as Meyers swung for Lewis who slid
all over the lot, hut O'Loughlin gave
Lewis safe. 1t looked as II Meyers had

a scratch hit by Stahl made more

of calling balls and strikes, with Rigler

the new ball at 2:05 o'clock and two
minutes later O'Loughlin called play.
When the Giants had been retired
O'Loughln saw several Photographers
squatting on the turf, Taking off his
mask and waving his arms impctuously,
the chief umpire cried loudly:
"All you picture guys get OF the field.
We won't continue until you have climbed
into the stands
When Sir Christopher Mathewson
walked to the box to begin his battle
against the Red Sox New York and Bos-
ton fans alike applauded the popular
pitcher. In fact Matty as the game pro-
gressed was repeatedly cheered by Boston
partisans who admired him for his pluck
and remembered his great record on the
diamond,
Matty began so unsteadily that after
the Red Sox had scored their three runs
in the first inning New York fans began
to lose heart They were sure that Matty
had nothing" His speed appeared to he
lacking, also his fadeaway. but as the
veteran warmed to his work In the next
three innings confidence In him was re-
stored But all through the game the Red
Sox hit him fiercely
Speakers triple IN the tenth inning was
attributed to the fact that Matty grooved
one for the big batsman. This hit. by the
way, almost involved the teams I'm a fight
on the field, In fact the rival players to-
night discussed nothing else, there being
considerable I'll feeling for the first time
in the series, Speaker maintains that as
he rounded third base Herzog purposeIy
gave him the shoulder" II was plain
case OF interference, according to the Red
Sox. and helped to make the decision at
the plate 80 close that some OF the Giants
insist that Speaker should have been
called out by O'Loughin. While Speaker
and other Boston players were claiming
interference by Herzog Doyle threw the
ball to Merkle and declared that Speaker
had not touched first base, Rigler couldn't
see II that way and Doyle was as mad
as halter
Before tho Bostons took the field for the
eleventh inning Speaker and Herzog cam,
together near third base. Speaker made
"A threatening move toward the New York
third basoman, who seemed ready to pro-
tect himself Players OF both teams

friends with them all. He began to warm
up with Wilson just to show these Bos-
ton people that his arm wasn't tired and
that he still had lots of speed. despite
his hard game ~ yesterday AS the big
fellow fired the ball with terffice momen-
tum into Wilson's mitt the Boston fans
looked on In admiration a.id cordially ap

The Giants wore their gray travelling
