over the precipice to-day in the most
worlds records and an important S
broken, and that isn't half the story
is mere detail. If you don't bell
events and figure it out for yourself
l. In the first inning, with three
cove Of the name of Elmer Smith soa
scared over a right field netting so
feet above the ground This is the first
time home run, with the bases full,
ever took place in a world series in
so far as the Oldest soothsayer here
can locate the dope
g In the fourth inning, after Kill
dur and Miller had singled with no one
out c. MITCHELL on the hit and run,
siashed line drive to right center
which the Wamby hauled down in time
to complete an unassisted triple play.
After making the catch all that Wamby
mad to do Was to step over, touch sec
ond and then tag the highly astounded
miller who was sprlnting for the bag
Ihis is another world series record,
although the unassisted triple play was
duplicated by Neal Ball, Of Cleveland.
or the afternoon of July 10, 1909.
Dodgers Pound Ball, but
3. The Dodgers ran up fourteen hits
for total Of sixteen bases off Bagby,
and this salvo of saluting swats Welded
precisely one thin tally.
i The Dodgers outbatted the In
dians by fourteen hits to twelve, one
OF Brooklyns hits being unothcially
cTedited. vet the same set of DODGERS
were beaten 3 to |. If this isn't an
other record we'll inhale the score card.
.. The Dodgers hammered out thir-
teen hits without scoring tally. The
fourteenth safe blow was needed to
produce the lone run.
6. In the third inning the Dodgers
laced out three clean hits without get
ting man as far as third base.
Z. In the fourth inning, with John
ston on base, Grimes walked O'Neill
to get whack at Professor Bagby.
The professor promptly retaliated by
lifting home run into the center field
stands. 1t was in this fashion that the
merry athletes whiied away another
Indian summer afternoon while an
other Big crowd passed from one cheer
ing fit into another
All this record business may have
been highly pleasing to the populace,
but the defeat OF Burleigh Grimes was
heavy blow to Brooklyn hopes After
the second home run the ancient Bard
was vindicated. He knew something
after all
old Grimes is dead--that good old man
We neer shall see him more,
Since Smith and Bagby hit homo runs
That let those seven score"
Smith Only Chance
With Crimes SO badly battered,
uio H.,
home runs and q triple in four innings
the Dodgers must win with Sherrod
Smith on Monday afternoon or they
will be out in the heart Of the barren
lands without guide
For if Duster Mails stops Sherrod
Smith IN Mondays game, Stanley Covel-
eSkie and his Polish splitter report for
duty on Tuesday, whore only a budding
miracle VIII carry the Dodgers over
the rock-fretted falls. They must beat
Mails with Smith, or Cleveland will
make good her boast of "four straight
here at home"
Having removed the blnkers from
their batting eyes on Saturday, in the
first home game, The Indians reported
to-day with the said blinkers again
missing. They tore into Grimes with
rush that sswed up the battle before
man was out. Jameson and Wamby
singled at the start, Speaker beat out
g bunt, and Elmer Smith followed with
his historic crash thAt sailed across
the right field wall
In the meanwhile Bagby was either
kidding the Dodgers or his luck was
leo per sent pure. For they hit him
with everything but the bat bag and
yet couldn't score run. In round
after round the Dodgers raped out
base hits, only to .have some mate
crack into q double or a triple plav.
They couldn't score with anything, and
yet Bagby looked to be spongy tar
get.
In the second Honey tripled with one
gone and couldn't get home. In the
third Miller singled and Grimes hit
into double play. Olson and Sheehan
man reached third Can you beat it?
Sure That's what Cleveland did.
The crowning disaster came in the
fiith. hllduf and Miller both singled.
Clarence Mitchell fell AGAINST one Of
Bagby's fast ones for line drive that
should have reached the fence. 1t was
not Bagby's fault that It didn't
One-Handed Nab
Kildutf and Miller were both under
steam at the moment and when Wambv
raced over and yanked the drive down
with one hand the STAGE was all set and
decorated for the grand climax.
The triple play that followed was as
simple as lighting cigarette with q
burning candle Thus the feat first
performed by Paul Hines, of Provi-
dence, and later by Neal Ball, of Cleve-
land, was renewed. 1t was world
series record. but the Dodgers were
not among those leading the cheers
They saw then and there that Fate
