White Sox Victory In
Pitching Battle.
nv HEYwOoD BRoUN.


ur, Scott Is Jealous OF his reputation
as traveller. The pitcher OF the White
sox has been all the way around the
world. but second base was the limit ne
nut upon the journeyings OF the YANKEES
ysstersav. Chicago won the game by a
score OF 20 o.
For the Yankees the day was the second
Sabbath In the week. What little WORK
vas done by Chances hired men all came
clearly under the head of necessary lapor'
Scott broke the day OF rest every once
and again by throwing TO first and catch-
ing base runner mapping. but on the
other hand it was Scott who made the
afternoon so easy for the home laos
The Yankees were not compelled TO run
about the bases 20 any extent In iact
onlv four men reached first, and three OF
them were nipped in straying too far
off that bag Truesdale was caught '"ioe
In all twenty eight Yankees came 10 oa'
Scott struck out seven men ana passeu

Whenever Hal Chase reached down 10

him Of seeking to square grudge agaihs.
the city which cast forth the prince OF
first basemen.
parhsps Chase is not a prince but only
q nr.tender. The four thousand fans VINO
went 70 the Polo Grounds yesterday re-
fused TO acknowledge the claims OF Prince
rel, and stated that they wouio nave io
nrst base king save only Jake Dauoei''
and yte II was a bonny day ior 'ho
claimant from Chicago He maoe the
first hit for his side and the last put-oo',
catching the ball close to the stand ana
xrinnins derisively at the fans IN the
stands who had hooted him.
II. had no hard chances TO test MS
skill. but In his play there was all y.
the old manner which made picture "
every pickup and pose OF every his"
throw. Still he excelled, even IN neiu
ubere there is no column at all for man
nsr or for grace. In the box score ne was
credited with two hits and a stolen Dase'
Other White Sox rival Chase In grace
fuIness. II Keats had only lived on uh''l
the days OF the five star final extras ne

And there are a lot Of folks alive to-day
who can see more art in one-hahu
scoon by buck" Weaver than In any
nbsse Of human action frozen into mar
BILE by Rodin.
The game itself was simple Ihe yam
kees seemed TO have exhausted all their
stock of hits and runs and errors ana
eyerything else which make good oase-
ball. 1t was the sort OF a contest which
might be played in the Islands OF the
blessed-tust perfect
Little Jack Warhop underhanded the
ball across the plate in effective fashlon
and deserved a better fate. The one run
scored against him was made in the fourth
inning. Buck" Weaver pummelled a
two-base hit into right centre field, and
as Peckinpaugh tossed out Chase, Weav-
CT ran down to third. Collins sent mid
ding long fly into left, and Weaver set
sail for the plate as soon as Jimmy Walsh
made the catch.
Walsh threw home on line. but the
ball bounded bit high 1t would have
been a close play II jay Rogers had held
the ball. but 1t slipped away from him
and Weaver was safe.
The members OF the Baltimore ana
Providence International League clubs
having an off day watched the game.
