DELMARYIA 1903
Fourth Inning Again is
Crucial in World Series

The pitching Of Rube Benton in yes
lerday's game at the Polo Grounds
resulted in a severe setback for the
American Leaguers in the chase for
The worlds pennant and inTpired the
Giants and their myriad supporters
with new hope. Cicotte's defeat,
while not overwhelming will have a
strong moral effect on the attitude of
the Giants IN the remainder OF the
games. Although the G ants got one
Hra run in the fourth frame was
earned on Robertson's triple and
Holke's double.
As the White Sox never got two
hits in any inning and never got a
man as far as third in the entire
game, they would have been shut out,
to 0, even without the wild throw
by Cicotte that enabled Holke to
score.
The White sox in their practice
batted against Wolfgang. a right
handler and Claude Williams, a south
paw, with the idea of being prepared
for any kind OF delivery. As soon as
the hand Of the right field clock
reached the figure KLEIN adjusted
his mask and pad and got behind the
plate. O'Boughlin went to first base,
Evans 10 second and RI gler to third
After which KLEIN called Play Balll'
