The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1914-10-10

In the ninth Deal. with one out,
doubled, stole, third. James then
struck out for the fourth time; then
Mann singled sharply to left, scoring
Deal. This gave Boston the first run
of the game.
At the end of the fourth inning
neither side had been able to push a
run across the plate, so tight was the
defense of the infield and so effective
the pitching of the opposing slab art
lists.
Fans were on an edge at all stages
awaiting the break that would give
an opportunity to make the premier
run.
When seven innings had rolled by
and neither team had been able to
gain the initial marker that might turn
the tide of battle, rooters went crazy
under the tense excitement. Both
Stallings and Mack, each in his own
way were urging their men to heroic
efforts, but none seemed able to pene-
trate the stonewal defense of the
other.
Both Teams Happy.
I'VE are happy" and I'VE are hope
full were the respective refrains of
Boston and Philadelphia rooters as
they gathered this afternoon for the
second game of the worlds series.
The Bostonians were happy over the
fact that their favorites, the National
league champions, had taken the first
game. The Philadelphians were hope
full that the Athletics, winners of the
American League pennant, would cap
ture today's conflict.
The weather was that of a summer
day. In the shade of the grand stand.
the war correspondents and the
operators worked with their coats off,
and their sleeves rolled up.
Bleachers Filled.
BY II o'clock all the 1000 bleacher
an hour after the sale opened At 7
o'clock this morning there were 1000
in line at the bleacher ticket offices
and several disappointed ones were
turned away, when the tickets were ex-
hausted.
The Boston rooters were greatly in
evidence as the teams went through
their practice. A couple of the royal
rooters" attired themselves as Indian
chiefs and danced exultantly about the
field to the ragtime music of the Bos-
ton band, while the Braves watched
their antics with approving smiles.
Nervousness Gone.
The Boston players yesterday show
ed some signs of nervousness, but to-
day they had all disappeared. In prac-
tice they appeared like a ship that had
found herself" paying no attention
to the batting efforts of the Athletics,
though they watched every movement
of the enemy yesterday. BY the time
the game began the sun was shining
with tho nf lo
flame.
The players sweltered as they dash
ed around the field in practice, but
the heat did not affect their work
The Braves showed some startling
field stunts. The Athletics did not
show as much pep" as their enemies.
but they went at their work with a
grimness and real determination.
