The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1915-10-11

Evans, right field.
BOSTON, Oct. boston to-
day beat Alexander in a garrison
ninth inning finish.
Moreover, they beat the Phila-
delphia marvel fairly and square
ly. scoring the winning run on a
single, sacrifice, a walk and an
other single.
As Hooper dashed over the
plate with the winning tally, the
vast Boston crowd broke out of
the stand and onto the field, wild
with delight.
In the ninth, Hooper singled
and Scott laid down a perfect sac
rifice. Big Speaker was walked,
and Alex breathed more easily
when Hoblitzell went out, Me
hoff to Luderous. But here
Duffy Lewis busted into the spot
light with a sizzling single that
brought Hooper over the plate.
The game was over, the series
stood two for Boston and one for
Philly, and the mighty Alex had
been beaten. Red Sox rooters
were unrestrained in their Joy.
Alexander was outpitched by
Leonard, the youthful lefthander
allowing but three hits to the
veterans six. While Alexander
garnered but four strikeouts and
walked two, Leonard made six
batters Whit and gave not sim
gle free trip. But the fact that
Boston was hitting 'em in the air
was shown by Luderus' record OF
but three putouts at first.
Crowd Record Breaker.
1t was an immense throng that
attended today's game at the Bos-
ton Braves park, loaned to the
Red Sox for the worlds series
games because of its unusual size.
The crowd easily exceeded any
that turned out for the two
worlds series games here last
year, when the Braves won The
title. There were 10000 persons
in the lot when the first ball was
tossed across the plate by Mayor
Curley.
Stock First at Bat.
Stock, the husky third sacker
for the Phillies, was first man at
bat. He laid on one of Leonard's
prize straight balls, sending 1t to
the far gardens for double.
Stock took third on Bancroft's in
field out but died there. Paskeit
fouling and Cravath succumbins
to Leonard's curves.
The next inning went swiftly,
no one reaching first until Lewis
got there on a dinky single In the
second. Lewis deprecated Burns
throwing arm, however, and was
caught trying to steal second.
Ties Score In Fourth.
Burns started things for the
Phillies in the third. His ain
gle, coupled with Hoblitzers error
on Alexander's intended sacrifice,
left both he and the star twirler
on bases. Stocks sacrifice ad-
vanced both runners, and Ban
croft's timely single brought
Burns home. He had been as
sisted perfectly all the way
around.
Boston tied up the score In the
fourth. Speaker, the heavy hit
ter of the Red Sox, slammed a
three Dagger to the deep center
field and came home on Hoblit-
zel's long fly to center.
Speaker Gets Single.
Speaker came up again as first
Boston batsman In the seventh
aud lined out q single.
Hobby" HoblitzeI attempted to
sacrifice him to second, but
Burns. by piece of brilliant
fielding, sent the ball to second
and accomplished a double play
on Nfehoffs peg back to first.
