BOSTON. oct. Is. - Ernie Shore,
the youthful risht-hander. got an OPP
pOrtunity Tuesday afternoon 10 re-
Venge himself for the beating the
Phillies gave him on Friday and he
seized IT, winning TO i in a pitching
duel with George Chalmers
The series count now is three 20 one,

nesday afternoon they Will rule as
kings of the baseball world before the
setting Of Wednesdays sun.
Failure TO hit in the pinches is the
reason the Phillies lost. They had at
least five fine chances TO score or
forge ahead but only once was the
timely wallOp produced and that WAS
in the eighth inning when Luderus
singled following Cravath's triple.
scoring Cactus" with the only Phiile
tally of the game.
Lewis Again Hero.
Duffy Lewis, the hero of Mondays
battle, earned a few more laurel
leaves Tuesday. He saved the game
by a remarkable running catch and
then won II in the sixth with a slash
ing two bagger that scored HObltzel
from first.
Pat Moran entrusted the pitching
chores 10 George Chalmers ana he
made a wise choice Chalmers pitched
a fine game and had there been any
pinch hitting behind him he would
have won.
The Phillies committed the same aw-
ful error that they have been commit
ting since the series began. They have
been waiting out the Boston pitchers
and the Boston pitchers fooled them.
The Phillies instead Of taking swipes
at good looking heave, let them go
by in the hope that il would be called
a ball. The Red Sox pitchers got
'.hep" early TO the waiting out" plan
of the Phillies and instead of wasting
a few pitches, are growing the ball for
called strikes.
PhiIlies should Stag.
If the Philiies. from the outset Of
the series had gone out TO bust every
ball that has come anywhere near
them, the series would look different
" than il looks now. The Phillies
have the kind of pitching that would
have won nine ball games out OF ten
with any hitting behind the pitchers.
Int hitting has been "a minus quality.
Shore put the ball in the groove for
the Phillies this afternoon every time
he could. Did the PhilHes swat at all
OF these grooved balls? No. they
didn't. They just watched them go
By for celled strikes that put them in
a mole and gave Shore a big edge.
The crowd that saw the game was
not as sizeable as on Monday which
seemed rather strange in view Of the
fact that this was a holiday.
Few Exciting Plays.
The game was one To watch and
spotted with a few startling plays but
IL lacked the thrills and the dramatics
of Monday and the crowd as result
showed enthusiasm only ON two or
three occasions.

two chances for the Phillies To score.
