Arizona republican., 1920-10-12

The winning of the game can be traced to shis additional edge in bat ting on the part of the Indians for the difference in the hitting power of the two contenders today eventually spelled the difference between the soli- tary run of Cleveland and the string of ciphers which recorded BrooElyn's efforts to connect with 'Tuster' Mails wide sweeps and sharp breaking blenders.
 The Indians team batting average in the sixth game was the same as that of Sunday, PAT, but the result was one run instead of the eight accumulated i yesterday.
 Brooklyn, on the other hand, slumped before the baffling delivery of Mails from .240 to .214.
 Mails Had Good Support
 The credit for the victory cannot. | however, be recorded entirely to Mails superiority over Sherry Smith, for the l Cleveland pitcher was backed by better blend of team defense than that behind the National league boxman.
 Seven Brooklyns were left stranded
