sure single. This failure of the inheld
to work together upset the whole team
ana Scott in particular. for he was
quick to realize his lost opportunity.
Another notable feature Of the play
VAS the failure OF both teams to hit
the ball hard aud safe when ricn were

tors OF both clubs put up weak efforts
when clean smash would have
brought the runner home. This was
particularly true of the Red Sox with
their nine men left on bases. That this
was not entirely due TO the puzzlinG
delivery Of Alexander was Icmonstrat-

batters ut other and less opportunc
periods. The Phillies, with tribe
more than 30 per cent Of the hits made
by their opponents, scored three times
