HOW PnCEERS WORKED

The quartet OF Chicago pitchers
pitched 1872 balls In the nine halves OF
innings in which they faced the Giants,
while the pair of New York hurlers
used III in the eight halves which they
pitchers. 1t was very near an even break
IN the matter OF expended energy.
Forty-flve balls were called on Chi
cago and forty-slx on New York.
Thirty strikes accumulated to the
credit of the winners and twenty-five
to the lovers OF the game. The luck Of
foul strikes broke for the Chicago slab
men, as Giant batsmen had sixteen Of
these called on them, while the White
Sox yielded but six. A summary Of the
work Of the pitchers In the Saturday
game follows:

John McGraw must win today and
tomorrow or lose his fourth worlds
series Of five played.
II was in 1905 that the manager
of the Giants first led q team into
a world series conflict. He defeated
the Athlete s through the marvellous
pitching of Christy Mathewson, now
manager OF the Cincinnati Reds.
Since that time MeGraw has met
the Athletics twice and the Red Sox
once, losing each time.
The spell OF the worlds series is
