PHILADELPHIA Oct 26.-Hail! Phila-
delphla Athletics champions OF the world
for the second successive year.
In an exhibition OF batting seldom seen
In a premier base ball series the Ameri-
can league team this afternoon defeated
New York In the sixth game OF the series
by the Overwhelming score OF 13 TO 2
thus giving II the four necessary games
to carry off base balls greatest honor. II
was more than mere defeat for the
Giants, II was a rout
Philadelphia is celebrating tonight as
never before In honor OF a great base ball
victory. To defeat New York In revenge
for the trouncing the National leaguers
gave them In 1906 was almost as pleasing
to the Athletics as winning the worlds
championship itself
with tho victory goes GO per cent of
sl27.9l0.6l. or s76,7i6.S7, OF which each Ath-
letic player will receive S3,654.59. The
losers will receive the remainder, $751;
1924 or S2,436.S9. for each New York
player.
Giants Helpless.
Coming from behind after New York
had scored one run In the first inning, the
Athletics tied the score In the third, won
It in the fourth by making four runs,
made It a little safer in the sixth when
they added another run and crushed tho
Giants in the seventh inning under an
avalanche OF seven hits which. with a
couple of mlsplays. added seven more
runs TO the total. The sensational hit
ting OF all the pitchers the New Workers
sent into the box reused the excited
crowds TO the greatest enthusiasm. With
victory In their grasp the Athletics ap-
LII 90 Lat t1,a
inning was over the cheering thousands
started to leave the grounds.
The struggling National league cham
plons sent In three pitchers to stem the
tide, but all were hit almost alike, Wlts0
getting the worst whaling The other two
were Ames who started the game, ana
MaTquard, who followed Wlltse into the
box. Thirteen hits for seventeen bases
was the total shown by the hit column
when the game was over.
Every member OF the team got hit,
with the exception of Collins and Bender.
but the former made a timely sacrifice
that helped TO score run. When the
game began today Catcher Thomas was
the only member OF the White Elephant
team that had not made a hit In the
series. He got into the hit column In the
seventh inning and the Athletics cheered
him. Murray OF the New York team Is
the only one OF it's regulars who failed
10 connect with any Athletic pitcher in
the series for hit
Bender CRrrlca orr HOnOrs.
To "Chlef' Bender. the wonderful Chip
powa Indian twirler, goes the credit OF
pitching the final victory. His work in
the box surpassed the exhibition he gavo
in the first game on the Polo grounds IN
New York. Three singles and double
in as man innings were all the New
Yorks coul, garner off his delivery.
The two q hit was made by Doyle in
the first ng and he scored later when
Murphy l. .fed an easy fly. From this
time the indian was never In trouble.
New York 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 a single and subsequently
scored. 1t was the third game Bender
pitched and his second victory in three
days.
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 brilliantly played
Numerous plays which brought the cheer
ing crowd to It's feet were made. Devore
