Another Turn

This lucky turn for the N. L. recalls
another financial spasm Of good fortune
which developed In 1919. when. Giants ana
Red sox were battling for the world
series.
In the third game at Boston. with the
score to / in favor OF the Giants in
the ninth inning, the RED sox had two
men on. with two out, when a Red sox
slueger lashed long drive TO deep right
field. Nineteen times out OF 20 that blow
would have gone for three bases. driving
in two runs for Boston victory.
BY one OF those miracle catches Josh
Devore, moving at top speed, snatched
the bail over his shoulder while out Of
position for the catch and saved the
1ame. II Devoro had missed that super-
human stab the Red sox would have
landed the series inside the nrat hve
games, as they promptly won the next
two, and more than $4,000 in gate re-
ceipts would have been lost.
Yet no one could possibly charge any
frame-up on the play, for the Boston
batsman did his part by smashing one on
a line into apparent safe territory. where
only miracle catch saved the day And
frame-ups are not extended to the bor-
derland OF miracles.
