afternoon. They hammered the Pirate
hurlers for six runs in the seventh inning
and two in the eighth. Up to the seventh
frame the game was evenly CONTESTED.
but Besdek lost confidence in Frank MIL
Ter after he had been hit for one run In
the seventh. benched him and sent Bill
Evans to the mound.
Evans was the man the Giants had
been waiting for. and the welcome they
extended to him will not soon be for
gotten by the pitcher and his teammates.
A veritable tornado Of assorted hits new
all over the pasture. and when the last
man was out In that inning the Giants
had added six runs to their score and
had made the game safe for their Victory
column.
They also pounded Evans hard in the
eighth frame. There II no telling how
many runs they would have scored had
he been called on to pitch ninth inning.
Miller had sorely puRRled the Giants
with his change Of pace delivery for six
innings. But for q mum by Terry in the
nth the score would have been to in

past short and Burns received a pass
Then Ross Young banged double to
left which sent Barnes home and ad-
yanoed Burns to third.
This was the signal for Bexdsk to send
out an o s for Evans, who walked to
The mound with the air of resignation of
martyr about to be burned at the stake.
Before his salary wing was even slightly
warm he had passed Chase. which filled
the hassocks with jubilant Giants. Larry
Doyle, who had been suffering from a
headache due to the ball colliding with
his "bean" last week, resumed his place
In the Giant lineup to-day. He was next
at bat, and he proceeded to pound a
sizzling triple to left centre, sending
Burns. Young and Chase scurrying to
the rubber.

Giants Resume the Slaughter.
The Giants resumed operations In the

Baird was out at first. and Kauff. after
getting pass, was thrown out trying
10 steal.
The Pirates made an excellent show
