Memphis. Tenn, March % me
srring world series was continued mere
to day before three thousand fans anu
Mike Donlin. former Giant and now
manager Of the Memphis ChiekasaWs'
The Red Sox. smarting under the TWO
successive defeats suffered by them al
The hands Of the Brooklyn Robins, won
= ten.inning battle by a score Of 70 D.
Ivan Olson and Larry Cheney were
in the main responsible for Boston ;
victory. Ivan picked the wrong time
70 make his customary wild toss to hrst
base. while Larry was in terrlple
state of doubt as 10 where the nome
plate was located and proceeded TO give
three bases on balls and make WIG
pitch. all in the one inning he occupied
the mound.
The Red Sox were the first to score,
making a tally in the opening inning
on a base on balls TO Henricksen,
sacrifice hit by Manager Jack larfy
and long single 10 left field by Den
Gamer. Duffy Lewis made double IN
this same frame. but II went TO waste
when Walker grounded out 70 Dauoer''
Robins Tie in Third
The Robins tied the score in the
third inning after two men were out;
Johnston singled and stole second ana
was brought home by Bunny Faorlque.
Prooklyn went into the lead in the fifth
when Olson and Miller doubled IN sue
cession.
Jack Coombs relieved Marquard in
the box for the Robins in the nth, and
retired his opponents scoreless, but
Duffy Lewis and Clarence Walker made
things most miserable for Jack in the
next frame. With two out, Lewis sin
gled to centre and then stole second.
This display of ambition on his part
proved unnecessary. as Walker smashed
the ball over the left field fence for a
home run.
In the seventh the old see-saw kept
going. and Robbie's men shot out IN
front. Otto Miller made his second Int
of the game, a single to centre, ana
then Jack Coombs drove out wicked
liner to right. Henricksen was all set
70 stop the ball on the bound, but
il went through his legs and rolled
clear to the fence, both Miller and
Coombs counting.
Undaunted. the Red Sox set sail again
in their half of the eighth, and with
the valuable assistance OF Ivan Olson
wiped out the Robins advantage. Jack
Barry hit. an easy bounder down TO
Olson. who had plenty of time to head
off the runner at first, but who buried
his throw. with the result that the ball
went far over Daubert's head, Barry
going all the way to third.
Hobby Goes to First
Al this period Hoblitzell, who had re-
placed Gamer at first for Boston, sim
rled TO right field, scoring his boss.
Lewis sacrificed, and the slugging
Walker raped out a single TO right
that brought the big first baseman over
the rubber
The Robins tied things all up in
knot in their half Of the same session.
Olson tried TO square himself for the
mischief his wild throw had wrought
by TRIPPING TO right field. Miller came
TO the rescue. once more by singing to
right tallying Olson.
Neither side was able to score in the
ninth. When Boston went TO the bat
in the tenth Robbie sent Cheney to the
boy. Larry had been warming up with
Chief Movers for about half an
hour.
Robbie got "hot" after a walk and
a wild pitch. Otto Miller got hotter
after two more bases on balls. and the
fans finally became so "het up that
they demanded instant removal OF this
Cheney person from the box.
The agony which spoiled an enter
tanning ball game occurred IN this
wise: Gamer walked and went 10 sec
ond on a wild pitch. Lewis fled out.
Walker walked. Gardner walked. Scott
flied TO Myers. scoring Walker, and
then Miller threw over Olson's head
in a vain endeavor TO catch Gardner.
Two runs. and ball game won with
out any hits.
The score follows:
