teen games at home We are violating no
intimate confidence TO announce that
the baficd Giants are extremely glad
to 60 away from here to-day, even
though the journey ends Hp with dou-
bic headers IN Brooklyn.
Here within range Of the fragrant
odor Of home cooking II IS one thing
after another. The best the Giants can
90 is 10 carry the combat into extra
innings and then get II in series of
swift uppcrcuts under the right and
left ears. whore the neck lies open TO
assault They dropped their eighth OK
ira session at home yesterday when the
buoyant Braves, led by Johnny Evers
and Johnny Nehf. beat them 20 IN
eleven rounds that popped with action
and fairly reeked with passionate out
bursts.
BY nipping this noisy melee the
Braves made il three out Of four. Yet
IN Boston. far from the Polo Stadium,
where anguish turks in every shadow
the same Giants trimmed the same
Braves four straight. Write out the
answer yourself We've quit guessing
on such dismal theme.
Rube Schauer, pitching brilliantly,
gave Nehf the tussle of his young and
snotless career for ten reels. Through
this space the Rube smeared the Braves
with four hits and only one pass, and
hut for the muff Of a lofty foul by
Raridan would have registered a tidy
shut-out.
II Was Johnny.
Nohf and Schauer occupied important
spots beneath the great white spot
Lrbt. but after all il was John J. Evers.
the Trojan Typhoon, who broke the
stout Giant defence and definitely de-
cided the issue Of battle. After felding
his lob around second with more than
nassinp excellence 10 was Eyers VINO
drove home the winning run IN the
eleventh. and then 20 pack away the
-srrulous grapple on ice II was John D.
Of Troy who took q daring lead on
Schauer a few moments later for
clean steal Of home. The bases were
we'll hacked at the time. with two out
and Red Smith up. Johnny danced up
and down as if bent upon annoying !he
Rube. and then. after the manner OF
streak under way. whirled on for the
plate. where a long slide carried MIN

The athletes failed TO occupy the en-

sJdressing both coops, from which
steamv orations were hurled into his
ouiverinr ears. There seemed TO be

the batsmen and the cstchers insisted
with considerable emotion that II was

announce with his famous uppercut'
"Tbat ball was two feet wide!" the out
ragged athlete would howl. "A dll,

Affairs drifted or surged along IN
this fashion until the exploding polnV
was reached in the seventh. AT TINS

the field, and as Lsnk Hank moved
away Lord Bill observed Fred Snod-

was not as hard nor as lumpy as the
vyav of the Gowdy, for the new catcher
let Byron severely alone.
Another outbreak was built around
T. Ouigley in the sixth. Schauer
opened this charge with q bounder near
second. Johnny Evers helded the ball
almost back of the bag, back on the

nuick thinking and quicker team play
gave il a chance, but there were loud
and painful outcries when Quigley
called the Rube out.
