BrOuklvn Nationals turned upon the
Boston Americans to-day and WrcSled
victory from the Red SOX by Il score

afternoon and, with the plauditS Of the
home fans ringing in their ears, they
baIted OUT Il victory with savage NlGur,
swinging their bludgcons With such
effectiveness that neither lhC pitching
staff nor the Stonewall defense uG lie
Red SoX could hold Them in check.
Hits rang off their bats with the snap
and dcadinrSS Of exploding shrapKci,
and while the invaders made Il deter
mined resistance, they were forced to
bow to the superior playing OF the
winners.
As 4 result of Drooklyns triumph,

WAS followed by one Of the most cX'

Boston Rooters Get Out.
Across the field the Royal ROoterS Of
Boston. undauntcd by defeat, or by the
thousands OF their rivals, struck up the
famous "TesSie" song and march, and
soon the park was filled with parading
battallons. After Il number OF ma
ncuvers the adherenlS Of the two clubs
met in midtield and after IN inter,
change of cheers, good naturedly bonn
barded each other with cushions
The demonstration made up in part
for the lack Of the thrilling features
which lifted the first two contests 5
of the series out Of the rank Of or
dinary baseball conflicts. There was
missing in the third game the tense

which dominated the preceding clash
