The sun. [volume] (New York [N.Y.]) 1833-1916, 1914-09-10

Everything the Brooklyns hit at the
Polo Grounds yesterday became base
hit, everything except few outs. Some
Of their hitting was clean and hard and
some was scratchy and lucky. but there
was enough OF both kinds for them to
romp away from the Giants, They won
by score of TO ,. punching their hits
three times for as many scoring epochs.
This was one of the days on which the
erratic Brooklyn team. with the once in
while ability. had good day The
Giants, utterly unable to hit together or
hit often. were left far in the lurch.
Martin O"Toole worked hard to hold the
Dodgers in check. but they either couldn't
do anything against him or they slammed
him With men on bases they were at
their slammiest They made long line
hits and they made fluke hits which skated
and skiddtd on the infield grass in such
a way as to keep the flelders from hand
ling them. Fletcher and Grant were much
harassed by such hits
Pfefer. who pitched capably for the
Brooklyns, will be known as a Giant killer
II he keeps on. Every time some pitcher
comes along and shows a fairly frequent
tendency to win from the New York team
he Is called a Giant killer. There have
been several of them. A very popular
and much mouthed phrase in the provinces
this. Giant killer IL means somebody Is
beating the Giants and that's great stuff
for the whistllng stations.
O'Toole ran into the first hostile erup-
ton in the third inning. Pfeffer ignited
the fuse He lunged at a high one and
banged single to tight. Mclean made
quick work of Dalton's sacrifice. Daubert
laid down another bunt and II was a
beauty-good gold. Stengel slugged.
