vances towards securing the Keokuk

months ago he said that If deal
could be made he would put team
here in the G. A., but he dropped the
matter then and nothing more was
heard Of it.
Saturday the Keokuk High school
meets the Memphis high school in
the second game of the season and
they are confidently expecting to
run up a large score. With q tie with
the heavy Burlington team to the
credit of the local school, they can
not see any chance to take a beating
from Memphis. All the old men ex-
cept jenkins will be back in the line
up giving them their full strength
and giving their supporters the first
chance to get real line on their abil-
ity Hard work has been the order
since the Burlington game and many
new plays will be tried for the first
time In Saturdays game.
The crowd that watches the bulle-
tins from the worlds series in front
of The Gate City office is daily grow

came known around town that the
teams were desperately battling for

Anybody,s Series.

Here at the end of two battles when
some line should stand up on the rival
play, each club sees in the other an
easy victim. Either may be right.
The Giants hit Wood harder than they
expected to on Tuesday and yesterday
they tore the glistening hide of both
Collins and Hall. They believe they
have Boston's pitching in hand and
will continue to hit unless someone
shows a bewildering Improvement
over what has gone before.
After beating Tesreau, Boston in the
second game found the Giant defense
SO wide apart that six unearned tallies
were rushed through where with even
fair support behind Mathewson, but
one would have been netted. One
man, Fletcher, slipped them four or
FIVE runs and muff at the plate grac.
iously presented another. When a
ball club is drawing six unearned runs
within one fleeting afternoon, the de
fensive play of the opposing team can
be summed up. briefly without calling
upon any burning oratory to explain
the answer.
The daily Gate City. [volume] (Keokuk, Iowa) 1855-1916, 1912-10-10
Belonged to Mathewson.


Taking no credit from Boston's
game and driving assaults or the
pinch hits her stars tore off at the
proper moments, Mathewson's third |
worlds series start should have net
ted the old master his third first
game victory.
Where the Giants pounded Collins
and Hall from the field, 1t was Math>
ewson's support which cost him the
verdict and not his own work In the
box. The Red Sox hit him and hit
him hard, but through his GOODNESS
and courage under fire only single
run was clearly earned. Through the
entire fight Mathewson's support
cracked around him while he swung
on grimly and gamely, fighting, plan
ming, hustling and STAYING off defeat
by combination of brains and heart
where a pitcher with far more physi-
cal stuff might have crumpled up and
surrendered the contest.
And yet, there were others who
rallied behind the veteran and fought
with che courage that braves disaster.
Leading the Giant attack, Buck Her
cog and Red Jack Murray, shoulder
to shoulder, broke down the Red Sox
defense and almost unaided drove
stahrs two pitchers from the field.
Breaks by Doyle and Merkle cost
nothing. but Wilson'S muff at the
plate was broadside into Giant
hope.
From the Red Sox view Tesreau
and Mathewson have been unable to
beat them and Stahl believes that
O'Brien, Wood and Collins will be
there in the next three starts. Meth
er club has shown anything resemb-
ling the pitching or the general stuff
which featured the first five games
last fall.
This goes except in the batting. In
these two games the Giants have
combed Boston's premier twirlers for
nineteen hits. Against Bender and
Coombs last fall in their first two
starts they made nine hits for ten
bases and but three runs against nine
scored to date.
| Both clubs are hitting the ball,
sousing 1t upon the beak and the two
outfields yesterday we're forced to
pursue triples and doubles until their
tongues hung out.
The Red Sox yesterday out-classed
the Giants in defensive play and
saved far weaker pitching by more
consistent, surer and swifter support.
Wagner especially played brilliant
lly at short where New York was
weakest. In the tenth round Doyle
flashed play that only a great bail
er's far driven triple and Wilson's
muff at the plate had tied the score.
With only one out, Lewis then doub-
led and Mathewson was pitching with
J his back against the wall. Gardner
: followed with crack to right and
the game looked to be over and the
series gone for good. But Doyle
whirling for the drive at top speed
made one desperate lunge, nailed the
ball with one paw and then by a
startling throw out of position. whip
ped 1t to Merkle in time to save the
day and put his pals back in the
fight. If that almost sure hit had
careened on safely New York would
have lost heart-breaking game and
the series would have closed by Sat
urday night as the two clubs are now
! shooting over the trail.
