Ye shades Of old Joe McGinnity! II
looked like the good old days Of 1904
and 1905 on the Polo Grounds yesterday
when after easily defeating Brooklyn by
q score of 6 to I In the first half OF n
double header RUDE Benton started
warming up for the second tin. The
Rcdiand Renegade again pitched a clever
game, but his time he was forced to bow
to another left handed RUDE. who was
no other than our old pal, Reuben de
Marquis. Riverside Richard won the
faltering Dodgers an even break on the
day by winning the sunset game by a
score OF . to l..
We don't want to get into my argu-
ments. but as far as we can recall 1t
Rube Benton is the first pitcher to at
tempt the iron man stunt on the Fabian
meadow since McGinnity stopped doing
at the finish as he was at the start.
though Garrulous Herrmann's old motor
cycle rider was hit much harder In the
second melee than in the first.
Only four OF his left handed hooks
were pushed back at him for hits In the
first game, though in the second section
the Flatbush boys hit him with much
more vigor. They cracked out ten
bingles. Benton issued only two passes

As the Pills were idle In Boston the
Dodgers surrendered their half OF the
lead TO Moran's Daisies. who now sit
on the apex Of the amiablc Governor
Tcner's league entirely alone. How
ever, their margin IL as slender as Carl

The defeat plastered on the Superbas
In the first game was only the second
game the Flatbush Fusileers have blown
on the Polo Grounds this year. and they
sure blew that one. Even their sup
porters were ashamed Of them. 1t
wasn't the score by which Brooklyn lost
that made their own rooters moan. nor
the errors. but the ~listless. sllpshod way
In which they went about their work.
No team we have seen this season played
any worse ball than did the Superbas in
the second and third rounds Of the early
6ame.
AS a tipon IN how bad they were IN
this round. Arthur Fletcher. who is no
Ty Cobb or Frank Gilhooley on the

without a play being mad on him In
the third inning. As Ar,ie stole second,
Miller dropped Cheney's pitch for a
short passed ball. When he stole third
a short wild pitch hoped OF the edge

on a doubfn steal Olson was not satisfied
to mum Miller's throw, but batted 1, over
