Chicago, oct 9.-The world baseball

fly from Redland field, Cincinnati.
next season. Pat Morans athletes IN
vaded hostile territory today and
cornered the elgnth and aecidlnS
game against the Chicago Waite SoX
by Il score of 10 to 8.
As expert baseball it was as funny
as sack race. 1t would never have
happened just as it did II the sun had
not entered the lists and blinded the
visiting fielders. It was all the funnierI
for the reason that the Sox were nine
runs behind at the time.
The Reds, after dropping TWO games
on their own grounds on tne banks of
the ohio, permitting the Sox TO get
back in the running for the big en-
blem, started after the deciding game
at the onset, They descended on
Claude williams left-handed offerings
with a determination which sent hlm
into seclusion before the third man
went out and Bill James who hurts
from the other side, was trotted out
Three runs were scored off WllliamsI
and one off James.
Longest of Series.
1t was the latter's first appearance
in the series, and he led a terrific life
until the sixth, when with two men
on the sacks he was given the beckon-
ing finger by Manager Gleason and
Roy wilkinson, also fight-hander,
came forth to remain through the rest
of the game. The Reds continued their
onslaught and sent three runs across
the rubber. In the seventh the rahBy
hurler was somewhat wild and walked
two men, but no runs were scored byI
the chamnions-to be. In the eighth
they annexed another and let IL go at
that. Their position was SO secure
that they appeared tntifferant e~"H

Williams Driven Out.
Rath started the first inning for the
Reds by popping out to Risberg. Dau-
bert took a grim swing at the sphere
and singled to center. 1t was the be-
ginning of the end. Groh picked out
another affable offering and sent i'll
also into the right garden, Daubert
swinging around to third. The mighty
Roush declared himself in on the on
sIaught with a double to right scor-
ing Daubert with the first run of the
game. Grah on the throw TO the plate,
went to third. Duncan, observing that
the left field had been Disseminated

the umpire that he also should have

The runners on second and third
looked weary when Weaver was called
out. but perked up when Jackson
grasped his bat and faced Eller. The
best the slugger could do on this occa-
sion was a pop fly to short. FeIsen
was even less able, for he struck out

of hits at the right time lost hope right
there.
