Shore Gets Revenge on
Pat Moran's Phillies
Youthful Right-hand Hurler
of Red Sox Holds Quakers
Safe in Pinches.
LEWIS AGAIN THE STAR
By FRANK G. MENkE.

Boston, Oct. 12.-Ernie Shore, the
youthful right-hander. got an opportunity
| this afternoon to revenge himself for
| the beating the Phillies gave him on FRI
| day and he seized It, winning, to /, in
| a pitching duel with George Chalmers.
The series count now is three to one
in favor OF the Red Sox. due to their
! three straight to l victories. and un-
less Grover Alexander can hurl back
| their advance in Philadelphia tomorrow
afternoon. they will rule as kings Of the
baseball world before the setting of to-
morrow's sun
Failure to hit In pinches is the reason
the Phillies lost today. 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. fol-
lowing Cravath's triple. scoring Cactus"
with the only Phillie tally of the game.
Duffy Lewis, the hero of yesterdays
game. earned a few more laurel leaves
this afternoon. He saved the game by
| remarkable running catch and then
| won it in the sixth with sashing two
bagger that scored Hoblitzel from first.
Chalmers shows Form.
Pat Moran entrusted the pitching
chores to George Chalmers and he made
a wise choice. Chalmers pitched a fine
game, and had there been any pinch hit
ting behind him he would have won.
The Phillies this afternoon committed
I the same awful error that they have
been committing 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 it 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.
If the Phillies from the outset Of the
series had gone out TO bust every base
ball that has come anywhere near them
the series would look differently than 1t
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. but hitting has been
a minus quality.
Shore put the ball in the groove for
the Phillies this afternoon every time
he could. Did the Phillies swat at all
of those groove balls? No. they didn't.
They just watched them 60 by for called
strikes that put them in a hole and
gave Shore big edge.

Shore permitted the Phillies seven hits
