OF the game was merely home run
however, it carried no thrill to the
multitude. in fact the multitude had
commenced to thin out by that time.
There was rioting at the gates of
the Polo Grounds before the game
The police fell upon the spectators,
who had been infesting Eighth avenue
since the series opened, and endeav-
ored to clear them out.
The wonderful game at Philadelphia
yesterday brought the crowd out look
ing for more excitement and they
were not wholly disappointed. Sever
al persons tainted in the stands and a
band played variety of hymns and
popular ditties. The upper runways
were still damned with people, seek.

Eddie Murphy had in the meantime

Oldring on third as result of Col
Inns drive and with Big Jeff Tesreau
stamping around on the mound like
an Infatuated buffalo, made activity
begin out in far rightfield where the
Giant pitchers wait during game. 1t
is known as "lookout station" and the
crowd could see Otis Crandall. Alder;
Demaree and Rube Marquard busily
warming up.
Baker swung twice at Tesreaus Of
fering and then hit the next ball pitch
! ed for a single to left. Oldring raced
home with the first run and Collins
| took second. A double steal by Col
Inns and Baker was made easy by the
fact that Mclean dropped the ball
hurled by Tesreau. Mc1nnis has
not figured in this series as much as
was expected Mclean dropped a
third strike and had to toss the ball
to Merkle to get the little doorkeeper
of the Mack men.
| FLETCHER made magnificent stop
of Amos Strunk's slow roller and then
threw the ball over Merkle's head. 1t
bounded away to the boxes back OF
first and Collins and Baker scored.
Strunk moved up to second, but Bar
ry merely topped to Fletcher.
1t was at once the beginning and

though the three-run lead did not at
first strike the Giant sympathizers as
overwhelming in view of the fact that
Mack intended starting a youngster.
1t is probable that Bush and Schane
are the youngest battery that ever
worked in worlds series. And it is
certain that Tesreau and Mclean are
the weightiest men that ever teamed
in such struggle.
AS Bush trotted to the box and the
100000 infield formed in order be-
hind him, an unusual chatter arose
from McInnis, Collins, Black Jack
Barry and Baker, all talking to the
youngster in an encouraging manner
After two were out in the second in
ming Murphy, Oldring and Collins pill
ed on Tesreau. Murphy beat out
blow to Fletcher and too third on Old
rings single to right. Oldring stole
second. Then Eddie Collins raped
drive to center and two more runs
were across the plate for the Macl
men. Doyle made remarkable stol
on Bakers smashing drive acros:
second, Larry almost falling on hi
face as he plunged forward and go
the ball. All he had to do was to steI
on second for a forced play on Col
