A multitude Of fly balls were skied
by the Giants yesterday. but one OF
them was a home run by Larry Doyle.
Just ahead of that event Dave Robertson
had made an infeld single. The two
runs which We're flushed by Doyle's bolt
into the far corner of the lower grand
stand, a long and shooting carry. won
The score was . 10 !.
The Giants drilled grooves In the
upper air with their fly ball hitting,
which was as continuous as a fountain
with the pitching Of Babe Adams, a
noted bugbear of theirs, so much so
that seventeen OF them went out OH
flies. but Dawes cutter through the grass
in the first inning and Larry's stupen-
dou drive did the winning work.
In order to max TWO runs suffice there
had to be something more 10y the Giants.
Good pitching and good fielding were
advisable. Both were produced. Ths
patriarchal Matty did the pitching. and
the old fellow had Il day OF regeneration.
He had all the generalship and skill,
control and dipping undulations of his
youth. and with what ne had outwitted
the Pirates and operated with as much
apparent artistry as he ever had. Hence

more finish than he has lone this year.
The only hitting Of solidity by the
Pirates was in the fourth inning. They
summoned a flock OF three singles, hut
those, coming with two out and the
bases free of occupants, were not espe-
cially alarming. Johnston. Hinchman
and Wagner made them and they scored
d run. Anybody in the thinly populated
stands who thought Matty had reached
the end Of his rope saw the error of his
thoughts when Christy made the bal
droop past McCarthy's front and strike
that batter out with two on bases.
