The Giants ana the soreel,,
FACED in one of the most H TlSts
fought games of the year at EOO foT
Fieid yesterday. There was reason s5sSno1 1Ss

NV we're fighting to remain IN nrs'
-iscs and BROOKLYN was struggling 70
koon ont of the cellar. The engage
Voc6t was decisive The Giants are
sill first and Brooklyn is now last
New York won by a score OF 70 D.
Marty OTOole, the reformed Flrate'
made his first appearance with the
Giants He did not look bit IKE a
PLAYER costing S22,500, for he pltehed
Very we'll. although he was tremeh-
dously hard pressed by the foemen. .
Inside baseball was the undolng OIL
the Superbas. They never tried TRICK
hut il went wrong, and, worse yeSs
each failure led to the banishment OIL
one or more men. Fortunately, their
bsC Of tricks was exhausted ere the
end Of the game or Brooklyn might not
have had enough men to man the ola-
,nond AS it was, Otto Miller was on
6rst base in the closing innings IN
Mace of the banished Jake Dauoerr'
and Jcbn Hummel was the successor
az nick Egan at shortstop. Wilbert
Robinson was chained to the bench
Strategy Goes Wrong.
The first bit of strategy which went
Hrong occurred in the seventh inning
when. with Merkle on first and nobody
out. Getz purposely dropped hign
1v from Movers and tried for double
play. Daubert, however, instead OF nrst
touching Merkle and then stepping on
the bag to get Meyers reversed Ine
process, and Quigley very properly re-
fused to call Merkle out, contenGlhg
that Merkle was not forced since
Movers had first been put out.
Jake Daubert overstepped parlia-
rnentary etiquette in debating the
point and was ousted. In the next mn
imp Brooklyn tried the hidden ball
trick. Doyle was on second and Burns
on first when Otto Miller secreted the
bal and Reulbach walked back TO the
box as if intent on pitching. The Dig
tw;rler put both feet on the rubber
aud as soon as he assumed pitching
pose calculated to fool the base run
ners Eason called q balk.
From the bench, and even from the
furthermost confines Of the outheld,
Brooklyn players ran IN to protest. MAI
Eason defended his position strongly,
and the loss of the attacking force "as
very heavy. Wilbert Robinson was sent
to the bench. The salaries OF umplres
in the National League are not an
vouncpd hut whatever they may be
OuiRley and EaSon earned their daily
stipend Yesterday. The Giants Iked
them no better than did the Superbas,
and there was no let up in the sortleS'
charges. assaults and raids upon the
officials from all sides.
From the New York point OF view:
next to the very promising start OF
Marty O'Toole, the most pleasing thlng
was the batting of Larry Doyle. Larry
js himself again. On Thursday ne maze
four hits in two games, and Yesterday
be made that number In one. And every
drive was a sincere and honest Smash,
starting low, ending far away ana NOV
ing fast from the point of lncepuon-Jo

O'TocIe Shows Control.
In one respect the advent of Marty
o,Toole is to be regretted. No longer
