FRED TENNEY IN SMILES.
His Boston Team Plays Havoc
with McGraW'S Giants.
TERRIERS SNAP AND BITE
Close Decisions and Lack OF
Timely Hits Count Against
Home Team.

After winning seven straight games on
tho hilton. the New York Giants went
down to a huminating defeat at the haiuS
OF the Boston Terriers yesterday AFTER
noon. The score was to>S. Opportunity
the gladstone lady, knocked not only once,
hut twice. and even thrice. at the door OF
the New York team. but the response was
weak. as the record of nine men LETT on
bases shows After rapping the ball over
the fence on Thursday. Merkle came 10
m. IN the seventh with two out ana the
bases full only to pop weakly to lngertoh
snodgrass and Devore both fell down IN
the pinches when the Giants were In far
nv N mil the game out Of the fire.
NcGraw's men, however, were WORKING
,,nder heavy handicap personifed in the
nersons Of two umpires and noisy ran
right back of their bench. who was enough
IN boodoo any game. Twice was Boston
favored by close decisions which hao
direct bearing on the score. The mighty
marley and powwow between the players
and the officials naturally followed to the
usual no purpose. but no one was put out
of the game
In fhe third frame, when Clarke GROUNDED
20 Deylin with Rariden on third, Arthur
appeared TO have the catcher out wheh
he tagged him on a brilliant play, instead
OF throwing to first but Doyle ruled other
wise. This paved the way for four runs
IN the frame as Clarke would have beeh
the second out In the seventh MerKle
rioked I'D Herzog's hunt on the base line
and tagged the runner out, but neither
DOYLE nor Klein could see It, and another
run was tailed later in the inning by
means of the start thus obtained.
Taking the game by and large the
Giants performed rather poorly There
was much wild tossing Of the ball ana
much fumbling OF throws, so that when
the Boston batsmen got to hitting the ball
they had the team on the run and stretched
the safeties for extra bags without pity
Even as reliable player as Bridwell made
two errors The visitors pounded the ball
freely and with emphasis. Red" Ames
had everything for two innings and seemed
N have things well in hand in the third
until Doyle's decision blazed the tran 1or
the Terriers, and they cut loose with
single and two triples thereafter, when
scored four runs
Drucke succeeded Ames In the fourth
and while Spratt tripled as starter, LOUIS
ritched himself out of the hole. retiring
the side with the runner on third. In the
fifth. however. three singles tallieu two
runs. and in the seventh. a pass, close
decision and an error added another.
When the Giants started to rally In the
seventh McGraw sent Otis Crandall In TO
hat for Drucke, and Rudolph finished out
Yhe game The youngster retired the side in
the eighth but a triple, double and an
error by Bfidwell were responsible for two
runs in the ninth The Terriers made thir-
teen hits off the New York twirlers. four
,rinles and two doubles being included in
the cluster.
II would have been fine day for the
Giants to win. with Chicago and Philadel-
Jhia losing. but It was not 10 be. Such
few hits as they did get were carefully
scattered. and did little damage. Tyler
started in the box for Boston and was
wild After the Giants had squeezed over
one run on two passes and single In the
third inning and he had begun the fourth
with couple of passes Tenney called on
Pfener The former Chicago twirler pulled
ont i'm safety. He was far from being In
form. but was good enough TO check the
Giants When a double and three passes
in the seventh forced IN a run, Tenney
was about to give him the high sign. but
Pfefer held the whip hand and retired the
side Although he allowed four hits in the
last two innings they came after two play
ers were out so the Giants could not score
With one ont I'm the third Becker, BAT

In the sixth Murray got 10 second when

Doyle's long drive Snodgrass and Murray
