RUTH MAKES A NEW
RECORD FOR SERIES

Babe Ruth. the massive southpaw
hitter extraordinary of the Red
Sox, has established a new record
for pitching consecutive runless in
nings in world series games.
Christy Mathewson. in 1905. pitched
three nine-inning games against the
Athletics without being scored upon.
His next appearance in a world
series was the opening battle
against the Athletics in 1911. The
Mackmen scored in the second in
ming. This gave Matty a record OF
IS runless innings.
By holding the Cubs runless yes
terday for seven frames, Ruth beat
Matty's record by one inning. In
1916, pitching against the Dodgers,
Ruth. after being scored upon in
the first inning, twirled Is runless
innings. In the opening game of
the present series Babe pitched nine
more runless innings. These. with
the seven yesterday. gave him e to-
tai OF 90 consecutive scoreless in
nings.
