BOSTON, Mass. Oct, Tn the
first game of the worl1 series, in
which the only real interesting fea-
ture was the great rally made by
Brooklyn in the ninth inning the Bos-
ton Americans, winner of the Amer
lean League pennant, took ne-game
lead over Brooklyn, winners of the Ma
tional League, by a score of to 5.
Before a crowd of approximately
$4,000 fans, the two teams fought out
rather tiresome game, extending
over two hours, and the fans were
out of the grounds almost in STAN
pede at the beginning Of the ninth
inning, when, with the score to l
in favor of Boston little was expect
ed, But Brooklyn staged ninth in
ming rally which fell short only one
run and which ended with three men
on bases and the next to the best
batter in the National League, Dau
bert. at bat Fans held their breath
for the first time as the heavy-hittting
Brooklyn first-sacker whacked at the
ball. and then ended the game with
all bases occupied by hitting a slow
one to the infield. Before this was
done, however, Shore, who had pitch
ed a very good game, had been driv-
en- from the box and Thomas had re
lieved Cady behind the plate.
Marquard was selected by Manager
RobiGson tc do the pitching for Brook

freely, he pitched even a better game
throughout than his opponent. but the
support accorded him was rather poor,
especially in the sixth inning, when
two glaring infield errors were di
rectly responsible for as many runs.
