sweet, was the Giants portion In the game
| with St Louis to-day. for they over
whelmed the Cardinals under an avalanche
! Of hits and runs and won by the score oil
S TO o. Not the least pleasing feature OF
the New York victory was the splendid
pitching Of Marquard. who did great
zeal to establish further his reputation.
-Four scattered hits were all st. Louis
could gather from his efficient work on the
mound which was all the more commend
able inasmuch as he struck out nine OF the
Cardinals Not once was the home team In
position to score.
With the Giants, however, 1t was Diff
ferent story. for they were awake TO near
ly all their opportunities, and when a hit
meant n run the hit was forthcoming
Things did not begin any too smoothly
hut after Il bad first inning they settled
down and by the time the fourth period
came around they were ready for any
! thing and everything. They showed their
! complete mastery OF the situation by nam
rnering Steele so vlciously that he was
forced to retire, and they did just as much
| damage TO the best pitching that Goldeh
and WOODBURY. could show. In all, the
Giants played a game Of the sort that wins
remnants and entirely different from the
sluggish incapable style of play that they
served up yesterday. They fielded In bril-
liant STYLE and gave Marquard errorless
support from first to ninth inclusive.
Individually the Giants did just as well
as they did collectively. Fletcher covered
himself with glory by his splendid work in
the field and at the bat. He smashed out
] lyar Of
accepted six difficult fielding chances. He
roamed around between second and thlrd'
end everything that came his way he got
Marquard did a great deal toward winning
his own game by making two hits and
holding up his end in the fielding line IN
the most approved fashion.
A cog or two in he Giants machine
slipped in the opening inning, for good
chance to score was thrown away then'
and again in the second the New Workers
had q couple OF men on the bases put
wore able to do nothing. AS for the Car
dinals. they never got even hair a grip
Marouard was such a complete mystery
that only one OF the Mound City men pene-
trated as far as second base, and ne was
left betwixt and between when doupie
nlay behind him put the side out OF the
running. SIX Cardinals had the pleasure
Of getting as far as first base. and, with
the exception of the one above mentioned
that was as far as they could get
But to come back TO the early wabbles
of the Giants. Devore opened very au-
spicuouslv with a clean and sharp driven
single. Josh suited tho action to the
thought and stole second Just before Doyle
flied out. Devore showed the first signs OF
weakness when he strayed too far from
second base and was caught mile Off the
bag. Snodgrass walked and got as far
as third on Beckers single. Then the pair
tried a double steal, with results not favor
able TO the Giants. In the second inning
Merkle singled and Meyers was hit with
pitched ball. but the Giants could do MOTH
ing In the scoring line.
AS II turned out. however, the real
chances came IN the fourth inning ana
the Giants. having found themselves by
that time, were alive 10 everything that
happened Becker walked and Merkle
singled. Herzog did his share by sacri-
ecing. Fletcher then came through with
the hit that marked the opening OF the
Cardinals downfall Both Becker and
ne far as second. Fletcher saw an open
ing and stole third. from which point OF
vantage he scored when Meyers sent out
a sacrifice fly 10 Ellis.
After having tasted the Giants wanted
more. and added another run In the next
session on singles by Doyle and Becker
There was another determined sorie ny
the visitors in the sixth that resulted IN
The capture % brace Of tallies. Herzog
singled Fletcher had the fortune good
or evil as one looks at it, Of being hit by
a pitched ball Meyers was out on Inc
fv. but that was only temporary stay
for Marauard brought hit to the plate
with him and sent it out TO right held'
scoring Herzog Evans made a ine one

il did not prevent Fletcher from scoring.
The score follows:
