~Raf4tr up, Who's the hitter?" said
six 20 'Loughlin every now and again
At Ks Polo Grounds yesterday as ne
sur6d 20 the bench Of the Yankees.
Th4 question defed answer. None Of
Cfknee's men looked guilty, and the
sven thousand jurors in the stand
&ere willing TO Acquit them, one and
all. But in the ninth inning Of the
second game q clear case was estsb-
iished against Roy Hartzell, an old Of
fender. for he met the first ball pitched
~ Bedient and drove it into the right
field stand for a home run.
Hartzell's hit gave the Yankees an
even break with the Red SoX in
double-header. The score of the sec
ond game was to 2, while Boston took
the first encounter al 10 0. II was
the first afternoon az home of the Yam
KEGS since their trip in the West.

the batters seemingly vieing with one
another for altitude. So effective was
the pitching Of Dutch" Leonard in this
contest that only four assist were made
by the Red Sox, and JRnvrin, at first
base, had just three put-outs. The
fielding feature was a one-hand eaten
by Duffy" Lewis.
Pete Daley. formerly Of the Ath-
leties. who came 70 the Yankees in eX-
change for Jimmy Walsh, made his
first home appearance His reduced
circumstances have not hurt his dispo-
sition in the least for he figures that,
though he may lose something in world
series money this season, he has q
good chance 70 be in on the ground
floor when the Yankees win the pen
uant.
Though both battles on the diamond
we're hard fought, neither could quite
equal the struggle which arose in the
press box in the second inning Of the
final game. A play OF the sort which
the syndicate men devise at space rates
10 annoy the fans on Monday morning
caused all the trouble.
With Yankees on first and third and
one out, Ray Heating hit hy TO right
field. Harry Williams, who was on
first. ran headlong down 10 second,
long before the catch was made, and
Hooper. instead Of throwing 20 the
plate. tossed the ball TO first base for
a double play. Janvrin was slow in
covering the bag. and before the out
could be made Pete Daley had scored
from third
Tho umpire allowed the run, but sew
eral experts dissented. 81 saw a similar
play in ST. Louis in 1892 said sta
tistical expert, "and the umpire gave
il the other way
"The Yankees need the rum" said
scntimentalist.
"The league owes them a living"
said a socialist. and then came the
man who carries the rule book in his
Rack pocket. "See section SO" was all
he said. and there ono might read: "a
force out can be made only when
base runner legally loses the right 10
the base he occupies by reason Of the
bAtsman becoming a base runner" And
there you arr.
The Red Sox won the first game
when they scored three times in the
fifth inning. Janvrin doubled and
took third when NInemaker made
bad throw TO catch him mapping.
Gardeners in6eld hit scored Jsnvrin,
and then came Herkes with home run
into the left field stand.
In the second game q double by
Daley, single by Harry Williams and
Keating's fy produced a run in the
second inning. Singles by Thomas and
Foster and an indeld out enabled Bos-
ton 20 score the tieing run in the third.
Both sides scored once in the seventh.
Janvrin's single and steal and Gard
ner's double against the left field fence
were the factors in Boston's run, while
hits by Hartzell, Daley and Sweeney
sent a Yankee home. Daley's drive
would not have been a hit II Speaker
had not misjudged il, making up for
some amazing catches which he made
earlier in the day.
George Foster, Of the Red Sox, was
injured in fielding the ball, and had to
retire IN the nth inning. The teams
will play n double header to-day.
The score follows:
