Reds Star Infelder

Hams were punched on Williams in the sixth. One error was handed to Felsch in this inning, but the scoring was too liberal for such an important series Felsch should have had two errors in this inning and Lynn one.
 No worlds series ever saw any bet ter pitching than was seen in the hrst five innings, when Eller and Williams were moving down opposing batters as quickly as they appeared at the plate. Up to the sixth only two hits had been made off Eller and one off Williams.
 It was merely a case of waiting 10 see who would get the breaks, and in this case it was the Sox who made the breaks for Cincinnati. That has been the strong feature of the Reds play ing all through the present series. When given the foundation of a big in- ming the Reds hopped on it. On the other hand the SoX have booted all their opportunities. They just can't hit Moran's pitching supermen in the pinch
 Feature of Reds Play.
 But as a matter of fact that has been a feature of Cincinnatis play all through the 1919 National league sea- son. It has been a great club to win in one big inning. Frequently when they were three or four runs behind near the finish of the game one juicy inning would enable them to snatch the game out of the jaws of defeat.
 DiSsecting that sixth inning, it may be seen how the SoX could have pull ed Williams out of the hole with sharper fielding. Instead they went to pieces and did all they could to make things harder for him. The Chicago players had such an inning behind Ci- cote in the fifth game of the 1917 series, but later the Giants pulled the same kind of stuff behind Sallee and enabled the SoX to win the game.
 Williams had two strikes and no balls on Filler when Hod opened the sixth with a long fly to left center. The hit rather surprised the crowd, as on the previous pitch Filler had made a sort of half hearted stab for the ball after it had reached Schalk's glove But he got a good hold of the next one and got it over Jackson's head. Joe has been playing batsmen splen- didly in this series but he was in too far for Eller, a, fellow who hits the bail hard when he lands or it.
 The ball got away from Jackson and Felsch fielded it in. His throw was high and Risberg muffed it. l1ller,. who had stopped at second, then took q chance
 Tcisc!, Hurts Rep.
 Worlds series are makers of base ball regulations, but they also are destroyers of reputation. Hap Felsch was regarded as basebalrs greatest center fielder next to Iris Speaker before this series, but he will have a hard time proving it after yesterdays game. One hit in five games doesn't help his reputation as slugger, either
 After that one terrible inning Will Hams came back and retired the side in order in the seventh and eighth innings It was tough to lose such game, but it would have been even tougher had Eller lost. Pitching is likely to be good on both sides in a series like this, and, the team which is able to stand up is the one which will win.
 The Sox have been talking a lot about hard luck and failing to get breaks. But the fact remains that they have been absolute failures in the pinches themselves. They have done no consecutive hitting. Their pitching since the first game has been good enough to win any series had the rest of the team lived Up to it's reputation.
 Tn the first game the Reds made fourteen hits; in the next four Gin cinnati made sixteen bingles. Will Hams lost two four hit games, Ci-
