CTdSneu tnfOugn the nfSC Dv score
the second contest by 4 to 1.
In the first game Art Nehf held the
Pirates safe. The Giants shattered
"Bullets" Miller, and then ran amuck
on the bases, piling up half dozen
runs in one inning. In the second
game "Babe" Adams had a lot on the
Giants, and Rube Benton, who worked
for the Manhattan corporation, was
not so good.
William Lange. who used to be some
thing of an outtielder, was in the park
to watch his nephew. George Kelly
play, and to find out why he has not
been smashing all the fences in the
Polo Grounds, the way his uncle used
to do. But Hal Chase was back on the
job and William was disappointed. He
had to listen to Artie Devlin enthuse
over Frank Frisch, who learned his
business under Devlin at the Fordham
baseball factory.
Six Tallies in Third
The Giants plastered the Pirates
plentifully in the first game, especially
in the third inning, where double steals
interspersed with f1ocks of heavy hit
ting netted the Giants six runs. Nehf.
the lopsided hurler who was shared
from the Braves, started it with a two.
Dagger and mercifully ended it by
striking out the next time around.
For that inning the Giant tank once
more looked the formidable smashing
machine that it was in the early part OF
the season before it stubbed it's radi-
ator on the adamantine Reds Miller,
who started for the Pirates, was per-
emptorily yanked, but Ponder, who re
placed him. did nothing much but
ponder over the sorrowful circum-
stances that threw him in there to be
chewed up.
The raid on the Pirates proceeded in
this order: Nehf drove q double to
right. Burns was safe on Miller'ss
error. Young singled to centre and
Nehf scored. Right then and there
Hugo Bezdek signalled for the de-
parture of Bullets" Miller. But the
carnage continued. Fletcher beat an
infield hit to Pondering Ponder and
Burns beat the throw to the plate.
Zimmerman singled to centre and
Young scored. Frisch beat a roller to
first and Fletcher scored.
Then the Giants started some of
their good, old-fashioned base-running
stunts. Zimmerman and Frsch started
double steal and Zimmerman scored.
Kauff sent Frisch to third with q single
to centre. And again the Giants per
petrated the double steal, Frisch scor-
ing. These plays were staged so
rapidly that the Pirates had hardly
finished gaping in bcwildermcnt over
the first when the second made them
gap again.
Get to Miller Early
The Giants were after Outlets"

Burns started to discourage him with
triple to left centre. Immediately

norman rolled one to Miller and Young
was trapped, but Zim got to second
and scored on single by Frisch.
The Pirates got their lonely run in
the eighth, when Lee, pinching, tripled
to left centre and scored on Bigbee's
out. Whereupon the Giants got an
other in their half OF the inning. Chase.
slashed hit through second. Gonzales
sent him along with a single to left
and Hal scored OH a sacrifice fly by
Nehf.
The new announcer, whose name is
pronounced by himself as Oil Goldboig,
had some difficulty in making the null
titude understand who the batteries for

another void. You hold what | said

Pittboig."
The Pirates emerged from the trance
INTO which the Giant base running had
sent them and came back with rush
in the second game. In the first inning
on swattlng tear. ripped out a triple
to centre and scored Carey. Chase
checked the rush here by stopping
stiff drive by Barbara and beating the
runner to the bag by sliding there first
on his left ear.
In the fourth inning Barbara started
rush of Pirates by driving a two bag
sent him to third. Then Terry rolled
one to Benton. who had Barbara
trapped between third and the plate.
But Frank Snyder tried to emulate
the feat with which Heinie thinner
man gained so much notoriety in a
certain worlds series when he chased
Eddie Collins across the plate with the
winning run. Snyder chased Rarbare
back to third and in the mean time
Terry reached second. Schmidt, who
has been plastering the Giant pitchers
with annoying regularity during this
series, drove a hit to centre and scored
Barbara and Terry.
In the sixth George Burns caused a
ripple of excitement when he made 8
running one-hand catch OF potential
triple by Cutshaw.
