game for Philadelphia by letting an
unnecessary run score while he held
the ball after recovering the hit that
ought to have won the game.
Evers 6tunders, Then Elts.
But Evers made up for that lapse
OF mind by ringing a vicious base hit
: In the home tenth, which put the
tying tally where long fly scored it
Manager Stallings picked Tyler tc
face the Athletics in this crucial bat
tie Tyler was hit harder than either
!, Rudolph or James had been. The
Athletics touched Tyler's southpaw
stuff for eight safeties, including -four
/ doubles, and made them count.
i Joe Bush, who delivered a great
game against the Giants last year
was Connie Mack's choice for the
fierce test today. He pitched a
splendid game, and would probably
have been returned winner If he had
given Gowdy four bases on balls In
stead OF one, but he didn't. Bush was
/, nervous and unsteady in the early
rounds For four innings he was In
the hole to the batsman much OF the
time, and looked as IL he was going
to crack almost any time
Joe Bush Overconfident.
BY the fifth inning he gained conf
dence and went like q whfrlwind until
the Athletics won the game for him
then Bush apparently was oyerconfi
dent, for he lost both effectiveness
and control and proved incapable OF
stopping Boston's vicious rally. In the
last half Bush himself made the first
Athletic error and let in the winning
tally with wild throw
No more bitter pin ever was fed o
dying patient than the erumbiine
worlds champions were forced &c
swallow in that finish today.
After twice falling TO hold an ad
vantage of one run, they went into
the tenth with frantic detefmiA atiOn
and convinced every one they were
going to claim at least one game out
of this series.
Looked All Over IN Tenth.

that tenth round with slashing sin
gle to left. Bush struck out, tryfne
to advance his backstop to Within
scoring distance; but Tyler nearly de
feated himself by q headless play or
Murphy's grounder. Although II came,
to Tyler on q quick hop, the pitcher
failed 20 see that it was a flitland1 run
play, and elected TO try to force SchanPi
at second, but the runner beat that
play by a couple of steps. Maranyifk

ing the pill to first, but Murphy's speed
etlabled him to beat It.

the series, then smashed a redhot one
back at the pitcher, but Tyler checked.
its speed just enough to enable Evers,
to make swell play and cut off the
hit, retiring RHbe at first while tho
other runners advanced.
Bases Fali-eaker %.
Collins refused to be worked byI
bad balls. so Tyler passed him, filling
the circuit and bringing up Baker. Nc
more dramatic scene can be imagined
than this which Tyler faced. With
the score knotted, the bases full, two
men out and the famous hone-runl
slugger at bat. Twice in the earlier,
rounds Tyler had set Baker down on
strikes, making him look badly, but
in the ninth the sIuGger had come
through with a vicious double The |
southpaw made his adversary hit and
q nasty hot bounder resulted. I. went
to Evers' feet on the fly, then took
q crooked jump and carofned safely
Oft Johns shins, letting Schang race
home with the run that broke the long
tie.
Disconnected and shaken by the
force of the hit, Evers lost his held |
