CINCINNATI, July 23-To.days ball

ing Reds was contest part Of the time
and farce part Of the time. AZ the
end OF the second inning the Giants had
a big lead. and though the Reds pulled
1t down bit they couldn't make scrl-
Gus inroads into the lead and the Giants
won as they pleased. The score was 10
to I, and in the last two innings so many
substtutions were made IN both squads
that makeshift teams were IN the field.
The Reds were making changes in the
fo-lorn hope of starting something and
the Giants were making changes to give
regulars chance To rest and zee the re-
mainder OF tho game from the welcome
shade. IL was a broilng hot day.

livered in the second inning. was a lethal
blow to the slim Cincinnati homes of win

bases, and when the tandem rush for tho
pate was over the Giants had enough
