While he did not prove as effective
as Bender, Coombs was unhittable in
the pinches, when he did magnificent
work. Like Bender, he mixed his
curves well, using speed. curves and
a slow one alternately.
Brown did not appear at his best,
as his deceptive curve ball did not
break with the sharpness that 1t usual
ly does. Brown also lacked the con-
troll and after getting two and three
balls on his opponents he was COM
PEELED to stick the next over. AS a
result the Athletics hit timely and
cinched the victory in the seventh

helplessly at BendePs curves The
widely argued question of whether
Chance and his men could hit the
famous Philadelphian received a de-
cisive answer. They could not, and
as a result the betting on the series
has of a sudden readjusted itself and
the Athletics have sprung into hot
fsvoritism for the series.
Game Is Wonderful.
The game was a wonder In its way,
and Chief Bender, who pitched for
the Athletics, had the Chicagoans at
his mercy up to the ninth inning,
when he let down bit and TIE Cubs
got their single tally. 1t was not
earned at that, as Tinker, who scored
the run, was only enabled to make
single because Thomas had previously
muffed a foul from his bat
Only thirty men faced the Ath-
ieties' pitcher in the nine innings,
and but three hits were made off hts
delivery, two of them coming in the
ninth The Athletics secured seven
hits, six of which were secured off
Overall. who was replaced by McIn-
tire In the fourth inning.
McIntire proved to be effective at
once. The Athletics were retired in
one, two, three order for the first
time during the game
The Athletics fielding was without
a flaw until the final inning, when
Thomas dropped Tinker's foul pop
and Strunk later fumbled the same
players grounder to center The Chi.
cago team also fielded well
Bender In Wonderful Form.
Bender was pitching the game Of
his life when the ninth inning opened
In the eight inniSgs which had been
played only twenty-four of the Cubs
had faced his curves, and of these
Schultz was the only man who could
get to first. He did the trick twice
once with single and once on four
wide ones.
The Chicago players were simply
helpless before the big chief From
the start he had them at his mercy,
and as the game progressed and in
cling after inning saw the Cubs go out
In quick succession, the Cub rooters
fell into amazed silence
Athletics Get TWO In Second.
The Athletics scored two runs In
the second inning and the enormous
crowd went wild WITH enthusiasm.
The Cubs had gone out one, two,
three In their half. Baker, the first
man up for the home team, damned
the very first ball overall pitched
into the crowd in left field for two
bases.
A sacrifice by Davis took Baker to
third. and he scored from there when
Murphy cracked single that shot
over SteinfeIdts head Murphy was
able to steal second and Barry's sac
rifiee took him TO third. Then, after
Thomas had walked. Bender wallopsd
a single 70 left, driving Murphy home.
