 With one victory registered for the Red Sox, Manager McGraw sent out his star twirler, Mathewson to cap ture the second game for the Giants.

 Speaker, the Red sox center field CT finished the dramatic climax in the contest where fortune played fickle fa- ,or with first one and then the other team.
 Tied in Ninth
 The ninth inning found the Red Sox and the Giants locked in a tie score of , to B. The Red Sox left handler, Collins. had been driven home from the box in the eighth inning by shower of hits and Hall had been sent to re- iieve him. Merkle smashed out a three bagger in the tenth inning and the home club host was in gloom when he scored on a sacrifice hit
 In the fading light it was difficult | Jor the Red Sox to follow the course | of Mathewson's big drop and New [. ork felt confident. Yerkes had been turned back and the big crowd looked to Speaker. The trio of Giant outergard- eners moved far afield. Mathewson wound up and turned loose fast in- shoot. Speaker gave a wicked swing and the ball was sailing far over Beck CTS head in center. Speaker rounded first, then second and raced to third. The ball caromed to Shafer. who mo- mentarily juggled it. Speaker hesi- tated at third, then sped for the plate and slid under Catcher Wilson, who fumbled Shafer's relay throw. That tied the score and the crowd went wild. TO make sure that he had touched the plate Speaker returned and touched the plate a second time before Wilson re- covered the ball.
 Red Sox fans were loath tonight to give the Giants credit for a game fight
 Red Sox Take Lead
 The Bostons took the lead in the first inning and scored three runs by hitting
  mayed. fought back and by peppering away at Collins delivery, picked up a run in the second and another in the fourth inning Boston tallied another score in the fifth inning, but New York was not 10 be denied and when Duffy Lewis dropped Snodgrass' fly, opening the eighth inning, they started batting bee that caused Manager Stah1 to hurry Hall to Collins relief. Three runs already were over the plate on an error, single and two doubles. This gave New York a lead of one run. The Giants held their lead but a moment. however, for the Red Sox attacked Mathewson's drop curves sav agey and aided by an error by Fletcher the tieing run was sent over the plate. Then came the exciting tenth, with Mer- kle's hit and Speakers mighty smash to the center field fence.
 Fletcher was broken hearted tonight over his poor game at shortstop for New York. Two of his three glaring errors aided materially in the making of runs by the Red Sox.
 Wagner Stars
 Wagner starred at shortstop for Boston, accepting ten chances and executing a brilliant play in the ninth inning, when on the dead run he speared Fletcher's grounder with his gloved hand, turned and with rifle shot throw that Stahl also took with one hand nailed Fletcher at first base.
 There was an unusual lot of base steal ing in the game for a world series con test, five bags being pilfered. Of these Hooper stole two and Stahl one for the Red Sox, while Snodgrass and Herzog each beat Carrigan's throws.
 Hooper for the Red Sox had a field day. He knocked out three hits, stole two bases. scored once and gathered in three flies in the outheld. Murray and Herzog were the heavy hitters for the Giants Murray duplicated his telling work of yes terday with the stick by hammering out single double and triple. Herzog also got 8 single, a two bagger and a three base hit and sent up a sacrifice fly op- portunely. Mathewson's control was per feet he did not issue a base on balls and famed four men. Doyle played scintil- lating game at second for New York.
 McGraw Confident
 ''we have stopped the Red Sox on their home grounds" said Manager McGraw tonight. ''and the team IS very well sats- fled. We have shown that the Giants were game and that gameness is going to count great deal more before the series Is over"
 'The Red Sox have always felt that Mathewson was the noe man to beat, said Manager Jake Stahl. "I think to- days game while 1t did not end in a vic- tory, shows that we can hit the New York twirler. whose work today must have tired him out"
 Boston handled the big crowd without trouble. With the exception of a few bare spots in the outfeld stands every seat was taken. Tickets brought three times the regular price of 8 for the grand stand The total paid attendance today was a014s, with total receipts of ,369 of which the players share was s31 26 and each club received s105o6.42. The Ma tional commissions share was s5S36.3o.
 There was just as much ceremony in starting the game today as there was in New York yesterday. with the added fea- fure of several hundred Red Sox rooters marching into the ground behind brass band playing lively march. The ''rah. rah. rah'' of the loyal supporters of the American league champions re-echoed back and forth as the home team took the oeld.
 Umpire "sik"' o'Loughln announced That ball that went into a small tempor- ary stand that extended along the left field bank would count for a two base hit and a drive into the stands in center and right field would go for home run
