Ames got Hummel's high bounder on, the jump.

Giants went out in one, two. three order, and
then came the fatal thirteenth.
HOW BROOKLYN WON THE GAME.
Arnes took good care of Sebrigs hunt and the
runner was out at first. but Lumley gritted his
teeth and sent the ball sailing far out into deep
centre, and landed on third base before it could
be returned After consultation with Ten
ney. Anes to the utter disgust of Jordan, pur-
posely gave the big first haseman base on
balls in order TO open the way for double play
1t may have been good judgment, but it did not
turn out well. for Lennox, the next man up.

home for the first run Of the game That was
the beginning Of the end
Bergen the next man up. singled 10 right, and
Murrays quick throw 70 the plate was missed
by Schlei. so that Jordan scored Wilhelm sent
up a high foul to Tenney. but Burch hit slow
one along third base line that Devin let alone,
thinking it would roll foul. and Lennox scored.
Ames settled down at that point and struck out
AlperInan. but the damage had been done.
The Giants made a last despairing effort 10
save the game in their half of the thirteenth
inning. After Brdwell and Schlei had flied out
to Burch Big Chief Myers went in 10 bat for
Ames and while he did not drive out a home
run he sent a screaming single through short
stop, to the huge delight OF the crowd. Herzog
hit bad bounding ball to HummeL at short
stop which the latter could not handle. and
both runners were safe. With two men on bases
and two out Robinson sent Harry Mccormick
in TO bat for Fletcher, and the crowd begged
and begged for a home run. Donln had saved
the dav wear ago in this way. and there was a
hope that history might repeat itself McCor-
mick. who played left field for the Giants last
wear waited patiently while the umpire called
three balls and two strikes. but instead of driv-
ing the next ball into the bleachers for home
rrrn and thus tying the score, he sent a little
bounder to Wilhelm. and the fight was over.
Alderman played like the best second baseman
in the country for Brooklyn, making ten assists
and accepting every chance in the cleanest
fashion For New York BridweH and Fletcher
were the shining lights IN the field Each made
seven assists and Bridwells clever stops and
c,,iclx throws set the crowd cheering several

not have a thing 70 do in the field all the after
noon.
Burch played the sun parlor" at the Polo
Grounds for Brooklyn in a way TO earn a share
of the applause. He made five pretty catches.
