of Eppa Rixey

Philadelphia, April 21.-Buc Wheat
mighty left fielder of the Brooklyn
Robins, was the leading factor IN the
victory of his team over the Phillies
here this afternoon. The big Cherokee
ran amuck with his bat, and before the
Phillies could stop him he accounted
for three runs with three rousing hits
one of which was rollicking triple
that tore a few splinters out OF the
centre field fence. The rest or the
Brooklyn cast got together and by
mighty effort produced another tally
The final score was 4 to !.
The entire afternoon was devoted 10
free and reckless hitting. The Robins,
however, made one more hit than ala
the home talent and made their wal
lops count to better advantage.

Only TtUo Hits

Benny Ksuff on the shin in the second
part of this same inning. After Holke
popped to Tyler, trying to sacrifice, and
Rariden drifted TO Magee. Benny was
foiled on an attempt TO steal. Maran-
Vile. who was in rare form at taking
throws and who saved Gowdy several
times when the catcher's pegs were
away off the mark. made a particularly
commendable one-handed play on kauf
at this time.
Fletcher's error put Meanwhile on in
the third inning. But two were already
down, and the Rabbit was cut down by
Rariden when he tried to steal. The
same fate happened TO Herzog, who
singled with two out in the second part.
A great play by Herzog when Massey
hunted to start the fourth inning killed
of a hit and saved Anderson trouble.
Bailey followed with long double over
Kauff's head. This hit would have
scored a fast men from first. To get
his man Herzog was forced TO make
barehanded stab and an undetermined
throw while at top speed. This play
of Herzog drew the sting from the sue
ceeding two-base hit, for Magee fouled
high to Rariden, while Honey whitfield.
Walter Holke had good chance TO
start something in this same fourth,
but he hit straight at Konetchy. Tim
norman was hit by a pitched ball with
only one out, and after Heine was
forced by Fletcher at second Kauff
drew his base.
Two Errors in Row
A brace of infeld errors by the
Giants starting the sixth failed to un-
settle Anderson. An easy grounder
from Tyler, the first batter, dribbled
through Zimmerman. Maranville popped
70 Holke, trying to sacrifice, but Holke
threw wildly past Herzog, who covered
first, on an attempt to double Tyler of
that station. The ball rolled to the
stand and Tyler got second easily. Mas
sey grounded TO short, and Magee lined
to Robertson after Bailey walked.
In New York's half of the sixth, with
one out. Robertson got the lucky
double that Magee missed because OF
the sun. Zimmerman singled to left
for the run. Heine was caught steal
ing. Then came the seventh and the
arSument over Red Smiths near two
bagger. Smith finally famed, with
Konetchy on first; two forced-outs at
second retired the Braves.
TYLER walked to start the eighth. He
was tagged on the line when Herzog
folded Maranville's grounder. But
Buck. in trying for a double play, threw
wildly and the Rabbit reached second.
Two easy flies ended Boston's last OPP
portunity.
In the seventh and eighth innings the
Giants we're retired in order. Boston
went out the same way in the ninth.
Burns contributed a couple of fancy
catches off Magee and Konetchy respec-
lively for the first two of these outs.
