralph Willis of his share
OF the credit in making 1t a clean
coating of the old white stuff. In
every inning he hung out the Indian
sign and the Oaks faded away under
its influence, never showing anything
like a sign of life.
Oakland got to Willis for eight bin
giles, but the Seal SlabSter kept them
so nicely scattered that the transbay
contingent never figured to go through
with run, save once on a bad toss
by Beck. and then Van was sleeping
and dreaming of how he used to act
ago when ball players wore whiskers
The Seals put two across in the third
with the aid of lonesome hit. Berry
started by lacing one down to Truck,
who booted. McArdle dumped a sacri-
fee and La Longe tossed 1t wide to
first. Willis forced Berry, but Curtis
tered McArdle. After Truesdale recov-
cred the ball he pegged 1t away at
the pan and Willis arrived.
The game continued peacefully on
its way till the sixth, when the Seals
became hostile again. After Curtis
had unloaded his second single into
left Hildebrand took slap in the ribs.
Zeider neatly bunted both men on their
way, and Ping Bodie lifted a very
long fly to Lewis, which gave Curtis
time enough to walk home on his
hands. but he used his feet instead.
Poor old Vans childish tactics in the
seventh made It possible for Willis to
go through with shutout. The old
boy laced the ball for his third safe
drive Hogan continued the lombard
ment with grounder, which Curtis
Van got around to third on the play
and 1t was here that he fell for the
sleep.
Loucks started what looked like a
Texas Lacquer to center, but Beck came
, on and speared IL. La Longe was down
to second by this time and Beck, in
stead of throwing the ball to Williams
for a double. rolled it back. The
sphere got away from Nick and La
Longe at once tore for first in the
hope of beating It out
During all this tumuit Van stuck at
that third sack as though he was fear
full lest the ground keeper might take
it away from him. Just as Williams
picked the ball up Van decided to come
home, but it was too late then. for
Nick grabbed the sphere and tossed ii
TO McArdle just in time to nail La
Longe by foot and complete the
double play.
Both teams kept hustIing every min
ute of the time and reeled the game
off in an hour and 25 minutes. Though
