PITCHING RECORDS
 IN FIFTH BATTLE

Chicago, October 6.-'-Hod' Eller's sen-
 sational pitching for Cincinnati in today's
 game of the world series stood out clear
 plate 12 times out of 91 attempts All told,
 two base hit had paved the way for his
 teams four runs in the sixth inning he
 took chances with the Chicago batsmen.
 but in the first five session he was using
 his best brand of Shoots, hops and bend
 CTS on every occasion.
 Of the 4e strikes ahich Filler pitched
 3s came in the first five innings. and half of that number were recorded in the sec ond and third, when he struck out six
 successive batsmen. In the third inning Liebold was the only Sox player to touch the ball. and his best was high foul in the upper tier of the grandstand for strike.
 In the sixth Filler threw only five times. One of these efforts was ball. another was fouled and a fly and two easy
 grounders disposed of the three batters. The big Red twirler missed the plate eighteen times in the first three innings, but in the last six had only seven bad ones called. This was largely due to the i. fact that he was putting practically every
 ball across the plate, and the Chicago
 men quit trying to wait him out. i While Eller's work was unusual Will i Hams pitched fine brand of ball and
 made a creditable record. He had S l strikes in eight innings and only 8 balls, 1 a performance which was far ahead of
 his exhibition at Cincinnati in the second game of thGeseries
 l Williams was working the inside corner constantly, and it was pitch of this species below his knees that Eller lofted
 between Jackson and Felsch after waving 1 weakly at two similar offerings. Williams yielded four hits to Eller's s three struck out three to Eller's nine and 1 gave two bases on balls as compared with Eller's one. Mayer, who pitched the ninth for Chicago. exhibited a lack of control, giving one pass and missing the plate 12 times ot of 21 attempts All told,
 the Chicago pitchers threw 126 times
 Eller got through with 94 throws.

 VICTORY 0F REDS

Chicago, October 6.-The teams left at 10 o'clock tonight for Cincinnati, where the sixth, and perhaps final game of the series is scheduled for tomorrow. If a seventh game is necessary it will be played in Cincinnati Wednesday. The Reds were in a hilarious frame of mind after the game. They slapped each other on the back yelling that tomor- rows game would find them baseball champions of the world
 Twelve special trains were required to transport the baseball players, news paper men and fans to Cincinnati to- night.
 Kid Gleason still wears his cap on the side of his head, but he wasn't much in evidence on the coaching line today. Moran, however, coached his players from the first base line. Eddie Murphy, the Sox pinch hitter, had a chance again today but he famed. He is participating in his fourth world series and will draw a players share of llC ICCClPlo 6OiuS Co odI t"lSC SO far in the series, plus whatever else he may do in the remaining games. When the Sox got two men on bases in the first with only one out. Manager Moran sent Luque, the Cuban pitcher to warm up. But Filler came through with colors flying and pitched record-b break 1 ing ball.
 | Even the Chicago players applauded
 Eller when he returned to the bench after setting a worlds series strike-out record | of six in a row.
 l The crowd gave Filler a great ovation
 when he came to bat in the sixth. He
 connected with a long hit that started
 the Reds to victory. He famed the
 next time up.
 | The crowd of 34 379 was the biggest of the series. There were 13 more persons
 damned into the park than on Saturday
 Every inch of space was occupied and thousands were turned away Scalpers got as much as $20 for a box seat
 Eller retired the sox on five pitched l balls in the sixth.
 l Larry Kopf, the Reds shortstop, got | the first hit of the game for Cincinnati l in the sixth. He singled to right.
 Buck Weaver, the Sox third baseman

 The total attendance for the five games was 157, ,669 The attendance for the three Chicago games was 97.s6S.

Rusther pitched the Reds to g to 1 victory in the opening game of the series and has been clamoring for a return engagement against the Chi cagoans
 Manager Gleason's pitching selection undoubtedly will be Dick Kerr, the diminutive left handler, who scored Chi cago's only victory in the series. He pitched a remarkable game, holding the Reds to three hits and is ready to face them again.
 Its all over but the shouting" said Manager Moran tonight. "Well win again tomorrow, no matter who Gleason pitches.
 My players feel that the worlds championship, nearly within grasp, is already theirs. The Reds have played championship ball all the way through and I am proud of being their man ager.
 Filler pitched one of the greatest games that ever won a worlds Serle'

game today. He couldn't be touched, that's all.
 His feat of striking out six in row will go down in worlds series his tory as one of the greatest achieve ments on a ball field"
 GLEASON HASN'T QUIT
 Manager Gleason of the Sox also gave great credit to Eller, but declared that the Sox were not playing the brand of ball that won them the American league pennant.
 '"The team hasn't shown itself to be the pennant machine that won the American league flag Gleason said. | 'Everything has been against us. The players themselves were not right to- day. But that does not detract from Eller's great pitching. He beat us with great pitching and deserved the vic tory.
 The Sox will fight until the last man is out. Although the odds are against us, we are not quitters. I have every hope that we'll win out yet. Stranger things have happened. l expect to start Kerr tomorrow and if he's right, he'll win"

 Then Dick Kerr came along and went him one better. Jimmy Ring was the next idol, his defeat of the Sox Saturday being equally as good performance. Now comes ''Hod" Filler. the strong arm ''shineball artist, and turns in what will probably go down in history as the best game ever pitched in worlds cham pionship. Eller famed nine batters, SIX of them in succession, and allowed but three hits. Whether this record can be beaten today remains to be seen. In any event the game at Cincinnati this after noon should be the closest and most fiercely contested of the series.

"shiner" retired the side on strikes. There is no dou5t that Eller's delivery is more or less of a trick, aided by something De- yond his own natural power.
 There has been a lot of talk about legis- Iating against these trick deliveries, such as the "shiner' and the "spit ball. but every manager who has trick pitcher IS naturally in favor of the tricks.
 Then he famed Williams, Leibold and Collins in the third. Williams and Lei bold were called out by Rigler. They seemed fairly dazed by the fire of the Red gunner. Collins worked Filler for three balls then took a strike. He swung and missed the next two, hitting under the ball several inches.
 After Felsch had gathered in flies from the bats of Daubert and Groh, Buck Weaver booted Rousch's grounder. Rousch stole as Duncan missed swing at pitch and as Schalk missed clutch at the ball. It was scored a passed ball. Taught by his experience of Saturday, when he played in too close touch with Duncan and had one hit over his head, Jackson was stationed way back and had no trouble getting Pats long fly.
 Filler threw out Weaver, breaking his strike out string, and also took care of Jackson's roller. The White Sox were making it easy for Filler by swinging at the rlrSI one. SHOW me CtuD tidl nus the first ball. and I will show you club I can always beat" is truism once ut tered by Christy Matthewson in the days Of his pitching puissance.

Then he singled to right center, Greasy Neale, with his left hand bandaged forced Kopf on roller to Weaver.

A fellow in a right field box reached up with the muzzle of a megaphone and

 EIGHTH STRIKEOUT
 Chick Gandil got baseball as he came to bat in the Sox end of the fifth and in spected it carefully as if trying to dis cover Eller's secret. He showed it to Rigler and Rig wagged his head sol- emnly Chick and Risberk both had their shots at the first ones and so did Schalk. Risberg hit the hardest ball of several
 innings at Groh, but was an easy out. With two down Schalk got the first real hit off Eller a single to left. Williams made Eller's eighth strike-out.
 Filler got big hand as he came to bat in the Reds sixth and Weaver turned and motioned Jackson over toward cen ter. "Shoeless'' Joe did not move over far enough, however Eller swung at the first two balls and missed them, then connected with the next pitch. He smashed the ball on a line in between Jackson and Felsch, but nearest to Jack son. As the big outfielder tore over for
