Mclean First in the Fray.

Larry Mclean precipitated the first
war of words In the second inning,
with Zimmerman on first, Schultz
pulled a drive down the right field line.
Mclean Immediately roared Foul!
and Bob Emslie waved Zim back TO
FIRST Heinie, however, kept on run
ming until he reached the midway, and
Schultz kept on 10 first. Then Klein
called that the hit had landed on fair
territory. At once the Giants, almost
10 a man. invaded the field, swarming
around the umpires. They protested
loudly. They executed flank movements
and charged down the centre, but Klein
remained firm.
Then the board Of strategy, repre-
sented by Mike Donlin, rushed on the
field and effected a juncture with Larry
Doyle. They made concerted attack
on Emslie, but were ropuised win
heavy loss. Then they charged klem
again, but were hurled back in contu-
sion. Bill Klein met them with With
ering glances and scornful silence, ana
they melted. Lacking the master mind
of McGraw. the strategical board is ap-
parently in q bad way. To add % the
horrors Of war, Zimmerman stole thlrd
and Schultz pilfered second bo'h
scored on hit by Derrick.
II the Giants snorted and roared IN
the second frame, the Cubs had their
chance in the fifth. They wasted mucn
time arguing TO no purpose. Before
that hectic inning was over the Giants
had scored five runs on four bases on
halls. an error and a weak, puny hit.
The Cubs even fought among them
selves, so high did the battle fever cage
Merkle began with base on balls
Larry Mclean sent a hopper TO the
box. which Pierce fielded in plenty OF
time. but his throw to second was not
perfect, and Sweeney dropped the
throw. Pierce mentioned that handles
would be put on the ball some time
next eason. Sweeney lost no time III
replying. He said he'd as soon bust
left-hander as any one else; Wheh IN
ternal strife ceased Stock drew pass
and MURRAY batted for Fromme and
Thorpe ran for Mclean.
Thorpe Fleet on the Bases.
Murray smashed one down to short
stop. on which Merkle scored easily.
Stock. in sliding into second base, hit
Sweeney, who ran over TO take Der
ricks throw Sweeney was knocked
about. and Thorpe, never hesltatlng at
third, scored
Thorpe's tally was the cause for q
general rumpus. The Cups Claiiieu
ina. time should have been called and
thai linn should be sent back to third.
KLEIN however, said that he had re-
ceivsd no request for time and that the
RIM counted. After much argument
nlax was resumed. From time TO time
later on more talk was heard, but moth
ing came out Of u.
Before that inning was over Pierce
had been ushered out Of the game and
G. ". label pressed into service. He
. had some trouble. but finally managed
J TO retire the side. Casey Hageman
finished.
Arthur Fromme and JEFF Tesreau
divided the pitching labor of the day.
The former receives credit for the vic
tory. since the Giants were ahead be-
fore Tesreau entered. The latter held
the lead after bad sixth inning, in
which two runs counted. An error by
Chief Meyers permitted Zimmerman S
run TO count.
Schultz Back in the Game.
The fans we're glad to welcome
"Wildfre" Frank Schultz back to has
position in right field. Schultz patched
up his differences with Hank O'Day,
and for the time being has abandon ed
the idea OF jumping 20 the Federal
League. He got hit in that loqua-
cious and rather productive second inn
ing and scored run. There was moth
ing for him TO do in the field.
Fred Merkle made one of the fastest
plays Of the season in catching Claude
Derrick at the plate in the fourth inn
ing. With two out, the erstwhile
Yankee doubled to left. Jimmy Archer
drove 10 stock, who made a spectacu-
lar stop, but his heave to first was
wide and high Derrick made third
easily When he saw Stocks throw
was going wide he tried to score.
Merkle. however. made lesping catch,
and almost in the same movement shot
the ball 70 Mclean, getting Derrick by
.half a stride.
George Burns made a good running
estch of a drive by Bill Sweeney that
was billed for the bleaehers.. Derrick
and Sweeney did good work at their re-
spective positions, but on the whole the
