men tanned Mack's former ace for ton
hits and he walked three. hut the Clan,
hits were scattered through eight in
ninss and did no harm. In no round did
the National Exhibition Company's team
get more han two hits.
The Giants scored orc run in the first
inning, about tAc frame IN which tho
Colby kohiroor was pressed hard. Burns
walked and two outs pat him around to
third. He scored when Zimmerman
singled to deep short. He.nie stole and
Fletcher singled to entire. but Johns,on's
fine throw caught The Bronx bearcat a,
the pan.
In the fourth inning Benny Kaun did
something which last winter he though,
was as easy as rolling Off a log. He
stuck a home run into the right field

out and Olson sent a gentle hoist to
Burns.
But the blacklist night is jus, before
the dawn. Something happened during
the interval between the sixth ard
seventh innings which made the Dodg-
ers look like "A different bail club. Just
before the B~rooklyns went tn bat in the
seventh the Brooklyn contingent arose
sheepishly. as though half ashamed of
