Moran Of Boston, the first man UP,
let Bender's opening pitch go by for
a strike. The second pitch was a foul
strike, the third a ball, the fourth
a foul and then he sent up a high
foul fly to McInnis, and the Athletic
rooters cheered. Captain Evers was
given a hand by the crowd as he s.ep-
ped to the plate and shot high fly to
Collins, who had to step backwards
to get it. Connolly, the heavy hitting
outfelder, was next up. He took
strike and after fouling off another,
missed Benders next offering and the
side was out.
Eddie Murphy, for the Athletics, let
the first ball pitched by Rudolph go
for strike, but he laced the second
to center field. Oldring laid down a
sacrifice in front of the plate and
Gowdy made a high throw to first

and put his foot on first base for the
out. Murphy taking second Eddie

him, thus completing a double play
and ending the inning.

Bender. After Schmidt had lifted a
fly to Oldring, Gowdy came to time
with vicious two-base drive to left
center field and Whitfield rushed all the
way home with the first run of the
game. Little Maranville started a tre-
mendous outburst of cheering by the
Boston fans by shooting a single to
center field and Gowdy raced across
the plate with the second tally Deal
ended the inning by hitting into a
double play, forcing Maranville at
second, Barry to Collins and going
out himself, Collins to McInnis.

settle the first case. he had made over
certain hay, ETC., to the bank. When

Braves and once they had seen his offer

OF Athletic supporters who thronged the

triples rang off their bats. flashing over

ME Mack signalled the chief to give way
to Wyckoff, and thus broke the record
of never having removed a pitcher from

the box in the 1911 series against the
Giants was due to an injury and not to
any faltering in his pitching game. After

little or nothing on the ball. Mack

work with the stick themselves and said
that, while he looked forward to a hard

field and at bat. Catcher Gowdy OBJ
