Tho Giants utilized tho superior pitch
inf Of JEFF TCsreau yesterday to Cantcr
along to an easy victory over the Brooltlyns
In the first game of double header. The
score was To- /. and there was no New
York pitching weakness IN that game. The
Brookyns won the second game. . to /,
and again there was little to complain
OF In the home twirlug. Tho New York
pitching staff. taken as body, is in an
unbalanced and uncertain condition, but
with Tesreau, the best pitcher on the home
stan right now and one of the hest in
the National League, operating in the
first game and Demarec in the second
the slab was well enough supervised for
the Giants to have won both games.
Batting weakness was why they lost
the second setto. synonymous with that
batting weakness was clever and crafty
pitching by rat Raglan. The Giants, who
expended most of their scoring energy
and vim in the first affair could do so
little with Raglan In the second that the
good pitching of Al Demaree was thrown
away. Dcmaree, just back from Chicago,
where his brother died last saturday, was
better than he has been in weeks even II
cudgelled for a short but successful rally
in the second inning.
The score board brought 20 light an
interesting roofing ducllO. There was
fervent cheering when the Philles took
the lead In Boston, showing that loyalty
TO the team that has won three pennants
for New York is SIN existent, and just
as exultant yells when the Bostons took
the lead The Giants al home are play
ing TO a good deal of divided sentiment
these days. which perhaps is penalty OF
repeated success. There were brooklyn
rooters there, of course, and maybe they
brought some OF their boroughly loVe with
them.
The Dodgers lodged Jefrs ravaginE split
ter go successfully with their bats in the
FIRST game that they culled three hlts.
one was a triple by Stengel In the hrst
inning, which was wasted. Another was
a homer by Wheat In tho seventh inning
Cutshaw made single right after IL.
but a one handed catch by Doyle blocked
further Brooklyn ACKNOWLEDGMENT
Fletcher tripled in the second inning
and had to foot fast to score on Murray =
Nv to Stengel. Tesreau chopped an inheld
nit in the third. Allen made mistake
taking his time on this ball. Tesreau -
no slow coach for leviathan. He beat
the throw and he piled to third on nit
10 right by Snodgr2ss. He scored on
Burnss single to Getz. and Snodsrass
scored when Fletcher slashed two bag
ger 10 right, winch DOuHhtu pshuiS "s I'N
bert clutched at II.
F1etcher's walk. Murray's sacrifice.
Stocks single and home run by Merkle
inside the playing field enriched the Giants
with two tallies in the sixth. Milton
stock reappeared at third In the hrss
game and made several spruce stops
Eddie Grant was back at the tertiary
nook in the second game and guarded II
and It's envrons admirably. on Miller
in the third inning he made a stop WIN
the left hand, a shift TO the right ana q
throw compound feat which was the
essence of duickness.
The Brooklyns made their two runs IN
the fourth inning on hitting which was
clean while It lasted. Daubert drove &c
right and went to third on Stengels rhr
10 centre. Wheat was hit, and when
Cutshaw grounded to Doyle for force
Daubert came In Gez up ana sinache'
a single to right and scored Stengel.
A poor decision by Emsie in the hftf
allowed the Brooklyns TO get away with q
double play. with Robertson on hrst ano
none out Grant hit to Cutshaw Cutsha"
reached for Robertson on the line, The
latter didn't run out OF line, and there
was daylight between him ana the Dali
sun Ernslie called him out and the throw
TO first doubled Grant.
There was bad play by the Giants II

Daubert was up and It was his place Il

1t remained for reserve to circle III
bases for New York. Bescher doubled 4
the eighth, and although he led off he ha
a hard time getting home. Snodgras
struck out on "A foul tip. and Doyle was 3
fused up when Klein called head hig

While still frettng he struck out Burn
scored Bescher with a single and the
seoie second. Fletcher was outguessed b
