Will. there was little II any ad-
vantage between tho two pitchers. It APP
peared TO many as though Benton had
moro on the ball than Cicotte. His de-
livery came up with wide. sweeping
curves or broke with almost right angle
slantS which had the White SoN missing
or popping up most of the time. The
Chicago twirler varied his pitching 10
q greater extent than Benton and his
control was as perfect as usual To
those who saw him work in tho first corr
test. 1t appeared as though he did not
have as sharp curve or break as on
Saturday, when he turned back tho
Giants with seven hits and one run. His
record today was eight hits and two
runs. while Benton let tho White SOI
down with five hits, no two coming In
one inning.
Ccotte famed eight Giants to Ben
tons five. BURNS, Holke and Benton all
fell twice before the Chicago hnrlers
slantS. while Benton's only double strike
ont victim was Cicotte.
The New York team had twice ms
many runners stranded on the bases rs
the White Sox, the count being eight to
four. Robertson led all the players with
three hits in four times at bat for
total nf five bases. while Of ChicaEo's
five hits. Eddie Collins and Weaver each
secured two. Neither Kau1 nor Jack
son had fielding chance and Robertson
stole the only base purloined. Neither
pitcher gave a hase on balls, and none
Of tho Ave errors contributed In any way
to the score.
