New York. Oct 9.-The Boston Ameri-
can League team took revenge on the
New York Nationals and tied the latter
club in the Inter-League post-season Sc
ries by beating the Giants 3 to In a
smuggling match at the Polo Grounds this
afternoon. Though the Red Sox. as in
yesterdays game. gave their pitcher in
different support at times, Eddie CicOtte
was so good under the pmches and WAS
so ably assisted by his team mates with
the stick that he was never in serious
danger OF defeat once the game got well
under way.
The Giants overlooked many occasions
when runs might have been turned to
good account with a pinch hit or 80. The
first opportunity came in the first inning
with only one run Seymour beat hit
with one out and scored on McCormick's
triple Neither Murray nor Devlin was
good for an extra run. Bridwell singled
with none out I'm the second and raced
an the way to third when Cicotte threw
wildly TO reach him mapping Tenney
followed this by waiting for a pass.
Cicotte struck out Doyle after Schlei
popped 10 short. and Wntse fouled 20
Donohue
But the third inning presented even
more glorious chance Seymour opened
this with a smart single. Murray also
hit after Mccormick flied. Devlin's sin
gle that bounced of Cicotte's knee filled
the bases. Br}dweu fell down with an
easy tap that forced Seymour at the
plate. Tenneys single scored Murray
and Devlin. the only runs Of the inning.

time by beating cut hunt Here Nc

but the Indian inglOriousiy struck out in
the pinch.
Doyle Thrown Out.
The fourth saw further hope deferred.
Doyle led of with a double against the
left field barrier. but was out trying 20
stretch the hit 20 a triple. It was
costly mistake. as Mccormick later
splashed one IN front OF the plate that
would have scored Larry had he waited
20 take third on Seymour's out. Deviin
doubled 10 start the NTH. Bridwell.
Tenuey, and Schlei all failed 10 advance
him. Doyle hit with one out in the sixth.
but was forced before Mccormick was
thrown out. 1t was in the ninth inning
that the Giants hit their usual gait for
the first time. Mccormick singled 20 CEN
tor. Murray forced him, but Immediately
stole second. When Devlin walked he
worked the double steal with Murray.

any farther. But in the third CfcOtte
opened the way to victory with a single
TO right on the first pitched ball. Nc
Council walked. Lord hunted safely, fll-
ing the bases. Wiltse walked Speaker,
forcing home Cicotte with the tying run.

double to right that cleared the bases OF
all but himself He took third on Dono-
hue's out, and scored on Niles sacrifice
fly, French ended the agony by striking
out

Marquard. who relieved wiltse in the
fourth was lucky TO escape as long as
he did Thoney hit through Bridwell and
Seymour had to make the play OF the
day to rob Cicotte Of an extra base hit
A wild pitch put Thoney on second before
Mcconnell was passed. A lightning
double play by Doyle. Tenney, and Bird
well extricated the southpaw from his
dilemma.
In the sixth also Marquard escaped
more through good luck than merit. But
In the seventh Boston finally got to Mar
guard for results. Mcconnell hit past
Rridweil and Lord scratched another to
Marquard on the hit and run Speaker
hit TO left. putting Lord on third and
scoring Mcconnell. Speaker stole second
