AS FLY CATCHER
ritz Maisel Brightens Contest by
Killing O.: Run with a
Star Play.

Flatbush will have 10 wait for its cham
non after all. Brooklyn won yesterdays
anne from the Yankees at Ebbets Field
y score Of 10 4 and the series is
ow tied. There will be no relief until
Saturday.
With I'VE errors scattered among the
ankees. il is possible TO blame ever so
nany players for the defeat. but the
OK score, like justice, is not so keen
ighted after all. and overlooks some Of
ne most telling miscues. So it was yes
arday
Doc" Cook was in his most malasial
orm. Cook is fast man and once ran
he hundred for Vanderbilt University
ten seconds fat. Seemingly neither
us eourse,in college or on the track con-
-inced him that straight line is the
hortest distance between two points.
His system of chasing flies yesterday
vas TO run as rapidly as possible in
weeping circle. If the ball CHANGED TO
ONE down at the point which the fielder
rad reached in his tour he caught It. II
lot he chased ii.
Daubert profited twice by Cooks poor
ielding. getting two cheap doubles, both
Il which figured in the run making. At
he bat. however, Cook got his revenge.

good for three bases

Boone, christened luke but Daniel Tor
ewspaper purposes, made his local
lebut at second base. He erred once on
slow hit ball through over-eagerness,
Ut his expected weakness at the pat
id not develop. He got one hit and
wice showed ability IN bunting.
Boone is a thickset youngster with
shoulders plenty big enough to keep the
cutfelders from playing in close for him.
Like the day, the game was COM
bination Of sunshine and shadows. Fritz
Maisel was responsible for the brightest
CLINT OF the afternoon. The play he made
was so fine a one that a worlds series
nd have been at stake, with a half
ldred thousand fans TO thrill with the
uty Of IL.
ne bases were full OF Brooklyn players
d not a man was out when Cutshaw
ioisted a high twisting foul back OF third
lase. Masel turned and charged toward

through the concrete wall. Checking
himself just a pace from the wall, he
,aught the ball. Miller. on third, darted
or home. but the third baseman wheeled
Ike a polo pony. His throw beat the
runner TO the plate by just a pace, and
Sweeney tagged out the rival catcher.
Wilbert Robinson loudly insinuated that
he umpire had robbed Brooklyn. Rob
nson was mistaken. The theft was
Maisers.
] Others did their share toward bright
tning the afternoon. Dick Egan needed
lnly one hand to scoop up several
smashes hard hit 20 the left Of him. apd
STENCIL raced TO the fence in right TO
pull down a long drive from the bat Of
Peckinpaugh.
Eeulbach ond McHale who faced each
other in the first game OF thu series
went at II again. McHale. in spite of his
defeat. had hit the better of the pitch
ing duel. but could not overcome the bad
support behind him.
II was see-saw contest. with the
Markets forcing the issue most of the
way. The run which gave Brooklyn the
game was scored N the seventh unde-
servedly. With two out, Cutshaw singled
10 right and came home on double
by Daubert which should have been an
easy catch for Cook
Charles n. EDbets. who was getting
lust a bit weakened over his pennant
prophecy, is now himself again. The
superbas will meet the Athletics at Eb-
bets Field to-day.
Don't wait until the worlds series;
beat those fellows now is the instruc-
ton Mr.. Ebbets has given to his men.
The score follows.
BROOKLYN. YANKEES.
