ONE WEIRD INNING.
IS FATAL TO GIANTS
IN TILT WITH CARDS

inning OF the game at the POLO
Grounds yesterday the Giants infield'
began to shake as. If At were in the
q.
'Ai. oeS %
nervousness was on the ST. LOUIS
Cardinals got the jump and wound
up the afternoons festivities by win
ming the clash by a score of s to 2.
Fletcher and Herzog were the put
ter1ngered fellows who mussed up
the game SO sadly. Each contributed
two errors while the Cardinals roll
licked merrily around the base paths.
Pol Perritt was pitching, and natur-
ally. he was so disconnected at the
shameful support he was getting that
couple OF hits were pried from him
at q most ihopportune time.
In their half of the first the Giants
set out to catch up on the enemy, and
after batting specialized Lee Meadows
on the mound, Gene Packard came in
and immediately caused the Giants to
change their minds.
That first inning was q nightmare
Long was safe when Fletcher 1nggled
his bounder and then Jack Smith
forced Long. FLETCHER unassisp ed.
That happened to be the only good
thing that Fletcher did for the fol-
lowing is minutes. Miller rolled to
Fletcher, who made a wierd toss to
Herzog and Charley muffed the throw
and missed the force out on Smith.
Hornsby shot a single to short centre,
\ Benny Kauff just losing the ball on
the top of the aisles. This filled the
bases.
fcruise then hit another bouncer to
F4etcher and by this time that section
