HIGH STANDARD SET
No Better Ball Seen in a
Worlds Series.
WOOD BEST TN PINCHES
Boston Hurler More Capable in
Tight Places Than
Tesreau.
BY J. ED GR1LLo.

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, October 9-No better ball
game than that which marked the in
auguration Of the 1912 world series and
a victory for the Red SoX over the Giants
here yesterday has been furnished in
any games heretofore played for the
highest honors of the national game.
Boston won principally because the men
from the Hub got what. in the parlance
Of the game. are the breaks. They bunch
ed enough hits in one inning after a
chance had been offered to retire them
scoreless to give them a victory. In this
round came four hits of their total of six,
and the three runs which resulted, being
added to the one they had scored in the
previous inning, proved sufficient to de-
eide the day.
New York outhit Boston, but let it be
said to the credit of Joe Wood that when
it came to pitching in the pinches he had
something on his rivals. There was, Of
course, but one inning when Tesreau was
really asked to work himself out of a
hole, and in that inning he failed. There

Murray drove in couple Of runs with a
single, he always doomed up as the master
of the situation.
1t was not game in which there were
many brilliant plays, though there We're
some worthy of note. But it was the
intense interest Of the crowd and players
that made the game one long to be re-
membered by those who witnessed it. Ex-
citing situations were many. and right at
the finish the excitement was at it's great
est. New York threatened to either tie
or win the game at this late stage. One
run had been scored. and men were on
second and third. with but one out. The
stage was set for one of those nose fin
ishes which drive the real fans mad,
but the scene was spoiled for the Giants
by Joe Wood. who struck out the last
two batters to face him, and this won
his game.

Only One Earned Run.

Though errors. as shown by the score,
were few, yet it is fact that If the two
pitchers had been blessed with perfec.
support neither side would have scored
during the game excepting the one tally
which the Giants earned in the ninth.
The Giants first two runs resulted from,
Lewis losing a little fly in the sun. and
the SoX's first run was on a ball that out
1ielders would ordinarily have caught As
for the three runs which Boston sent
home in the seventh. they were the direct
result of a miSplay by Doyle when he
fumbled where. If he had handled the
ball clearly a double play would have
resulted and no runs would have been
scored.
But this misplay. and it could not ap-
pear in the score because Doyle got one
man when he should have had two, was
followed by a fusillade of hits and three
runs.
But for Doyle. Tesreau would prob
ably have gone through without ever
hap seemed to unnerve him. and the
pounding was administered there and
then.
Up to the sixth inning the Red SoX
had failed to get the ball into safe
territory. and a badly played fly ball
gave them their first hit in the sixth.
Wood. on the other hand, had been hit
safely four times during the same
period and two runs had been scored.
1t was in the third that the Giants
got their temporary lead. After Wood
had struck out Tesreau he walked De-
wore Doyle hit fly to left for which
Lewis did not start until 1t was too
late. and the result was that it fell
safe and second and third were occu-
pied, with but one out Wood, how
ever. struck out Snodgrass, but MUIR
ray came through with a hit to right
which scored the two runners
Begin to Even Up.
This lead was held without much
trouble until the sixth, when the Red
Sox shortened it by one. During the
early innings Tesreau's wildness had
offered Boston opportunities. but the
absence Of the necessary hit allowed
him to get away with a whole hide. In
the sixth Speaker hit a line drive to
left center. 1t was a hard chance it is
true, but Snodgrass should have made
the catch. Instead, however it struck
the tips of his fingers and rolled to the
stands, while Speaker wound up at
third. Lewis grounder to Doyle al
lowed Speaker to score, but Gardner
retired the side.
No one would have suspected that
there was a possible chance for Tes-
reau to go wrong. He seemed to i'm
prove with every inning. and yet in
that seventh inning he suddenly went
poorly and away went the game. He
got rid of Stahl to begin with. but
Wagner hit safely to right field for
base. Cady followed with one TO CEN
ter. and first and second were occupied
when Wood hit the sharp grounder to
Doyle. The latter let the ball bound

the side. At this stage Hooper came
along with the two-base hit past Mer-
kle which scored Wagner. and with
found one to his liking and sent 1t
screeching to left field for base. Two
more runs scored on this hit.
Wood Works Brilliantly.
Encouraged by the rally of his team
mates and the fact that he now held the
same advantage that Tesreau had over
him earlier in the game, Wood steadied
down and worked brilliantly from the
fifth on. But two men reached first base
for the next three innings, one on an
error and another because he was hit by
pitched bail. He moved the Giants
down in order usually. and he started
the ninth well when he caused Murray
to hit little fly to right. Merkle. how
ever, started something when he singled
and Herzog followed suit. derkle going
to third Chief Myers followed this with
a line drive to right which came within
a few feet of clearing the wall. 1t was
good for but two bases. and not only
scored Merkle, but put the game in a
position where base hit would win the
game and long fly would tie the score
1t was the hardest nosition Wood had
been in during the day. but he again
