Barons Threaten to Score

After this session with one run In the
rear the Barons resorted to strenuous
methods to win. Marean had led off In
the sixth with a pop fly, but Messenger
landed on first on Merritt's error. john
ston singled to left, while Almeida' s
grounder to second advanced both on the
hit and run play. Then Merritt held a
consultation with Parsons, who decided to
respect Bill McGilvrays talent as pinch
hitter Mcbride. with the bases fun, failed
to deliver as successfully as he had In
the first game, and the side was retired.
After the nerve of the crowd had suf-
fered slight recuperation from the ex-
citing minutes of the sixth session sim
liar seventh was produced by Moley, Rick
& Co. After ELAN had grounded out,
Yantz singled to the center pasture. The
Baron boss sent in Carroll to swing for
Smith, and he forced Yantz at second.
The fleet footed utility man purloined Sec
ond and hope began TO arise. When Mar
can praneed to first on Parsons largess
things took a brighter aspect, but died
when Messenger popped to Doc" Sea-
bough.
There were several features of the
game. Mcbride hit 1000 in the first game
with three singles, two of which drove in
runs. McGilvray was at bat three times
but sacrificed once and drew two passes.
OF course, he was recorded as having
failed to be at bat Another little stunt
was pulled off when Parsons hit ground
err to Marcan in the seventh inning and re-
fused to run. Then the sphere was passed
around to ELAN. Johnston and McGilvray
and all received an assist. ELAN also

GIANTS WON'T WIN REMNANT
WITHOUT UNDUE ASSISTANCE

whose success might depend entirely
on his own team losing and rival
team winning. 1t is contrary to all
traditions of baseball
THE race in the National league must
be run out strictly on its merits. Not
even a suspicion can be permitted to
creep into the situation right now"
Bresnahan to Be Manager
New York. August 12.-Roger Bresna-
han, manager of the st. Louis National
League club had left the city at the time
OF the arrival of the Chicago dispatch in
which Charles w. Murphy, president of
the Chicago club, was quoted in criticism
of Bresnahan's interest in world tour
of the New York Nationals and All-Amer-
lean league stars.
Sresnahan's connection with the plan
is said here to be only in a way of pros
pective manager.
In baseball circles Mr. Murphy's declara-
ton that the New York team would not
win the national league pennant without
undue assistance from other teams was
read with surprise. 1t was pointed out
that Bresnahans club had been playing
the fastest kind of ball against the Giants
having won five out of the seven recent
games between the two clubs.
IL is understood here the world tour will
be undertaken regardless of whether the
Giants win either the league or world g
pennant.
