Card'S Victory
Reduces Lead of
HatbnSh Team

St Louis, July 1.-THE Brooklyn
Robins had their lead in the National
League reduced a bit when the Car
dinals defeated them ny score of to
2 here this afternoon. The Phillles
dipped their colors to the Chicago
Cubs, but the Boston Braves, winning
over the Pirates, rose into second posi-
ton, a. points behind the leaders. II
was the final game of the series, and
Brooklyn departed for Chicago to-
night.
Ed Appleton, who only recently gave
up the badger haircut of Texas for the
feather edged style of the cities. worked
for the Robins, and for four innings he
was lord and master of all he surveyed.
In that time he parcelled out just two
hits, but he was affected by the sitting
heat and weakened so badly in the fifth
that four runs were made off HIM.
These were plenty, it proved, but as
precautionary measure the Cards put
two more over in the eighth. and sewed
up the game right then and there.
Steamboat Bill Williams. the pilot of
the Nancy Lee, opposed the Lone Star
State entry, and pitched great ball
right down the line. II was not until
the seventh inning that the Robins
managed to break down his defence,
and then only one run resulted. In the
eighth another tally came through, but
these manifestly were insufficient.
The Cards cast an anchor to wind
ward in the fifth frame by scoring four
runs. Gonzales walked, but was forced
out by Corhan. Williams walked, but
he, too, was forced, and the situation
was not compromising for the Cards.
But YOU never can tell in baseball.
Bethel. who forced Williams, stole sec
ond. and Bescher also trundled, filling
the bags. Smith tripled, cleaning the
bags. and Miller singled, scoring Smith.
These TALES laid the foundation for
the edifice which was finished in the
eighth frame.
The score follows:

RUDE Benton Outpitches
Schneider, of Reds, in
Ten-Inning Fray.

Cincinnati, July 1.-the New York
Giants took up the business of winning
again this afternoon, but found il nee
essary 10 form a partnership agreement
with Wade Killifer, who was stationed
in centre field. 1t was Killifer's dis
NAL error on a line single by busting
Rennie Kauff which enabled George
Burns to tally the run which prove nee
essary 20 victory.
The score was to ., after thrill
ing battle of ten innings, in which
Rube Benton, the Carolina southpaw,
outpitched Pete Schneider. Fewer than
two thousand fans were in the stands.
Benton was the first man to face fire
in the final frame, but his third strike
was as half-hearted as his first, and
certainly as poorly directed. Burns,
however, had better luck. He cracked
the ball right on the nose for a clean
single, and then kauf came up. Schnel-
der tried Kauif on a high ball. well
on the outside, for that is supposed
to be his weakness.
Benny took a clean and healthy wal
lop at the ball, and it sped over second
base on line into centre field. KILL
fer came swooping in on the ball. He
had his plan for cutting down Burns
at third base all formulated, but, alas
for the best laid plans OF mice and
men!
kilIifer a Sieve.
The ball trickled through Wade's
frenzied clutch, and right then and
there Cincinnati bid long farewell
to the old ball game. Burns scored and
Kauff rambled to second. kauff took
third on an out, but ne never got any
further.
Benton went at the Reds with fresh
courage in the last half of the frame,
and stopped them even shorter than
he had stopped them in all except the
sixth inning, when they got him for a
couple of runs on three perfectly good
hits.
RUDE pitched a slashing game. He
was hard hit, but his nerve never de-
serted him for an instant. In fact, the
sight of hostile runners on the lines
nerved him to greater effort than ever
The fans were In frenzied state up
to the last minute, for Benton threat
eneu 10 dow lne WOIhS at ALMOST any
time.
The swarthy skinned Pete Schneider
went along in his own painstaking
manner, wabbling bit now and then,
but holding to the course fairly well.
He spotted the Giants a lead of two
runs in the early innings, only to hold
them down while his mates knotted the
count in the sixth. Pete might have
carried the game along indefinitely had
il not been for the error by Killifer.
Hal Chase set about showing the
fans once more that he was real first
sacker He worked around the first
bag in his usual form. much TO the de-
light of the fans. His one -handed grab
of crazy heave by Bob Fisher in the
seventh was a classic. Doyle and Doc
Ian were active workers IN the pastme
for the Giants.
New York got its first run in the sec
ond inning. Doyle walked, and reached
second on Doolan's sacrifice bunt. For
some reason Chase tried for Doyle at
the midway, but his throw was a bit

scrimmage. The recruit failed to al
low a hit until the fifth. when Gun
bingham, Witt and Heilman in success
sion singled run across. But the
Yank pitcher quickly recovered his
poise by retiring Veach and Cobb in
order. Baker, Magee and Alexander
drove over the first three Yankees to
score, but after the fourth inning
Donovan's club had a hard time in the
pinches.
In the sixth Gedeon was hit, and
Baumann drove him TO third with a
double.' Yet, with nobody out, the
leaders were held scoreless. With the
bases full Magee was called out on
strikes. much to his annoyance, as the
third strike looked TO be badly out of
focus. This incident led TO display
of passionate oratory between Lee and
Hughey Jennings, but no blows were
struck. 1t was a passage of tongues
and not of arms, and Magee was biding
his time against the closing round.
II was in this game-the third inn
ing, 10 be absolutely exact-that

but he held to the ball. Whether he
replaced the divots is now known. This
was the star fielding play of a busy
day, and as such received its due re-
ward from the stands.
The Yanks should have won in the
tenth. High singled here, and reached
second on an error by Mckee. Peck's
infeld out sent him to third. Pipp
was passed. and Gedeon smashed a
line drive toward left which went di-
rect to Bush for an easy double play.
Starting the last of the twelfth,
Magee belted double to centre. High
sacrificed, and Peck then slashed a
line hit TO right centre for the game.
In spite of Bakers absence, the
Yanks will go on after the Tigers in
four more games. RUDE Oldring will
don the harness this afternoon, and
either Boone or Baumann will take care
of third base until J. F. b. returns.
