and that one wasn't so not that II famed
its atmospherical path into a fame. II
ran to the scratch. not 10 the screaming
T-ojectile type. 1t rose on a slothful
slant to right and looped its way to the
feet of the outfelder therein stationed,
Who wasn't quite able TO charge up to it.
Bressler threw a %sentient ball. Fired
With great impetus far to larboard. II
raced forward until breaking time, then
broke In without warning TO the right
handed batters and took the plate on "A
Kissing bias. 1t was fine pitching. and
Bcone's single Was the only thump torn
from. II which bore any likeness 10 a hit.
Except twice else the ball wasn't hit
hard enough To afford difficult chances
for the Athletics. Schang had one OF
these and Lajoie one. Otherwise 1t was
like breaking TOOTH icks for the Mack
boys to handle their chances,
Caldwell's pitching would have been
effective ordinarily. The hits of Slim
we're widely strewn and the scoring of
hin just happened. Once he alone VAS
involved, the other time he wasn't blame
w rthy. The Athletics ploughed into
him for two hits in the second inning.
but after two were out, and he had too
much at all times for consecutive hit
ting of consequence to take form.
Caldwell and his infeld mates re-
pelled the Macklads in spectacular style

swift foot TO first base a pass to Schang

was to strike out Walsh. and when
Oidring jumped to Caldwell. the ball as
n smacked into the hand harness OF
Caldwell. Nunamaker and Pipp for a
double play was like a boys trick OF
rafting a stick against the plckets Of a
fence.
Bressler flushed his home run in the
Nth inning with one out. He lifted II
irtc the left field seats. The ball rode
high to get there and II wasn't every
body who knew what had become of IL.
Boone fumbled a grounder on Schang In
the sixth inning. the latter look second

The diamond.
The Yankees had three on bases in
tire sixth. but not at the same time.
Boone made his hit. only TO he forced by
Nunamaker. Caldwell couldn't solve
Bressler and struck out. High waited

with a wild pitch. Nunamaker slid into
third and spiked Schang, who stuck the
inning out. Peck's fly to Oldring was
the end OF the inning.
Maisel. leading off for New York in
the seventh. drew a walk. but three
ground balls. two for forces and one for
an out at first. were Bressler's way of
discriminating the Yanks in that inning
High, leading off in the ninth. walked,
but a strikeout, an out at first. another
walk and a force eradicated the Yanks
