TOE WOOD was in the box for Bos-
ton and Cady was behind the bat.
y Smoky joe wound himself up
with great elaboration and then
hurled the ball toward the plate with
tremendous speed. Murphy let It pass
without making a move.

crashed into Cadys mitt with loud
noise.

Wood tried to sneak over a curve
for the third strike, but Murphy con-
nected with it and raped a sharp
grounder to Wagner. The Boston
shortstop handled it as though 1t was
the Winning ticket in the Honduras
lottery, but threw the ball FIVE feet
over the chunky Engle's head. That
error was the only one charged
against Boston in the game, but for
unexcelled rankness It deserved a
blue ribbon Engle turned and chased
the ball. mutterlng imprecations. but
before he recovered it Murphy was
rolled a slow grounder to Yerkes and
was out at first. but Murphy reached
third on the play, Eddie Collins drove
a long fly to Speaker and Murphy
crossed the plate with the first run
of the game.
The Quaker section in the grand
stand went wild with delight. Home
Run" Baker was the next man to
face Wood. He was implored to knock
the ball into the Harlem River, but
the best he could do was to put up
fly a furlong high, which fell into
the extended mauleys Of Larry Gard
ner, the Red Sox third baseman.
Jack Coombs hero OF many a ball
game, was Connie Mack's selection
for slab duty and Lapp was the
catcher assigned to hold the Maine
boys delivery. Coombs began like
whirlwind and the first three Red
Sox batsmen were retired in order.
The Athletics could do nothing
with Woods speed in the second in
ming and not man reached first.
The Red Sox then took their second
crack at the ball. Duffy Lewis be-
gan we'll by pushing the ball over
second base for single. Gardner
put the runner on second with a neat
bunt which Coombs threw to first,
retiring the runner. Engle swung
hard and shot a liner to Oldring
which. however, did not advance
Lewis. Wagner then stepped to the
plate, and after missing two swings,
doubly made up for his error by driv-
ing the ball into the right field seats
for a clean home run, scoring Lewis,
ahead of him. While Wagner was
trotting around the bases the Boston
contingent made the afternoon hid
eous with a series of ear splitting
yells.
''Heinie don't make 'em often. but
when he does, they count" observed
President McAleer of the Boston club,
as soon as he could make himself
heard. He was seated In a box with
crowd of State Street brokers.
That home run gave the Red Sox
the lead, to 1. From that time on
1t was a battle to the death. Both
Wood and Coombs worked like pow
erful machines and there were
mighty few safe hits made by either
team. As inning after inning passed,
with neither side able TO add to the
score, a worried look came into
Manager Connie Mack's face. He
