What will probably go down in
history as the most remarkable
game OF ball ever played in a
worlds series was won by the
Giants from the Athletics yester-
day by score OF 3 to o, after ten
innings OF desperate playing.
The end came when Plank
weakened in the final round. He
gave way under the strain which
the brilliant efforts of Christv
Mathewson placed upon him..
For nine innings he had fought
tooth and nail with the Giants

even had an advantage over his
famous rival, who was perform
ing as he seldom had before
Time and time again it seemed
that the breaks would come to
give Plank the victory. but on
each occasion the wonderful
gameness and ability OF Mathew
son came TO his rescue, and he
wriggled out OF what seemed
certain defeat.
One disc ppointment followed another for
Plank, and he failed TO stand up under
the blows he was receiving from Dame
Fortune
In the first and ninth innings the Ath-
Ieucs seemed TO have the game won. vet
Mathewson stopped them at such mo-

That the Athletics were of the opinion
that Mathewson would be pie for them
was. a known fact. The players boosted
before the series that they would drive
Matty from the slab every time that
he showed himself. This confidence was
created by the reports which reached
them that Matty had gone back, and
that he would be an easy proposition
for them. But the Mackmen reckoned
without Matty. The veteran was brilliant
in yesterdays game. He not only look
ed more robust than he has in some
time, but he appeared TO be In better
form. His work in the pinches was
nothing short of marvellous. He did not
seem difficult to hit at times, but when
it came down to trying to get hits which
meant runs he was wonderful per-
former On four different occasions the
Athletics threatened him, but even
though apparently hopeless. Matty work
ed himself out of these holes.
Had McGraw not seen fit to take Snod-
grass out of the game to substitute
Wiltse he could. not have won yester-
days game. Wiltse played d very inn
portant part in the throwing down of the
Athletics. He did some brilliant work
around first base. His stop of Murphy s
grounder, which seemed labeled for a
triple. saved the Giants from being scored
on in the eighth, for Collins and Baker
singled in this round after two were out.
Wiltse. too, threw our two of the Ath-
eties at the plate in the ninth, after
making splendid stops. thus saving Matty.
1t is. perhaps, the first time in the his
tory of the worlds series that pitcher
has played first base. but ii was "A lucky

could not possibly have covered the
ground that Witse did, and as both the
plays at the plate in the ninth required
quick action. Snodgrass would not have
been able to fill the bill. Merkle. even,
could not have played better game of
ball than Wiltse did.
