had 'em going all along the first
eight innings and practically had the
game sewed up. Then after one was
out in the ninth frame Mccarthy

ball finally landed back in the infield
Buck was on third and Mccarthy and
Burns had scored, tying the count.
Our old friend Zimmerman started
the tenth inning with a single. He
was advanced to third and then
scored the winning run on wild
pitch.
While the Sox Ioafed yesterday
Boston increased its lead on the
American league teams by coping
from New York; The game was won
in tenth-inning rally. Boston had
things cinched up until the ninth.
Then New York came through and
tied up things at two all. Boston
went out in the tenth, however, and
won the game all over again. This
victory makes White Sox chances
look right slim. Our home crew has
but four games to play, while Bos-
ton has six. In order to win out the
Sox must take all four games while |
Boston is losing five out of six. If
the leaders win two games out of
the six and Chicago cleans up the
two teams will be tied.
