Murray of the New York team Is
the only one of lis regulars who failed
to get hit.
Bender Was the Real show
To Chief Bender, the wonderful
Chippewa Indian ltwirler, goes the
credit Of pitching the final victory
His work in the box surpassed the
exhibition he gave in the first game
on the Polo grounds In New York.
Three singles and double in as many
innings were all the Now Yorks could
garner off his delivery. The two base
hit was made by Doyle in the first
inning and he scored later when Muir
ply muffed an easy fly. From this
time the New Yorks were never in the
battle Deyore got a single in the
third and one In the fifth inning. In
the ninth Bender Appeared to let
down, and Herzog hit him for sin
gle and subsequently scored. 1t was
the third game Bender pitched and
his second victory in three days.
Some Sensational Playing.
Despite the terrific hitting on the
part of the Athletics and the fact that
total OF eight errors were made by
the two teams, the game was brilli-
antly played. Numerous plays that
brought the crowd to its feet were
made. Devore. left field for New
York, robbed Lord of a sure three
base hit by a great sprint, catching
his long fly in the center field. Baker
and Davis made sensational running
catches of foul flies, and Collins cleo
trified the spectators by stop and
throw of a terrific grounder back OF
second base that no one thought he
could reach. The Philadelphia team
was charged with five errors and all
of them We're made on the easiest
kind of chances Two of New York $
three erI ors were wild throws which
practically started their downfall.
A Small. but Noisy Crowd.
The crowd was the smallest of the
series, numbering 20,4S5. But what
it lacked in numbers was made up In
enthusiasm. There was little noise
until the third inning when the Ath-
etics tied the score, and when the
home team cut. loose in the fourth
and subsequent rouls2e there was not
q letup in the cheering
Every player was given rousing
hand when he came to the plate, and
finally the Athletics so far outclassed
the Giants in the hitting department.
of the game that the crowd began to
cheer in derision everytime an Ath-
letic player was thrown out by New
York man The fourth inning was
noisy, but it was not marker to the
seventh when ten Athletics stepped TO
the plate to take a crack at the rit-
ching.
McInnes Gets i'm the Game.
A bit of sentiment on the part oy
Captain Harry Davis was cheered
when he sent the injured Mclnnes In
to the game in the ninth inning.
"Stuffy' took the last putout and Of
ficially figured in the series. Chief
Meyers also retired near the end OF
the game in favor of Wilson prob
ably for the same reason, Before the
game began 1t looked as though
Plank would be the pitcher and there
was some surprise among the fans
when Connie Mack sent Bender into
the box. The chief proved that he
could pitch more than twice a week.
