Matty has always performed best
when his team Is literally up
against it. We had won two vic
tories while the Giants had gath
cred in but one game. Therefore,
if we won the fourth game we were,
practically certain of capturing the
series, while if the New Workers
triumphed they would still have a
grand chance to win out. That is
why McGraw pinned his hopes on
the stalwart Mathewson.

greatest pitchers in the American

Ray Collins had not worked in
the series and was in good con-
dition. We had picked up Collins
