In Yesterdays game Benton pitched
good ball, only four hits being secured
by the White Sox during the five in.
nings he worked, one each in the first
and second innings and two in the
fourth. The punching of the two hits
in the fourth, particularly Gandil s
smashing single into rightfeld, coupled
with errors and bonehead plays. on the
part of the men behind Benton, spelled
disaster and brought defeat TO the
Giants. The three runs were sufficient
to win the game. go.
Perritt allowed no safety in his first
two innings on the mound, In the
eighth the Sox secured a hit and in the
ninth two safeties, when the fourth
aud last run of the game was scored.

by walking two men and allowing Her.
zOg to touch him for triple, which
SCORED the two runs made by the
Giants. in the game. The only other
extra base hit of the game was made
by Holke.

pitchers however, for he sent four
Giants back to the bench, while Ben
ton accounted for two and Perritt
struck out one man. ~ =,
~ Yesterdays was Faber 5 second VIC
tory. He also contributed largely to
the Sox victory last Saturday in Chi.
cago when he went into the box in the
eighth and held New York hitless and
scoreless for the remainder of the game.
He will go down in history as the
pitching hero of the 1917 series. CT.
cote will be accorded close second
honors, for he won the first game Of
the series and contributed greatly In
other victories of the season. He
pitched twenty-three innings. -
Eddie Collins, captain and second
baseman of the White Sox, played a
careful and consistent game through,
out the series, accepting many chances
without an error. He was also a mas.
ter with the willow and hit often in

New York keystone guardian, comes
nowhere in comparison with Collins.
